Visit to Liquidity Wines


My reason for visiting Liquidity Wines was to see the images exhibited in the gallery put on by Photo Ark National Geographic. There were some very interesting shot. One that caught my eye was of a California Condor, I played rugby with a team called the Condors.


Other images were seen in the foreground of the signature view from the bistro.

  
Then looking back toward the building.


 Welcome to Liquidity

After growing and selling award winning grapes to other wineries for the past 20 years they decided it was time to make our own. 


100% of Liquidity wines are estate grown and hand harvested. They use sustainable and time-tested viticultural practices to provide the finest growing environment for their vines. Great wines begin with great grapes. The land of Liquidity Wines is rich in history, just as it’s soils are rich in the perfect minerals to grow a range of varietals. 10,000 years ago, glaciers covered the landscape deposited sand and gravel soils onto the south-facing property, creating the ideal growing conditions for fruits.


Their Tasting Room and Bistro are now OPEN DAILY for the 2018 season. This is what Lorraine had to said.


Her Quote:
While at Liquidity winery I took in the wine tasting. The young lady who did the demo was well educated about wines and taught me a few things, I learned that each wine has a special way of being made which give many different aromas from fruit, Earl Grey Tea, spices, cocoa, and even leather.


Naturally I had to purchase a couple of bottles from the eight available.


The Bistro was elegant and the servers very professional which fitted into the atmosphere of white interior highlighting the National Geographic Photos. The vista - view added to our dinning experience.


After arriving home with Lorraine's two bottles we enjoy time out in the yard.



More about their history can be found here. Liquidity Wines. The liquidity vineyard has soil and aspect comparable to the blue mountain vineyards. Slightly higher in elevation, it also commands excellent views of Vaseux Lake and the mountains beyond.
