regions. With 8,060 acres of grapevines planted and some of the best growing
conditions on the planet, the Okanagan was recently celebrated as the #2 wine
But dont assume that each area in the Valley is the same. From Kelowna to
Penticton to Osoyoos, both the nuances in the wines and the views make touring
the entire region worthwhile. Theres no better time to make that trip than
during the bustle of the fall harvest when the wineries are in full production

And if your visit to the Okanagan
has you feeling particularly
inspired to take up the craft,
youll find plenty of RJS Craft
Winemaking Academy stores in
the region, throughout British
Columbia and across Canada to
put your new-found knowledge
to quick and easy use!

Of course, craft wine isnt the only thing you can make and
stock in your cellar. Making homemade jams, jellies, pickles
and other preserves is also popular among many Canadians
this time of year.
Perhaps the best part of getting into the hobby of canning
is that you can experiment with flavour combinations that
if you love:
you wont find at the grocery store. Why not add a touch
of the unexpected to your jam or jelly recipes this year by
exploring these interesting flavour combinations?

what is an aerator?
An aerator is a wine accessory that increases
exposed wine to more oxygen as you pour it
into your glass. Most often, they are small
devices that are designed to be inserted in the
neck of a wine bottle, acting as a pouring spout.

The Winemakers Trio is the perfect blend of Cabernet
Sauvignon, Syrah and Zinfandel fermented on GenuWine
Winery Crushed Grape Skins. This new world style red has a
nicely integrated balance of tannins and acidity. It features
an inviting blend of vanilla, red berries, and black cherry
on the nose, and it combines the sweet flavours of ripe
raspberry, chocolate, and cherry on the palate.
