A SIP OF RESILIENCE IN EVERY BOTTLE: CRAFTED IN B.C. THANKSGIVING PAIRINGS FROM LEGACY WINERIES

A feast of flavours and a celebration of togetherness: Cheers to the season of giving by pairing gratitude with every pour.

VANCOUVER, BC: This Thanksgiving, the table is about gathering, sharing, and raising a glass in gratitude. British Columbia wineries, Gray Monk Estate Winery, Sandhill Wines, Tinhorn Creek Vineyards and Red Rooster Winery invite Canadians to elevate their tables with thoughtfully paired wines that honour both the flavours of the fall season, and the resilience of the B.C. wine community.

After unprecedented climate events that battered B.C.’s wine industry, devastating vineyards across the Okanagan Valley, these wineries have continued to adapt with grapes and juice sourced from Washington – yet finished with the artistry and care that defines B.C.’s winemaking community. This season, each bottle represents more than a pairing – it is a gesture of gratitude and amplifies the spirit of sharing something special over the Thanksgiving table.

Whether you are enjoying Thanksgiving dinner or simply gathering with friends and family, the right bottle of crafted in BC wine is the perfect pairing to celebrate the season. Crafted in B.C. wines are the perfect Canadian option for festive gatherings this season:

Gray Monk Unwooded Chardonnay (2024, Niagara, ON): Clear and bright with a yellow hue, this crisp wine is perfect for pairing with buttery sides like mashed potatoes or turnip. The fruity aromas additionally pair with quiches and baked fish.
