\"Dan2\"<\/a>We were fortunate to have @DanAlbas<\/a><\/strong> join us last night. He’s the member of parliament instrumental in the passing of Bill C-311 that removed federal restrictions prohibiting Canadians from moving wine purchased for personal use from one province to another.<\/p>\n

You can also find “physical” tastings of BC wines<\/a><\/strong> with various festivals and wine professionals across the country this year.<\/p>\n

Note: All of my reviews are done independently and are not paid for by wineries, wine agents or wine associations. Like other wine writers, I am occasionally asked to moderate an in-person panel or online discussion, like this one, and I may or may not be paid for my time to do so. But moderating a discussion is entirely separate from my actual reviews of the wines, which are done separately and independently. Here’s how I review wines, including what my scores mean, my tasting notes and my review process<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Here are some snippets from the conversation below, though they represent a small portion of a large and vibrant conversation. \"BCwine19A\"<\/a>\"BCwine18\"<\/a>\"BCwine17\"<\/a>\"BCwine16\"<\/a>\"BCwine15\"<\/a>\"BCwine14\"<\/a>\"BCwine19B\"<\/a>\"BCwine13\"<\/a>\"BCwine12B\"<\/a>\"BCwine12A\"<\/a>\"BCwine11\"<\/a>\"BCwine10\"<\/a>\"BCwine7\"<\/a>\"BCwine6\"<\/a>\"BCwine5\"<\/a>\"BCwine4\"<\/a>\"BCwine3\"<\/a><\/p>\n
