Check out this bottle of wine I found the other day. I HAD to buy it, bring it home and take a pic of it for you guys.

Cheers, Brent

I think that winery is right in, or at least near my hometown of Kelowna BC.

I believe they make some fairly good wine, the winery was bought up by a large mega company a while back, but on this occasion it has only let to better equipment, and marketing.

How do you like the wine?

Cheers!

I was ammused to see a bottle in an unrelated display just this past week - equine actually. I picked it up to look and see they used a Niagara Falls address and a quick Google just returned "grown in the Niagara Peninsula and bottled by Sawmill Creek -- from Vincor, Canada's largest wine corporation."
Stu - if I were a beting man, I'd say you were right. Originally anyway. But, alas, we live in a global village, big business, megers, buy-outs, no one cares about heritage anymore.
If I hadn't seen a number of your other posts, I'd have graoned - Cheers indeed! Chris

Now that is just way cool, Brent! I'm not much of a wine drinker, much less a connoisseur but, I'd love to have a bottle of that just sitting on the shelf in my shop! :D :cool:

Tell you what guys,
Let’s do a group buy on a case. I’ll drink the wine and you can have all the empties for display.
Thirstily awaiting your replies,
Frank

BTW: I just received my Sawmill Creek hats today, so now I am really cool???
