<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Now in its fifth edition, John Schreiner's Okanagan Wine Tour Guide has more wineries than ever before. Featuring profiles on all the old favourites as well as 30 brand new wineries, the fifth edition remains the most comprehensive guide for visiting the wineries of the Okanagan. In alphabetical order this guide takes you through all the wineries of the Okananan, Similkameen, Thompson River Valleys and the Kootenays with insider tips from Canada's most prolific wine writer.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b><i>The definitive guide to Interior BC wineries, covering the Okanagan, Similkameen, Thompson and Kootenays. With updated maps and travel tips, it's your ultimate glove-box guide, now in a newly expanded and updated edition.</i></b></p><p>For nearly fifteen years <i>Okanagan Wine Tour Guide</i> has been the definitive companion for travelling the winding roads of BC's Interior wine region. In this, the 6th edition, John Schreiner and his new co-author--wine writer, podcaster, and instructor Luke Whittall--chart the latest developments at the oldest wineries and the very first vintages from the newest startups in a region that stretches along Okanagan Lake, west to the Similkameen, north to the Thompson, and east to the Kootenays.</p><p>This edition includes 258 wineries (that's over 40 openings in five years!), revised and updated maps, contact information, tasting room information, and recommendations. From pioneers like Quail's Gate on Mount Boucherie to the newest arrivals like Cliff & Gorge in Lillooet, these stories are as varied as the personalities of the wines themselves--a few vines planted as a retirement project, a few acres purchased on a whim, or a gala grand opening underpinned by years of planning and consultation. What emerges across the guide is the sense of community and the room for wildly different philosophies on everything from growing to fermenting to naming.</p><p>Whether you're paging through the aisles of the local liquor store, sorting your Viogniers from your Syrahs, or relishing a family vineyard's journey from its Quonset-hut years to international acclaim, <i>John Schreiner's Okanagan Wine Tour</i> is the ultimate guide to and celebration of Interior BC wine.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>As tasting rooms start to re-open through the Okanagan, this is an incredibly useful book to guide your way. It's an equally enjoyable window on a world that some of us might not be in a position to visit again for a while. --Christopher Waters, <i>Globe and Mail</i></p><p>Equally useful for those unable to travel to wine country but wanting winery information for future trips, or use it to order wine now, online. --Anthony Gismondi, <i>Vancouver Sun</i></p><p>No better guide. --Tony Aspler, The Wine Guy</p><br>
