Our "hallway" wines are ever changing... these are very limited BC
Okanagan wines where we may receive only 1 or 2 cases of a particular
wine and they do not make it onto our shelves, therefore are in
our hallway for special inquiries only. Present "hallway wines"
include limited selections from Laughing stock, Inniskillin
Discover Series, Dunham and Froese, and Sandhill Small Lots. Give us a call or send us an email for
inquiries.

For local delivery (in Kelowna) a place of business is preferred.
If this is not possible and you require a gift to be delivered to a
house, we will contact your gift recipient to arrange a delivery day
and approximate time. Being a controlled substance, arrangements
need to me made with the delivery recipient and it may not be
delivered when you would like, but when it works best for the
recipient. Many times they actually prefer to pick up as we are
in a very central easy access shopping area.
Gift baskets are only delivered locally, although we have other ways
of presenting your gift for shipping such as wooden boxes.

WOW, in our careers we have never seen so many wines reduced in
price from the wineries!
Over 80 wines are on sale in our
store right now, and as you may know, we do not mark up the price
of wines and only charge winery list price! If this is due to
the current economic situation, now is the time to buy those favorites
and stock up for the upcoming Holiday season! Wines are reduced $1-11 a bottle!
Send us an email and we will email you back a spreadsheet with all the
wines on sale.
This is also a great time to ship
since the price reductions would help offset shipping costs.

"As newbies to the Wine Club, this was our first shipment and I just
wanted to tell you that when we opened the box tonight - it was like
Xmas! Only better because a) it's not christmas and b) it's wine!! The Dunham
and Froese Merlot is already a goner. Loved it. Can't wait to
test the rest."
