Complimentary Blue Mountain Wine tasting Friday Feb 12th at Firefly Maple Ridge


On their 31-hectare estate, Blue Mountain Winery creates complex and age-worthy wines using exclusively estate grown grapes from its South Okanagan vineyard. Blue Mountain strives to create wines that are well balanced and express the terroir and the individual growing season.  By focusing on varietal wines made from Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chadonnay, Gamay Noir, and Pinot Noir  Blue Mountain has produced outstanding wines.

"Exceptional wines will always be the pursuit of Blue Mountain and the Mavety family which is poised to evolve its collective talents for generations to come."

Firefly Fine Wines and Ales Maple Ridge will be hosting a complimentary tasting of three Blue Mountain Wines on Friday February, 12th from 3pm to 6pm.


2008 Pinot Blanc

White peaches and apricot are complemented by butterscotch on the nose and palate. A full mouth feel with apricots turning to peaches on the palate leads into a fresh, long finish.

2008 Pinot Gris
A citrus, tangerine nose with rich, dense tangerine/lemon flavors across the palate and notes of orange peel and spice.

Brut
Fine mousse, with lemon and toasty character on the nose and across the palette, with a crisp lemon finish.
