Wine art at Rigour and Whimsy

This week’s podcast was recorded last summer at Rigour and Whimsy Winery in Okanagan Falls. This is the unofficial Part 2 from the episode I did with Jess Hopwood from Farm to Glass Wine Tours. If you haven’t heard it, it is totally worth going back to listen to it. I had planned to cut this into Jess’s episode but the tasting went longer than I thought and Jess and I talked WAY longer than I thought so I’ve given it its own podcast.

You will hear the voices you will hear along with Jess and I is Rigour and Whimsy owners Costa Gavaris and Jody Gavaris, the team behind this super-creative winery up behind Peach Cliff in Okanagan Falls. It was tons of fun and the wines were amazing and super-expressive. One of them may even end up in a future book somewhere…
