The 46th Vancouver International Wine Festival is in full motion at the Trade and Convention Centre .

Today , we examine the fortunes of Pinot Noir in B.C. and its place among the intense international competition.

The notoriously fussy variety has a spotty history of success outside Burgundy because it's been a struggle to duplicate that Pinot ’s ethereal nature.

There wasn’t much wine made in 2023 , with as much as 50 per cent of the crop suffering winter damage across the region.

Meyer Pinot Noir fans can breathe easy.

Meyer Family Pinot will be a valuable touchstone for folks who want a well-made Pinot No. No.13.5 per cent alcohol, this earthy, juicy cherry raspberry red.

Decanter Magazine reports that Jeff Bitter , president of Allied Grape Growers , has urged California growers to speed up vine removal across the Golden State to align with declining demand.

Bitter’s latest plea is for large-scale vineyard reductions in coastal regions.

The oversupply of California grapes collides with declining wine consumption, shifting demographics, health concerns surrounding alcohol, rising competition from cannabis and other beverages.
