The countdown to the 3rd annual Osoyoos Celebrity Wine Festival came to an end a few weeks ago. With travel buddy food reporter Erin Ireland of It’s To Die 4 in my passenger seat, and Metro’s Tonia Mattu in the back, we took off in a MINI Yaletown 4 door Countryman for the most anticipated weekend of the summer (watch video here). Even with 3 girls, It’s To Die 4 banana bread, a mini table and chairs for our picnic, there was still room for our full size luggage.

The Nota Bene Release Party at Black Hills Winery is one of my favourite events of the festival. It’s an afternoon of sampling some of the best food of the weekend, drinking Note Bene (exclusive to Black Hills) and socializing in the sun. I caught up with Rosette Luve of hit song Fire, Crushed, Uh Oh, about her style. Watch here.
After the Nota Bene Release Party, we snuck in a little boating time before the final night’s event at Watermark Resort, The Vinos Wine Film Festival.
…and the countdown for next year has begun.
