Wine buyers, collectors and sommeliers take note. From the Scout member mailbag comes news from Heidi Noble and Michael Dinn of Naramata’s Joie Farm:

We are happy to announce that our 2008 Vintage release commences today for the following wines: 2008 A Noble Blend, 2008 Un-Oaked Chardonnay, 2008 Rosé and 2008 Riesling.

Please download the order form from the following link: JOIE 2008 Order Form
and fax it to 1-866-834-4008 or scan it & email it back to [email protected] by February 24th, 2009.

JoieFarm offers a free pick-up day in downtown Vancouver for all Lower Mainland clients. Please indicate on the order form whether you would like to pick up your order on Saturday March 7th, 2009 or have it delivered by courier at your expense. Pick-up details will be sent to you with your order confirmation, via email.

With this year’s release we would like to announce that we have made a small change to our name from Joie Wines to JoieFarm for trademark purposes.

The name JoieFarm reflects the development of our project over a five year period from producing wines out of other winery facilities, exclusively from growers’ grapes, to the building of our own winery and the planting of our own three acre vineyard, from which we will produce our first crop in 2009. JoieFarm also signals the increasing control and improvements we have made to our wines and our deep connection to the place we call home.
