The GOODS from The Waldorf Hotel

Vancouver, BC | The East Van Wine Academy and the Waldorf Hotel are excited to present “Blending Bootcamp: Laughing Stock Vineyards”, co-hosted by Laughing Stock Vineyards’ owner and winemaker David Enns, this Wednesday, August 15th. They say Syrah’s one of the most suitable grapes for the Okanagan, particularly if its aromatics are lifted by a small splash of Viognier. Commonly known as a Côte-Rôtie blend, after the blend’s natural home in France’s Rhône Valley, the Syrah (or Shiraz)-Viognier blend is a worldwide success, gaining popularity through Australian versions and more.

Join Laughing Stock Vineyards’ winemaker David Enns as we tour and sample some of the globe’s more notable Côte-Rôtie blends from France, Australia, Chile and BC (including Laughing Stock’s recent BC Lieutenant Governor Award-winning version ) Afterwards, enjoy the opportunity to build your own blend with tank and barrel samples David’s bringing along, and see how yours stacks up! Recently recommended by Lonely Planet and the BBC as a perfect “antidote to stuffy tasting events,” the East Van Wine Academy offers kick-ass wine events that will add colour to your week and definitely help you find a splash of something you’ll like.

Spots are just $40, and tickets go fast. Grab them and more info at EastVanWineAcademy.com.

About The Waldorf

After 63 years in business, East Vancouver’s Famous Waldorf Hotel has been reimagined as a creative compound where contemporary art, music, food and culture convene under one roof. Special events, unique spaces, great food and hospitality. There’s always something happening at The Waldorf.

Press

“While offering a nod to the hotel’s Polynesian lineage, the Waldorf redux has mercifully sidestepped kitsch to emerge as a landmark destination for creative travelers. A haven for artists, musicians and cultural thrill-seekers, the Waldorf offers an experience not easily forgotten, one that makes you feels as though you’re vacationing in New York rather than the heart of Vancouver’s east side.” – Globe and Mail
