The GOODS from Road 13 Winery
Oliver, BC | Start the morning of May 5th right with a decadent Bubble Breakfast. Guests will tour the Sparkling Wine Cave and learn about crafting wine in the Traditional Champagne method. At the end of the tour, enjoy a delicious breakfast paired with our award-winning Sparkling Chenin Blanc (orange juice optional). This experience is limited to 36 people and sells out fast. The cost is $45 per person, and the start time is 9am sharp (until 10:30am). What’s more, our Summer Dinner Series is back from May through October! Join Road 13 Vineyards on the 13th of each month as tribute is paid to current and past vintages. These will be paired with sumptuous four-course dinners supplied by the folks at Joy Road Catering, who are just as obsessed with the source of their product as we are! We may be “All About the Dirt,” but Joy Road is “All About Cuisine du Terroir.” No idea what that means? Let us translate: “INCREDIBLY GOOD FOOD.” Sometimes it’s all about the celebration! Tickets are $125. Suppers start at 6:13pm and usually run until 10pm. Reservations for the Bubble Breakfast and the Joy Road suppers are required (250-498-8330).
About Road 13
Originally known as Golden Mile Cellars, Pam and Mick Luckhurst purchased the winery in 2003. Road 13 Vineyards took its new name in recognition of the winery’s specific place within the larger premium growing region of the Golden Mile. Road 13 identifies the winery with its purpose – to express the utterly unique sense of place that is reflected in every aspect of Road 13’s winemaking process. The winery is located six kilometres south of Oliver, BC, at Highway 97 and Road 13. Winemaker Michael Bartier produces 18,000 cases of wine annually in three distinct tiers: Honest John’s, Road 13 varietal and blends, and a premium series called Jackpot. The winery is on a mission which focuses on terroir, by concentrating on farming practices, the site and the soil profile; in other words, “It’s All About The Dirt.” The Luckhursts own and farm 46 acres of vines: the Castle, Home, and Peter’s Vineyard, adjacent to the winery, and the Rockpile Vineyard on Black Sage Road. The winery is open year round. Exclusive barrel room wine tastings are also available by appointment for groups up to ten. For more information or to join the Road 13 Cellar Club, contact the winery at 250.498.8330 or visit www.road13vineyards.com.
