In the aftermath of Easter, we are so excited to share that the Easter Bunny has brought you our next Tasting Bar Event at Sardis Liquor Store. On Thursday, April 20th we will be featuring the acclaimed French Door Winery!
French Door Estate Winery opened in 2020 after owners Audra and Jason Shull acquired the vineyard and the buildings of Montakarn Estate Winery on Black Sage Road in south Oliver. They renovated the former winery, adding superb winemaking equipment that is needed to make both big red wines and whites packed with flavour.
The 10-acre property is planted with 100% vinifera vines on beautiful, expressive soils that have resulted in rich, lush, and character-driven wines. The white grapes include Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Viognier. The reds are Malbec, Syrah, Cinsault (they are now the second estate winery in British Columbia to have estate Cinsault), Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Pinot Noir.
The French Door name reflects an insight the Shull’s had while visiting wineries in Provence, France. “Why are we even here?” Jason said, “We have Provence in our back yard.” That led them to think of their winery on Black Sage Road as their door to French wine country. “The lavenders, the lake, the orchards, the vineyards … it is identical,” Jason says.
A newer winery with prestigious vineyards, a famous winemaker (Pascal Madevon), and some serious press and industry support!
