Recipe from Rome

Today we were fortunate to have guest that has moved to Canada from Rome, share with us a wonderful summertime pasta recipe that would pair up fantastically a cold glass (or bottle!) of  our Ghost of the Bogs white cranberry wine.

Authentic PASTA PRIMAVERA

Ingredients:  Fresh tomatoes, garlic and fresh basil and your favourite semolina pasta.

Boil and cook the pasta al dente

While you are cooking the pasta, crush (in crusher, or a quick few zaps in the food processor should do) tomatoes, leaving the skin on.  Blend in fresh minced garlic (to taste), and add freshly chopped basil (to taste).  Spoon over pasta and serve.

Authentic Primavera sauce is to be served uncooked and room temperature, for those hot summer evenings…  A taste of Italy with the perfect glass of cranberry wine.  Quick and easy.  ~Enjoy~

Welcome to our Winery

The Fort Wine Co. is one of British Columbia’s premier Fruit Wineries. With an abundance of cranberries and an entrepreneurial drive, the winery was founded in 2001 by tugboat captain & cranberry farmer Wade Bauck. With positive feedback of the first cranberry wine, the varieties expanded to include other local berries such as blueberries and raspberries. Nine years later, with the support of friends and family, the Fort Wine Co. now produces 11 different wines while supporting local berry farms and fruit farmers all over British Columbia.

With 11 wines in total we hope that we can find something suitable for every palate. However, if you do not drink alcohol or enjoy wine of the fruit variety, we also have many interesting things to see and purchase. The retail store has everything from wine accessories to jellies, jams and tapenades. Napkins, crackers and chocolate – covered cranberries are just a few other items that we carry in-store that is worth checking out to find the perfect gem you’ve been looking for.

We are open seven days a week, 12 – 6 pm all year round with our summer hours extending an hour or two either way.
