Vinica celebrates Rasoul Salehi 🥂

Rasoul Salehi @rasoulak was born and raised in Tehran, Iran in a family of serious foodies and tea lovers. The Iran-Iraq war during his childhood meant all meals were homemade and prepped from scratch. His favourite activities, aside being a helper in the kitchen, were to help Grandma shock fava beans, peel citrus fruit for marmalades, plant edible flowers and veggies, and harvest them. With regular family trips to Europe for his father’s job, Rasoul became exposed to western gastronomy, as well as beer and wine.

He attended university (philosophy of technology @simonfraseru ) in Canada, studying toward his goal working in Canadian academia. Little did Rasoul know that his passion for wine will take over, and shake his world. Blessed with a photographic memory and speed reading, Rasoul would polish off a big wine book or two a week. He quickly accumulated a vast knowledge of wine and the wine business. He gained further wine knowledge on online forums and writers like Robert Parker’s @mark_squires_wine , Wine berserkers and others… his foot has stayed on the gas pedal since those early years and there is no slowing him down for his quest to gain more nuanced understanding of all things winegrowing.

Rasoul has been with the highly respected Le Vieux Pin @levieuxpin and sister winery Lastella @lastellawinery since almost the inception. Last year he started Substrat Wine Company @substratwineco , a passion-based side hustle of bringing in lesser-known wines of Piedmont, German Pinot Noirs, Austrian wines from the coolest zone in Wachau, Portugese wines from Bairada, Azores islands and more…

Thank you Michael Godel (WineAlign) for this great

Thank you Michael Godel (WineAlign) for this great review of our 2019 Vivace Pinot Grigio. Few pairings ideas: oysters, risotto, creamy white sauce pasta with shrimp, carbonara, linguine alla vongole...
Last call to get some ;)

"A wine should live up to its name and La Stella's Vivace succeeds. In the great sea of pinot grigio ubiquity there can be some
with a distinct energy that roll across the palate in waves. This is such a heart breaker, a "lively" PG that seems so much bigger and of more alcohol volume than it really is. The density of fruit and the balanced relationship with a thickness of acidity is how the breakers are developed, far out to sea and only realized just as they approach the shore. This will tumble over you with sudden haste and find you swimming in its juiciness, albeit a metallic oneand as with the best of northeastern Italy, unctuous
to an Adriatic degree. Great fruit and winemaking heed are what make this happen.

Drink 2020-2023.

Tasted September 2020.
Value Rating: 4/5 91 points"

Happiest BC Day from us and the gorgeous landscape

Happiest BC Day from us and the gorgeous landscape we’re lucky enough to work on and take care of each day. Beautiful British Columbia isn’t an exaggeration by any means, and we’re grateful for the climate here that allows us to make wines that challenge stereotypes about Canadian wines. Ways to celebrate the day can include: drinking local, booking a tasting with us, and maybe even just coming to visit us while you explore the Okanagan to witness our magical views! 🍷☀️

The highly anticipated 2019 Leggiero has finally arrived 🌟 an unmissable Chardonnay with a limited production of only 458 cases. Made in an un-oaked fashion (Neutral large oak casks used partially for textural gains and nuance addition), it is a wine that expresses the pure minerality of Chardonnay with beautiful acidity and crisp fruit flavours. Now available for purchase online, or maybe get lucky enough to try it at one of our tastings! Happy weekend 🍷
