BlackCloud.ca is up

It's not going to win a bunch of awards for groovy websites but it's a starting point. We will be adding as we go and I have to thank the guys at VIN65 for their enthusiasm.

www.blackcloud.ca


Anybody who drops in for a peek can send us an email and request to be added to our mailing list.



That's the best way to keep informed about:


  • new wines we have planned

  • new locations to buy our Pinot Noir

  • restaurants where you'll find us on the list

  • events featuring our wines.

  • progress with our winery plans
  • how to become an angel investor


My wife and partner has been up in Kamloops this week and has done a great job meeting new customers and setting up accounts. We'll be letting you know where soon.


We met a ton of great people in Vancouver over the wine fest last week. We hope to have Black Cloud Pinot at a number of new locations soon.


Here's a couple of events that have crossed my desk lately that I recommend:


First, of course, one that I'm in. I'll be up in Kelowna joining Julianna Hayes of Vine Living at the next WEST (Wine Education Series of Tastings) event. It'll be April 16 from 7 to 9 at the Wine Museum. I'll present a flight of Township 7 wines and few others (maybe some Black Cloud) and we'll have a discussion on the wines and a few other topics like - what's new on the BC wine scene and how is social media affecting how we access our wine? We'll be pouring wine and sampling food. These are fun and informative events. Tickets are a great value at only $20 for museum members and $25 for non-members. Call the museum directly to reserve 250.868.0441


Can't beat the Kiwis for great wines. Love this event. A region very similar to what we have here in BC.

Not everyone knows the skinny on this up and coming region. This is a great opportunity to piggyback this event on the Okanagan Spring Festival. Easy to hit this event and still be in the Okanagan for other events.
