When we were in Canada last year with mum and dad, I picked up a fantastic bottle of white wine from the Recline Ridge vineyard (see here) in the Okanagan.
I've been looking for a wine based on the ortega grape ever since - I even hoped to track down another bottle when we were on holiday this year, but it doesn't travel beyond British Columbia unfortunately. Having scoured the supermarkets for a close match (ortega is based on a blend of Muller-Thurgau and Siegerrebe), I've only gone and found an ortega wine right under my nose - it's brewed on Mersea Island (see here)!
Time permitting, guess where I'm taking our friends Martin and Lynn tomorrow or Sunday for lunch?
