We came here after seeing the winery on the Kettle Valley Train ride…read more It was very busy. You had to pre buy your wine tasting before entering the tasting room, however tasting was only $6 so not bad. We got to taste 5 wines and there were a lot of choices for white wine. We tasted a few that we liked and we all left with 2 bottles a piece. The young man who did our tasting was great and told us a lot about the wine. The lady who cashed us out was wonderful, friendly and told us about their wine points and we got $5 off our purchase for signing up. Great wine, just a bit busy and touristy for me.

The service was decent, not amazing but to be fair they had a wine tour there when we were there and I am sure the group is going to be what they concentrate on.

Our last winery stop of the day was at Three Sisters Winery…read more Tasting fee is a non-refundable $5.00/person (for 5 pours). They have two areas to do their tasting outside; we opted for the tasting inside. Our pourer was younger but very informative and fun. We were given a couple bonus pours. Bottles are in the $19.00 to $45.00 price range. One of the few wineries that show prices with the taxes included. - 2021 Pinot gris - slightly off dry. Fairy solid. - 2021 Bench white - a bit on the sweet side (from the gewurztraminer) with a tropical note. - 2021 Rosé - made from pinot noir grapes. Mostly strawberry and cream notes. - 2020 Pinot noir - medium-bodied with a bit of tartness from the sour cherry. - 2020 Syrah - more full bodied but drier than we expected. The peppercorn came through. - 2020 Tempranillo - more herbaceous, a touch smoky and smooth. They're one of two wineries that do tempranillo in the area. - 2020 Gamay - soft, juicy and hints of berry. We bought a bottle ($25.00) for home. Very chill, solid wines from TSW.

We had reservations for a wine tasting on July 3, 2020…read more When we arrived there was only 1 other table with a party of 4 having a wine tasting. We were escorted to a large table able to accommodate 6 but it was just the 2 of us. When the woman who was doing the presentation arrived she was wearing a mask and said that she would stand further back than the end of the table because of concerns about corona virus. She asked us which wines we would like to sample and she went go get the first wine. She then poured us bit for tasting, quoted the description that was on the sheet and disappeared. She had no other tables that she was doing tastings for. She was doing other chores as there were no other customers that she was taking care of. She came back after 5 to 10 minutes poured the second wine, again basically quoted off the printed sheet and took off again. By the time she came back the 3rd time we were listening to the man who was conducting the tasting at the other table as he had actively engaged the customers and was giving the kind of information that I had hoped to have on our wine tasting, especially since we did require a reservation. Our server was trying to get our attention so she could do the final pour and she seemed rather put out that we were listening to someone who actually had something to say. We did buy a bottle of gewürztraminer since it is one of the few gewürztraminers that my husband enjoys. We were in and out and the other table that was there before us were still enjoying their wine tasting experience. We have gone for wine tastings at Wild Goose many times in the past and have never had the experience that we had this time. We did not feel at all welcome and felt like we were treated as if we had some incurable disease. If an employee is uncomfortable with doing wine tastings (understandable) because of corona virus they should be assigned another job until there is a cure for covid.
