GIVEAWAY with TORI WESSZER, FRAICHE LIVING

We’re saying thank you and celebrating the 30th anniversary of our BC VQA Wines together with Tori Wesszer at Fraiche Living with a new giveaway valued at $700! Choosing local has never been more important as BC wineries continue to adapt to the new rules of engagement and a different 2020 tourism season. 

Congratulations to Vicki Maras Kasapi who’s won a gift certificate for  30  bottles of BC VQA Wine (symbolizing 30 years) from a BC Save-On-Foods BC VQA Wine Store at a total value of $700!

“It has been nothing short of incredible to witness firsthand the tremendous outpour of love and support that has flowed not only through our small community, but within our province, country, and ultimately the world in response to the COVID-19 outbreak. I’ve never been so proud of the way we have stood together through such a difficult time. Each and every day I’m blown away by creative ways others are donating, supporting, and helping out in this time of need. The generosity does not go unnoticed. I’m always looking for ways myself and my team can help out and today I’m happy to share that Tori, from Fraiche Living, and I, have teamed up with the BC Wine Institute and together we are donating $3000 to the Food Bank as a way to not only show our support for our local small businesses but to help support our community. We are all in this together.“

– JILLIAN HARRIS –

” It has warmed my heart to see how our community (and others around the world) is pulling together to support each other. The local wine industry here in BC is near and dear to my heart; I have had the pleasure of watching it grow into a beautiful world-class wine producing region thanks to the small family run wineries that have worked so very hard to make it all happen.  I’m so proud to call this place my home!  Many of the wineries and restaurants are still selling online and they truly need our support right now: look for BC VQA on the label of the wine you’re purchasing for assurance that it is 100% BC grown and produced.  Jillian Harris and I are teaming up to support  local wines of BC, and together with the BC Wine Institute, are donating $3000 to the Food Bank as another way of giving back to our community!  Let’s raise a glass (hopefully together for a REAL cheers, soon!) and join me in supporting our local BC wines!“
