Hello everyone. My husband and I are just starting to get into the wine scene. We both love to have some on hand and would like to start a collection. We've recently returned from the Okanogan Valley in British Columbia with a number of bottles but we didn't see any of this white merlot I've been reading about here. Can someone tell me what winery makes this? Appreciate your responses, and look forward to learning lots with you.
My current favourites? Whites - Clean, crisp dry riesling; Reds - fruity merlots and pinot noirs. Also a very excited port fan. Not into blushes as much.

Hi Tricky, and welcome to the Wine Board. Glad you enjoyed some of your BC wines. We have only been able to get some the more widely distributed ones (such as Mission Hills) here in New England and in the Maritimes. If you are not into blushes as much, there really is not much point going there. The one White Merlot that has gotten some both good and bad reviews around here is the one from Beringer.
