This week was the first spring edition of Top Drop Vancouver.
The popular, purposefully-small, independent, annual wine festival has previously taken place in the autumn. Now in its forth vintage, the two-day fete combines the collective brainpower of some of Vancouver’s top palates across a series of tastings, seminars and dinners for both trade and public. Spearheaded by Kurtis Kolt and Jeff Curry, and supported by a cadre of passionate wine-trade volunteers, the event reads like a well-edited wine list: concise, adventuresome, exciting. Top Drop has proven to be the place for smaller-scale, boutique and terroir-focused wines from BC and abroad, with winery representative, and without attitude. Tickets from all events benefit the BC Hospitality Foundation, an important local resource providing financial support to individuals from the hospitality industry facing a major medical crisis.
We took in Wednesday's walk around Trade Tasting, previewing the evening’s public Main Event. These are our Top Drop Ten.
