We are excited to announce that our 2016 Archive Pinot Noir won the top of its category at the 5th Annual Judgment of BC.

Hosted by the BC Wine Institute and curated by Vancouver-based wine expert DJ Kearney, the 2019 competition pitted 24 BC wines against 16 acknowledged global benchmarks in four categories: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Riesling. The wines were blind tasted by 32 top wine professionals including world-renowned wine critic Steven Spurrier of the UK. British Columbian wineries took the top spots in three out of the four varieties, and we are honoured to be one of them!

"Arrowleaf Cellars, a specialist in translating every drop of fruit and terroir in their grapes into the bottle, beat out the pinot noir field with its Archive Pinot Noir 2016." Read Anthony Gismondi's full article on the Judgment of BC.
