Across the Vancouver Convention Centre sits a circular building with lots of glass panels and a big "ARC" sign. I have always wondered what it is.

I present to you a simple but sophisticated seeming (pretentious even) recipe I thought up on the fly - because it is so easy - The Sous Vide Salmon on Cauliflower Purée with Coconut Herb Fried Rice and of course, a fine wine pairing.

With a small and simple exterior inside a commercial complex, one would have to be in the know to enter its door.

The kind of wine that perfectly fits Aristotle’s saying: “The more you know, the more you know you don’t know”

So deep and dense yet dances on your palate with rainbows and sparkles.

A very well made wine presenting to you in a form of a Sleeping Beauty. Wake her up gently!

Reminiscent of Mosel Riesling with its signature citrus, honey, slate, and off-dry characteristics, but more of soap-stone, graphite, pear, and blossoming white flower.
