Wonders of Wine, the culinary segment, tells the story of wine; places Canadian and BC wines in a world context; visits a vineyard in the Okanagan; explains the connection between visual art and wine; and introduces the new-found virtual wine tasting. Wine writer, educator, presenter, and total wine expert, UBC Alumna DJ Kearny provides the backbone to this episode. A highlight -- she divulges her three favorite wines (of the day). UBC Zoology professor Chris Harley joins Kearney. He describes what it’s like to attend a virtual wine tasting –having hosted neighbors in his garden for UBC Alumni’s first event.
