Patio season is in full swing, and here at Basalt, we couldn’t be happier! A gorgeous summer day in Whistler calls for something vibrant and fresh. Our Village Stroll patio faces all the action, and is where many of our guests enjoy our selection of rosé wine.

This wine by 8th Generation from Summerland, B.C., is made in the “Frizzante” style, where CO2 from the fermentation is stored and then injected back into the winemaking process to create soft bubbles that glisten with each sip. Pinot Noir introduces flavours of wild strawberries, and Pinot Gris arrives to transform the wine with a cream-soda style of finish. The refreshing acidity makes this a natural food pairing option for all times of the day, especially with our pan-seared barramundi, featuring a pickled gem tomato caper relish, warm red quinoa, and roasted carrot salad.

It’s also available in a 375 ml bottle, for when you’ve got just a little bit of time before heading to the lake, or golf course, for that extra “confidence”!
