HOLIDAY OPEN HOUSE, MOSS STREET & ONLINE SHOPPING

We are thrilled to be reopening the wine shop over the next three weekends for our annual Holiday Open House. After a busy harvest filled with many long days in the cellar, we look forward to welcoming you back to the winery as we have some exciting new releases to share with you. Let us host you for a tasting of our latest offerings and help you tick a few local items off of your Christmas shopping list.

12am to 5pm  |  Fri, Sat & Sun  |  December 3-5, 10-12 & 17-19  

That's right, tastings are back! Please come prepared with the necessary proof of vaccination and identification. Simply shopping? No proof of vaccination is required. Please note, we are not taking reservations for tastings this season so it will be first come, first served. 

If a physical visit to our wine shop is not possible, our online store is stocked with all of the same goodies. We have also secured a booth at the Moss St Holiday Market, which is being held on December 11th and 12th from 10am to 4pm at Sir James Douglas School. We would love for you to stop by and say hello! As always, we offer free delivery to the Victoria and Langford area for all online orders. For all other orders, standard shipping rates apply. 

This month, along with our Saison vineyard releases, we are happy to announce the return of our traditional method Sparkling Rosé. Hand-riddled and hand-disgorged, this lively, pink bubbly is made up of Pinot Noir and Gamay Noir farmed by our team on the Saanich Peninsula. With only 45 cases produced, the Sparkling Rosé will be a tasting room and online store exclusive. 

We are very excited to announce that, for the first time, we will be digging into our cellar and re-releasing some of our favourite wines for you to enjoy. We will release two wines every weekend in limited quantities (never more than four cases!). Keep an eye on our Instagram page for updates on what we will be offering each week.

We'd like to say a big thank you to everyone who supported us this year, from joining us at harvest, to visiting us at our tasting room, to purchasing a bottle of our wine. Without you, we would not be able to explore this wonderful region and all that it has to offer.

From all of us at Rathjen Cellars, Happy Holidays!
