Wine Pairings
Spicy orange pork, Pair it with: An Okanagan white.
Winemaker Howard Soon has created a superb chardonnay by fermenting and aging half the wine in a barrel and the rest in stainless steel. The palate is both crisp and fresh — and great with this pork dish. Our pick: 2011 Sandhill Chardonnay, British Columbia, $18.
