DISCOVER CALIFORNIA WINES

PRE-ORDER ONLINE AUGUST 20 TO 23

A diverse selection of California wines will be coming to BC Liquor Stores shelves. The outstanding collection features Hillside Reds, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Proprietary Reds along with iconic collectibles. A one-of-a-kind Opus One collection of 8 vintages will also be available in multiple formats. Rounding out the list are new wines from Paso Robles, Sonoma and Santa Barbara that establishes California as a beautiful and diverse wine region. The collection will be available at select BC Liquor Store locations in limited quantities. Bottle restrictions may apply.

To keep our customers and our staff safe, we have moved to an online pre-order request system. Customers have the opportunity to request their favourite products from the release in advance of the September 12th release date, mitigating the need for large gatherings and line-ups on release day. Any remaining inventory will be available on September 12th.

 

STEPS TO PARTICIPATE:

  1. Check out the California Wine Release brochure and pick your favourites.

  2. On August 20, visit our website and fill out the form. (Form will be available August 20 to 23 only)

  3. From September 12 to 20, visit your preferred store location to pick up your products.

ONLINE PRE-ORDER PROCESS:

Starting Thursday, August 20, you may place your pre-order requests online. All release products will be on the online order form.

You will have until Sunday, August 23 at 11:59 p.m. to submit your order request. You may select your pick-up location (see participating stores below) and view all the products allocated to that store.

Please note: one order request per person. Once you have submitted an order request, you will not be able to submit another order for another store, nor edit your order.

To give everyone a fair opportunity to purchase these special products, BC Liquor Stores will conduct an electronic draw to determine the sequence in which the orders will be fulfilled. Due to the limited quantities available, some products in your order request might not be fulfilled. You will be notified of the unavailable products within your order only upon pick up. If no products from your order request can be fulfilled, you will be notified via a phone call or email prior to the pick-up dates.

Pick up starts on Saturday, September 12 and ends on Sunday, September 20 at store closing. Ensure you have the following ready:
