About JoiRyde Winery:

It all started with a spin bike. Daphne and Stacy met as passionate spin instructors of a local gym in Penticton, BC. When the pandemic of 2020 hit they found themselves unemployed and looking for a new opportunities. Daphne had an extensive background in the local wine industry, while Stacy had the business savvy and love of BC wine. The two had heard about a new project at District Wine Village, where those who had the drive and passion to make beautiful wine, could create their brand in a small wine village community. Daphne and Stacy clinked their glasses and prepared themselves for the next JoiRyde that life would bring them.

High Five Wine Scoring System offers wine lovers the opportunity to discover and develop their palate while becoming familiar with those trickier aspects of wine. Have you ever had a wine that tasted sharp, for example? That’s acidity! Have you ever had a sip of red wine and suddenly felt your lips sticking to your teeth? That sensation is from the tannins!

You will quickly build awareness of what you like and what you don’t use the tools outlined in this book and with Tonia’s wine coaching style. 

This kind of wine education is innovative, creative, unique and so much fun!
