Meet the sisters blending B.C. wines with Punjabi culture

In Oliver, B.C., also known as “Canada’s Wine Capital,” two sisters are making their mark on the wine industry, and honouring their Punjabi culture in the process. Using the flavours, language, and warmth of their family’s homeland, Neelam and Manpreet Dhaliwal are challenging winemaking conventions, and writing “a love letter to womanhood”, one bottle at a time.
