Mudbay Wines is a B.C. VQA Wine Store
SELECTION, SERVICE & PRICING
What is B.C. VQA? PUt very simply, the BC VQA designation on wines of British Columbia is a guarantee that you're purchasing and enjoying 100% BC Wine.
Introduced in 1990, the BC VQA is an "Appellation of Origin" system that guarantees authenticity of origin and stipulates minimum quality standards for Canadian wines. BC VQA defines and mandates standards for wine production and certification.
With the BC VQA system, Canada has joined other leading wine-producing countries in developing a body of regulations and standards for its wines. Participation in the BC VQA program is voluntary and now regulated by the BC Wine Authority (BCWA.) The BCWA brings all wineries under a single set of regulations and a single body charged with enforcing those regulations. In 1990 BC VQA wine sales in BC totaled 600,000 litres. In 2008 the totaled approximately 6.6 million litres!
So, a BC VQA Wine store sells 100% B.C. Wine!
