This week on The Good Life we talk with Andre Durbach, owner of La Buca, L’Altro Buca and Pied a Terre.  Wine this week is a fruit forward Gamay from Oak Bay Vineyards (St. Hubertus), and we chat about events in and around town.  Definitely plan to check out the upcoming Okanagan Fall Wine Festival.
