We’re incredibly proud to share that Wine Plus+ founder and educator — and owner of Little Farm Winery — won the 2026 Wines of BC Industry Recognition Award for Leadership Excellence.
Rhys is someone truly special to Vinica Education Society. He has taught Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET) Levels 2 and 3, to every one of our 60 Equity in Wine Leadership program participants. His passion, dedication, and commitment to elevating wine education and the BC wine community make this recognition so well deserved.
Congratulations as well to the other nominees for the Leadership Excellence Award, Charlie (Corcelettes) and Heather (Sandhill Wines), along with all those nominated for Master Marketer and Ultimate BC Ambassador.
