On Wednesday evening, I was doing errands around the city and catching moments of my favourite evening radio program on CBC, "As it Happens". I jumped back in the car and was half listening to the radio and half thinking about what I needed at the grocery store when suddenly something caught me attention. The interview was all about The Ogopogo! It seems a Kelowna resident has announced that he recently saw Ogopogo while kayaking and in fact, has his tail!! The report said the tail was 1.2 metres long and it now resides in this man's freezer! CBC was interviewing a cryptozoologist who specializes in Ogopogo sightings and research. The tail is now off for DNA testing to discover if it is fact real. I just wonder how this kayaker pulled a 1.2 metre tail back to his home. Intriguing. I think that I will stick with the Prospect Pinot Grigio wine that celebrates the mystery of the Ogopogo and leave the study of the Ogopogo to the 'cryptozoologists!' Oh, how much I love the summer Ogopogo sightings - this is the third this year. However, it definitely makes me wonder if Ogopogo is swimming the depths of Lake Okanagan.
The Ganton and Larsen Prospect Winery is a tribute to the Okanagan Valley’s rich and colourful history, geography and incredible wines.
The wines pay homage to the Ganton and Larsen families; original and longstanding land-owning partners of the winery. The grapes are sourced from vineyards all across the Okanagan Valley, allowing for diversity, consistency and distinctiveness. Each varietal features a gem; a historical place, figure, animal or item from the Okanagan Valley, commemorated by original artwork from local Okanagan artists.

Residents of Vernon, British Columbia called the creature Ogopogo in honor of a 1920s song by the same name.

I like the train of thought in your post but I tend to think you would do well to back up your thought process with a very small amount more solid data.
