From the rugged beauty of the Similkameen to the golden shores of Osoyoos, our latest video AdVINEture through the Okanagan Valley reminded us why BC wine is a world-class contender. 🍇✨
📍 Similkameen → Summerland → Naramata → Oliver → Osoyoos
In spite of recent challenging vintages, what we found was a region that’s not just surviving—it’s thriving. Quality is soaring, individuality is shining, and the stories behind the wines are more compelling than ever.

There’s something inherently festive about bubbles.
A promising future in BC.
Whether you’re popping a cork to toast a milestone, pouring a glass at brunch, or simply pairing effervescence with a Tuesday evening, sparkling wine adds a touch of joy to any occasion.
And what better time to raise a glass than on #SparklingWineWeek especially when it coincides with Canada Day? We felt the latter was a great excuse to celebrate with some homegrown bubbles from British Columbia’s sparkling wine scene.
Does BC do Sparkling well? The answer, in short, is yes.
We recently spent time in the Okanagan and were lucky enough to taste a few unreleased bottlings that left us buzzing with excitement. BC’s sparkling wine future is not just promising, it’s already happening.
BC’s wine industry is going through a tremendous growth spurt and as of March 2023, there are now 341 licensed wineries in the province. With all that competition and the quality level being pushed to new heights, it takes a lot to decide to start a new winery in BC. Our latest article for the Daily Hive takes a look at 4 of BC’s newest wineries: Garnet Valley Ranch, Solvero Wines, Red Barn & Frind Estate Winery.

Climate change continues to be a growing concern worldwide and conscious consumerism has forced business industries to shift their view on sustainability from an optional nice to have to a minimum requirement. The wine industry is no different and one of the wineries helping lead the movement in BC is Summerland’s Okanagan Crush Pad (OCP). For more than a decade, sustainability, both in the vineyards and in the winery, has been at the heart of what they do. Their newest project, Garnet Valley Ranch not only embodies this spirit in the winery, but also demonstrates it beautifully through a truly memorable personal experience at the property itself.
