There's a deer-proof fence leading to the winery, one that detects your presence and opens to…read morewelcome you, and that affirmative reception begins one of the best visits of our wine trip. My girlfriend and I were on vacation through Okanagan wine country. Over six days, we visited sixty wineries. You can follow our various locations with this disclaimer. That's sixty wineries, not an exaggeration. We ended the trip with 120 bottles acquired. This is not to say that there's an alpine coaster or complimentary back rubs or anything. It's just a purified wine-lovers experience. Firstly, there's that gate, one of only two places we've been to boasting one, and yes, that minute detail helps. Cars approach the rustic cottage, fringed by vineyards, gardens, and picnic tables. Being on a hill, the view is incredible. Within, we found a comfortable if cramped wine tasting area with décor following the theme reflective of the roaring twenties / Jazz age, basically enjoying the decadent elements of The Great Gatsby without the annoyance of actually reading that dreadful novel. And it probably has the best-looking bathroom on our trip...yes, I just said that. Trust me; you'll agree with me when you see it. The ultimate point regarding the success of Kraze Legz, more than anything aesthetically about the location, is that the wines are amazing...according to my girlfriend. I admit it's not my favorite, but I also admit being in the extreme minority. My girlfriend and our best friends all adore both Kraze Legz and Skaha wines (by the same winery), so much so that we are on the wine subscription now. The staff is pleasant and I loved the fact you must drive through a housing division to get to it. Yes, if you like drinking wine, Kraze Legz is a destination spot. It's out of the way, but worth the diversion.

This is a fun little winery a short drive off the highway. It's 1920's speakeasy themed with a nice…read morepatio area overlooking their vineyard and the valley. The wines are excellent and each comes with a little 1920's dance history with each sip. You can give the Lindy Hop a try or take the easy route for a Cakewalk. Because it's a smaller vineyard there isn't a vast choice of wines, but what they. Do, they do well. The owners were very friendly and helpful.

A fabulous little winery, specializing in rieslings - local to the Canadian Okanagan (not available…read morein the States). They close for the season when they run out of wine. They have a variety of rieslings made from grapes grown in different conditions, and the results are surprisingly varied and good. A great little winery.

Synchromesh commits many egregious sins, unforgivable ones in our modern viticulture…read more It dares to offer a simple corrugated steel winery with nary a flamboyant art piece or wasteful water feature. It's tasting lounge is minuscule with no ration given to merchandise or paired picnic-fodder. It doesn't offer the particulars all wineries must list. There are no Cabernet Sauvignons, Pinot Noirs, or Syrahs? Even its name is weird--not taken from its address or a simplistic nearby geographical feature. Synchromesh? Am I getting my car serviced? It can't even be bothered to hire staff, forcing patrons to listen to the winemaker himself ramble on about how great his Rieslings are. That's right, Rieslings...white wine. And not only that, but among the ten wines generally offered, six are Rieslings, limiting options to those wishing the standard fair. My God, I love this place. As for those Rieslings, I bought four. I thought the reds were offered because the owners felt they needed to. This is a perfect example of a winery knowing something well and throwing everything behind it in order to perfect that one impeccable variatel. It's an example sadly so few follow, as such dedication usually comes at the expense of selection. I'd rather have that than a traditional winery just offering the staples. Just because there are six varietals of Riesling does not equate them being identical. Each one caters to a distinct palate, but each is strong in their own regard. I didn't buy the same bottle twice. As for the name, love it. Talking with the owner directly as he poured samples, I'd have it no other way. The small tasting room, focused and without distraction. This is a winery that sells what it knows and it knows Riesling. It's not surprising that Synchromesh makes the best. That's my declaration; they do the best Rieslings in the Okanagan. Do I have a sample size, or am I just being glib? From August 2016 to May 2017, my girlfriend and I visited over 100 BC wineries, so take that what you will. Synchromesh is one not to miss, regardless if you prefer whites or reds. The Rieslings will sway your opinion. If you still dislike it after the visit, then there is no hope--you will always see red. By the way, the day we arrived, it was over 34 degrees outside, but inside was an ice box. Thank you.
