My girlfriend and I were on vacation through Okanagan wine country. Over six days, we visited…read moresixty 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. On a rather isolated hill just south of Okanagan Falls sits a family of smaller wineries all worthy of a visit. The first two on this list is Wild Goose and Stags Hollow, which is a fifteen-second walk from each other, literally next door. Thus, a visit to one equates to visiting both. But be aware that these wineries are like Anna Kendrick, petite and an acquired taste. But I adore that actress, and I walked away with several bottles that day. The actual tasting rooms are small, and in total, both visits won't take long, but there is also Liquidity and Noble Ridge nearby, and those wineries are amazing, and it would be crazy to go here without visiting them all, so go do that. About the only thing odd about the location is that because they on a hill, they're basically beside the highway, but you have a winding route to get where you need to go, but it's still worth it.

Parking is available. Some amazing views that make for great photos! I bought 4 bottles for $100. They don't have a wine club, but you can sign up with your email and they contact you when they are ready to ship out wine. They only ship 5 times a year, but you can order whatever you want in your case (mixed). I love their Merlot!!!! Give it shot!

It's totally worth the few wrong turns you are bound to take when you try to locate their winery. It's pretty much at the very end of the Naramata Bench road, then you go down, down, and around in the direction of the lake, then you end up on an even smaller road. Just when you think you're about to drive through a vineyard, Kettle Valley Winery appears. The tasting room is in the garage of the house. They've dressed it up and it's pretty cute. You are usually allowed to taste just two wines, so choose carefully! There's a lot of good stuff from this shop. I'm a big fan of pretty much every red I've tried of theirs. You can easily fill a case. They have a small wine shop, so if you're in a groups of eight or more call ahead and make an appointment.

The Retail Manager was awesome in telling us the family's background in wine making and the focus and direction of the wine maker. This was the first time that I have enjoyed all the wine tasting in one sitting. The wines were balanced and approachable. I usually don't like sparkling whites but Rachel's Curvee 2019 was differently special. In the end, I took home the Signature Chardonnay (a beautiful cloudy unfiltered wine that was creamy yet finished clean) and Amelia Syrah/Vio (named after the family's youngest child). The retail shop is a "shack" and wine tasting experience on picnic tables dotting the property which also offered beautiful views of Okanagan Lake and vineyards. Was told the sheep usually come down to the picnic area to graze on the grass but none today so will have to come back another time.

Highly recommended (so make a tasting appointment!), including wonderful views from the tasting area.

We were very lucky that my parents were club members, we got a free private wine tasting, with a few extras. They just finished this private wine tasting room and we were a few of the first Guinea pigs. Usually tastings are $12 per person and should be booked in advance, but we were lucky and it was not busy when we showed up. Beautiful grounds, wonderful friendly staff and very delicious wines. More on the pricy side, but the quality is right up there to match it. Our favourites were the Isabella frizzante, and the 2018 Merlot. Both bottles are coming home with us. There is also a restaurant that has tapas style bites and pairings. We didn't eat there but it looked amazing and the dining room overlooks the valley covered in grape vines. 10 out of 10, would come back!

They're a certified organic winery that specializes in white wines. Tasting fee is a non-refundable $10.00/person (for 6 pours). They only offer tastings outside where you can sit at one of their many patio tables. Our pourer was very sweet and friendly. - 2021 Muscat ottonel - this was unique. - 2021 Solstice - a blend of four white wine grape. - 2021 Kerner - 2021 Riesling - our favourite from the wines we tasted. The "sweetest" of the bunch. Riesling was well balanced and crisp. - 2021 Rosé - notes of strawberry and cream. They use pinot noir grapes for their rosé. - 2021 Moscato frizzante - the bubbly version of their muscat ottonel. All their white wine offerings are dry and very low in sugar. Check out SummerGate if you're a fan of organic, dry white wines. 3.5 stars.

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.
