They were kind enough to open up their new sparkling bottle. - 2022 Flirty 3 - equal blends of gewurtz, pinot gris and riesling. Bought a bottle ($20.99). - 2021 La gauche - smoky but smooth. This was our favourite of the three reds we tried. - 2021 Cabernet franc - 2020 La droite - 2018 Late harvest viognier - not too sweet, good mouth feel. - Blanc de blanc - first time they've made a sparkling pinot blanc. Excellent bubbly. We bought a bottle ($37.99). Too bad they didn't have their blanc de merlot bottled yet.

Been back to Rollingdale Winery three years in a row…read more Tastings are $10.00/person for 5 pours but the fee is no longer waived with a bottle purchase. We shared a tasting. Our pourer (Chantal) was very friendly and informative. - 2022 Akina rosé - marechal foch grapes. Rosé was supposed to be dry, didn't taste so. - 2021 Riesling - smooth, velvety texture on the mouth. Not too sweet. Bought a bottle ($28.61) for home. - 2022 The flirty 3 - blend of three whites. Sweetest of the whites we tried. - 2018 Merlot - light on tannins, a touch smoky. - 2020 Cabernet franc - bolder flavour, but more tannins. Still one of my favourite organic wineries.

The food was also, complex, delicate, and thoughtful, accompanied by flexible wine pairings, which gave us an opportunity to test five of their wines, all terrific. The server here was also terrific, and saved us a trip to the tasting room by letting us sign up for the wine club right there. It's very flexible, just asking for three purchases a year, so we made the first right then, and I selected wines for a case that she even carried to our car.

THE BLACK AND WHITE: This was our second to last winery before we called it quits for the night. We came in wanting to try some more okanagan pinot noirs and we got them! They gave us a sparkling pet nat to try as we were walking in which was nice. The pinot noirs here in the classic tasting were alright. One was very light and the other was heavy and leathery. For bonus pours, we tried their late harvest riesling which had that petrol taste profile that I weirdly like. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Great staff and service, however the wines were alright. A tasting was $10 for four pours. Very affordable and would recommend to try at least once.

We dropped in on a Friday evening with 6:30pm reservations. There's a heritage room and a couple small tables outside to do tastings. We did ours in the latter. Service was incredibly friendly and sweet. Tasting fee varies ($10.00 to $20.00) based on four flight options but each includes three pours. We opted for the classic ($10.00). It's also worth mentioning that only $5.00 of the fee goes toward a bottle purchase. - 2017 Organic old vines pinot - a blend that was light in flavour. - 2016 Old vines riesling - 2018 Organic pinot noir - smokey and medium tannin. - 2020 Organic ruby pet nat - we were given a bonus sample. This was actually one of their natural wines we were hoping to try. Turned out to be our favourite. A touch fizzy and notes of blueberry. We debated getting a bottle ($30.00). Decent wines at SV but we enjoyed the organic wines more out in West Kelowna.

We finished the meal with a delightful chocolate cake, more like a torte, with cherries and Chantilly cream. All the food was delightful but priced on the high side for the quantity provided. However, overall a lovely experience.

All their prices ($19.50 to $33.50) include taxes and deposit. - 2022 Bright idea - bubbly on the drier side - 2022 Siegerrebe - rare to find as a single varietal. Good mouth feel with notes of tangerine. We bought a bottle ($19.50) - 2021 Chardonnay - not your typical chardonnay. Light with good minerality - 2022 Pinot noir - a touch acidic with cherry - 2021 The pull - smooth, not too tannic - 2021 Malbec ($32.00) - bought a bottle as don't see malbecs often.

Parking is weird as you have to park next to the building but there's no dedicated parking spaces. THE BLACK AND WHITE: Driving up, it was weird not having a place to park the car, so we just parked at the side of the building. The dogs are nice and playful around the property. Heading into the winery, we had these cute lil wine glasses and the tastings were 5 pours. There were a few grapes that I didn't recognize like the Siegerrebe, but was actually pretty decent. The pinot noir and bubbly was great. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall the damage done for 2 tastings was $20 CAD. Lots of experimentation here and I'm onboard for it.

The winery features unique 3D artwork, with designs printed directly onto the wine bottles, making them feel extra special. There's also an art gallery on-site that shares the story behind each piece, explaining how the art is created. Some pieces are inspired by childhood memories, while others explore fantastical themes, creating a meaningful connection for visitors. The server is very nice and welcoming. They also welcome you even you are just visiting and want to enjoy the 3D art without getting any wine. As a fun bonus, you'll be given 3D glasses to fully experience the immersive part of the artwork. It's a great combination of wine and art!

The staff provided us with 3D glasses so we could enjoy the paintings with a 3D effect. I was already excited as I walked around the tasting room and decided to try a wine tasting. We tried the Rosé, Woops 2022, Gewurztraminer, Wolf Song, and Phoenix. Our most favorite was Woops 2022, then, Phoenix which we purchased. The Woops wine label is designed upside down, which is really fun, and it tastes great too. Phoenix was full-bodied and tasted really good. I also liked the Gewurztraminer for its well-balanced fruit flavors and sweetness, and the Wolf Song for its buttery taste. We also purchased their original wine glass. This winery is really fun, and I will definitely visit again.

THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I came here on a Sunday afternoon driving from Calgary and the views were amazing. Walking into the tasting room, the area had so much natural light shining in with beautiful sights of the lake and vines. We didn't have a reservation but the server was nice enough to give us a complimentary tasting of three wines. They were really good! We ended up purchasing a bottle of sparkling rose! THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall tastings will set you back around $30 CAD and the bottle of sparkling rose we got was around $40 CAD. Will definitely be back at this winery when we're in Kelowna.

Thursday sunset hour tastings & nibbles…read more We made a reservation for the inaugural sunset wine tasting experience and enjoyed two, 2oz pours of wine with a small plate of nibbles overlooking the lake. The nibbles were delicious, but didn't necessarily pair with the wines offered, which was my only critique of the experience. The views are magical and we ended up purchasing a bottle of their Cabernet franc, which is a silver medalist and has a gorgeous, velvet texture. Would recommend for anything looking for a fun, casual twist to your Thursday evenings!

I would definitely recommend Merlin and Bare tours to others!

Unfortunately, we couldn't visit the kitchen due to the slow season, but the pyramid and gift store are worth checking out. The winery itself is on the older side, and they've kept much of the decor vintage, adding to its charm. The champagne glasses are perfect for photos -- definitely Instagram-worthy! As for the pyramid, it's a bit on the sketchy side. It's a self-guided tour, but the lights are off, and the only sound is calming meditation music playing through the speakers. It creates a mysterious vibe, though I'm not entirely sure why it feels so... intriguing. Definitely a unique experience, with a mix of history, ambiance, and a little mystery.
