Kelowna Wine Tasting Experience with Picnic Lunch
Duration
5 to 6 hours
Overview
-
Our Kelowna tour is one of the best ways to experience Okanagan wine country: a facility & vineyard tour, tastings of wines, and a delicious picnic lunch, all wrapped up in a 5-hour tour, visiting 5 of our favourite wineries…all within the Greater Kelowna area!
Kelowna is truly the birthplace of winemaking in BC—the first vineyards in the Province were planted here by Father Charles Pandosy in 1859. This region is known primarily for cool-climate varietals such as Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Riesling, although some wineries are producing red blends made with fruit sourced from vineyards further south. Stunning views of the city, surrounding mountains, gorgeous vineyards and orchards, and our beautiful lake all set a dramatic backdrop for this tour.
The tour also includes a facility tour and tasting. Guests will learn about the winemaking process from grape to glass, beginning in the vineyard, moving into the winemaking facility, and concluding with a tasting of award-winning wines.
