Vinifera: A species of grape–Vitis Vinifera–that produces the classic wine grapes that have spread from the vineyards of Europe.*

Terroir: Borrowed from the French, this term encompasses the entire environment–soil, climate, aspect–that makes a vineyard special.*

Acidity: This natural tartness in grapes and other fruits contributes to vibrant flavours.*

Geology: Mt. Boucherie (near Kelowna), home to a number of wineries, is an extinct volcano.

More awards: Jackson Triggs - Okanagan won the 2006 Rosemount Estate Trophy for Best Shiraz/Syrah of the year at the International Wine and Spirit Competition in London, England. A first for a North American Winery since they began awarding the trophy in 1994!

  Garry Oaks Winery
 

Stately-Rare-Quientessentially West Coast. We take our cue from the Garray oak trees that grace our vineyard. We tend our vineyard by hand and produce naturally small lots of original wines - classically inspired wines with a spirit of adventure.

We have been called meticulous and we freely confess to being so, from planning, planting and tending our vineyard, to coaxing out the unique and distinct qualities of our wines. Come visit our terraced vineyard overlooking the beautiful Burgogne Valley on Saltspring Island, walk our labyrinth and taste our award winning wines.
