Awards: In 1994, Mission Hill Grand Reserve Chardonnay 1992 won the Avery Trophy for “Best Chardonnay Worldwide” at the International Wine and Spirit Competition in London—the first major award win of the new era of BC winemaking.

Geography: The southern Okanagan Valley in the area between Oliver and the border is classified as part of the Sonora Desert, which runs south to the Baja Peninsula in Mexico.

Hybrid: Grape varieties developed, typically by crossing European varieties with native North American varieties. The plant breeder’s objectives include developing varieties that ripen early, resist disease or are winter-hardy.*

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

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

  Krāzē Legz Vineyard and Winery
 

Family owned and operated, Krāzē Legz Winery is a throw back to simpler times when the decade was roaring, the music was jazzed and dancing required Krāzē Legz.

Located in historic Kaleden, our family vineyard is nestled on steep slopes of shale and fossilized sandstone, warmed by the first light of day, and cooled by late evening lake breezes.

When full ripeness is achieved, our grapes are hand harvested, sorted and pressed.
To maintain maximum vineyard expression and purity of fruit our wine is small lot fermented and bottled.

Our passion is reflected in the high quality grapes we produce, the wines we craft and in the multitude of diverse people we call "good" friends.

So swirl the wine in your glass and watch the Krāzē Legz dance. Cheers!
