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

Expansion: There are now over 175 grape wineries in BC and several licenses pending, up from just 13 in 1984.

Terroir: The sandy soil of the Black Sage Bench near Oliver reaches 300 feet deep in places.

Viticulture: Grapes for Icewine are harvested at -8° Celsius or lower, and often by moonlight.

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.*
