Vintages New Release Collection – August 2, 2025

Boasting nearly 300 wineries, British Columbia is where mountainsides, oceans, lakes, and the only classified desert in Canada combine to create diverse climates in nine designated viticultural areas. The heart of BC’s wine scene is the Okanagan Valley : a lakeside region featuring the Osoyoos Desert and more net sunlight hours than Napa Valley. The Okanagan’s first winery opened in 1932, and over 200 wineries now thrive there. The region’s key grape varieties include Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
