All right, so I'm far from an expert in wine but you know what we're in Kelowna.
We're hitting up a few of the wineries, the lesser known wineries.
So we're skipping out Quail's Gate
Mission Hill stuff like that
But we're gonna try and hit the medium and small wineries and we're gonna try and find the best one. Let's go and do this
So this is my top 5 wineries in and around the city of Kelowna. Everything's within 15 20 minutes from downtown Kelowna
I tried to skip all the big wineries and you know what this would be completely different any year from now
But hopefully it gives you some ideas of where to go when you're in Kelowna, BC.
First on my list is Arrowleaf cellars just
north of Kelowna in Lake Country, BC
I thought I'd start this list off with a bang and this winery has one of the most beautiful views I've ever seen.
The patio and picnic area overlooking Okanagan Lake is incredible and
Easily makes this best tasting room on this list. Now the wine is just as good. Maybe it's because it's summertime
But Kelowna wineries really knock it out of the park with their whites and even bubblies.
My favorite here might have actually even been the Wildbloom sparkling.
Very dry and a very similar feel to a Prosecco
It just had a really nice kick to it. A little pricey
at 30 dollars after taxes and all the wines start between 20 plus
But you'll definitely find something you like here.
Alright, so we are at Mt Boucherie. We kind of drove right by it.
It's a little bit of a cheat on this one because it's a estate winery
But you know what? They have some really good Reds and the bubbles were really nice
We got this the salad dressing amazing. So yeah, good stop
Now Mt Boucherie is located in West Kelowna.
We were specifically looking for red wines and we had a good feeling this would be the place.
They didn't disappoint but you do pay a premium. I think their premium red sell for over
$50, which are good
But there are a lot of good wines in that price range. So we settled for something a little less expensive
They did have a really nice sparkling with a quite refreshing feel to it
Next is the Hatch Winery
All right, let's check out The Hatch.
It's also located in West Kelowna and this place had some of the most intriguing red wines.
They have an interesting way of sourcing their grapes so they showcase a lot of different styles
But it also means they can taste different. So it might not be for everyone.
You can really feel this is a small-time vineyard.
Which was exactly what we were looking for the only downside here for us was the wine was a little pricey.
Most wines here start at $30 and go higher up from there.
Next The Vibrant Wine in Kelowna, BC. I'm sure you've heard of this place. This is a completely 3D wine experience.
Everything in the tasty room including the bottles artwork and merchandise is in
3D. The entire vibe of this place is very cool and it's a nice spot to check out if you've never been.
Most of the wine here started around
$25 and up so you do pay a premium. I personally found the Rose wine here to be my favorite.
It had nice fruits and a strawberry flavor. Definitely a place I would recommend checking out at least once.
Last on my list is intrigue wines north of Kelowna in Lake Country, BC
This place has some fantastic white wines. I honestly felt they all tasted very similar but it's not
Necessarily a bad thing. They all had a very nice peachy flavor to them that really complimented the Okanagan and Kelowna.
Or maybe I'm just a big fan of peaches.
There wasn't much of an outdoor area here but these were the best price to value we found for wines in the area.
Most of the bottles here started around $15
Alright, so that was a quick video. I know I missed some wineries in Kelowna
So if I did or if there's anything you recommend leave it in the comment section below.
Thanks for watching and until later. I'll see you later.
