West Kelowna Wine Trail Half Day: Bold Reds & Volcanic Terroir
Experience the "Heavy Hitters" of the Okanagan at the foot of an extinct volcano.
Prepare for a tour that balances rugged geology with world-class sophistication. The West Kelowna Wine Trail is home to some of the oldest vines in the valley, planted in the mineral-rich, volcanic soils of the dormant Mount Boucherie. This unique terroir produces the region’s most powerful Syrahs, Merlots, and Cabernet Francs.
On this half-day excursion, we visit four wineries ranging from the unconventional "castle ruins" of Crown & Thieves to the luxurious lake-side vibes of Frind Estate Beach Winery. Whether you're strolling the beach after a tasting or meeting the famous goats at Off the Grid Organic Winery, this route offers the most diverse tasting rooms in the Okanagan. It’s bold, it’s iconic, and it’s quintessentially Westside.
Route Highlights:
The Volcanic Edge: Learn how 60-million-year-old volcanic deposits from Mt. Boucherie create "big" reds and award-winning varietals like Syrah and Pinot Noir.
Diverse Destinations: Experience a mix of high-end luxury estates and quirky, "eccentric" boutiques like The Hatch.
Iconic Landscapes: Navigate windy rural roads and rolling hillsides with the best panoramic views of Okanagan Lake in the valley.
