Wine Wednesday Big disappointment. $20 each for nothing. Expected cheese and bread at least for a wine tasting. Instead, a food truck with hot dogs, hamburgers and fries.
Such potential but not a classy situation.
Won’t be back

These vines have tender and young grapes!
My husband and I arrived here on a hot, sunny afternoon, just after lunch. Though the inside was air conditioned and the outside venues were shady and breezy, neither of us wanted to do a regular wine tasting with larger samples and local snacks. They had a smaller tasting with baby sips of four varieties. Just right for us. The last two were especially good so we bought a bottle of each.
The self guided tour outside was wonderful. Colourful displays. Lots of information. I now know, among other things, that hummingbirds, doves and yellow warblers are welcome here but starlings and robins are not.

I thought the winery was very nice and the wines have lots of potential. The only disappointment was the charcuterie style food which was served in plastic manufacturer original packaging as if off a grocery store shelf. It was very strange and took away from the overall experience.

Really lovely winery.

Beautiful winery, wonderful staff, and lovely wines

Young winery but it lots of character and classy presentation. Amazing selection of wines that left me surprised about how a winery in the Island can have such quality and variety, due to the differences in weather and soil compared to the Okanagan. The grounds are also beautiful; you can sit and enjoy your wine or walk around a part of the vineyards.
We did the tasting at 3pm with Kat. She was very knowledge and friendly. Highly recommended even if you’re not a big wine drinker.

Just been to ' Jazz in the vineyard' in 40 Knots Winery. Cozy rustic setting, breeze in between the glass wall, geese marching along the tune of jazz. Gamay red wine has very clean taste. Perfect to wrap up another week..

Sustainable and clean practices here. Beautiful wine blends. Young winery but very sophisticated and classy presentation. Beautiful grounds that you can sit and enjoy, or walk around a short interperative trail. Definitely do the special pairing that is by reservation only at 3pm every day.

Very beautiful, friendly atmosphere. Different sitting areas with lighting, wool blanket to keep you warm on the patios if needed. Staff very knowledgeable regarding their organic wines.

Wonderful time and tasting. Tara is a rock star, friendly cheerful, knowledgeable. Thank you Tara 💚
I love this place and I love that they're doing ciders now as well. The flights are perfect and I really like the multiple areas to chill and enjoy your drink. Normally I enjoy the whites on the island, their reds were also quite delicious.

Great experience. We enjoyed the wines with a picnic basket. Excellent service in a top notch facility.

Best place to get some wine or cider! great owners, awesome staff. There wine and cheese is a must do activity! Local wine and local cheese!

If you like wine, don’t go here. Their wines are terrible. Paid $40 for 2 flights & didn’t even finish any of the wines as they were so bad. Gimmicky & over priced.
And seeing as 40 Knots have flagged this an ‘not legitimate’ as they clearly cannot handle an honest review, I am adding a photo of proof that we went to the winery & didn’t finish our flights as the wine is vile.

This is a quality destination, informative, great service and amazing wines, the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable and we had a great time, would highly recommend.
