“Simply the best! Can’t find better wine on the bench!“
“Shantelle was so amazing!! We loved being here. :) She took the time to walk us through the nuances of white wines, from varietals to tasting techniques, and we learned so much while sipping. The passion and care she brought to the experience made it feel personal and enriching. A must-visit for anyone curious about white wines!“
“Every single wine is amazing ! Their service is amazing. 10000/10 would recommend. Every year they produce better wine. Thank you Black Widow Winery“
“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Red Rooster Winery, and I can't recommend this experience highly enough, especially thanks to Landon, who made the day unforgettable.
From the moment we arrived, Landon’s warm and welcoming personality set the tone for an extraordinary visit. He greeted us with genuine enthusiasm and offered a wealth of knowledge about the winery, its history, and, of course, the wines. His passion for wine and the winery’s craft was immediately evident, and it made the entire tour feel like an educational adventure rather than just a tasting.
Landon expertly guided us through the tasting process, offering detailed descriptions of each wine and sharing interesting stories behind the blends. His ability to explain the nuances of each varietal, without being overly technical, made the experience approachable for both novice wine drinkers and seasoned enthusiasts. He even went above and beyond by recommending food pairings that perfectly complemented each wine, which elevated the entire tasting.
One of the highlights of the day was Landon’s insight into the vineyard’s sustainable practices. It was clear that Red Rooster is committed to producing quality wines while respecting the land, and Landon’s passion for the environment made the experience all the more special.
Whether you’re visiting for the wine, the stunning views, or simply to learn more about the winemaking process, Landon will make your time at Red Rooster Winery one to remember. His personable approach and vast knowledge truly set the experience apart. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!“
“I had visited Township 7 Vineyards & Winery early in their start-up (2004-5) and was impressed then. I have stopped in from year to year and sampled their quality lineup and was never disappointed. In my recent September 2024 visit - I was very impressed by their vineyards bounce back from the extreme cold in January 2024. I was perhaps even more impressed by their current wines - shown and described very capably by Kathy/Cathy in the tasting area. No hard sell from Kathy (still, I did buy the NBO), but professional background info on harvest conditions, wine-making and very friendly clues on the aromas that contribute to each of the wines' gestalt (haven't used that word for a long while ;). On a final note - thank you Kathy for a very worthwhile visit in Naramata last Monday. I do hope to make it over to the Langley winery with some of my wine appreciation class soon and taste/buy some more wines. Cheers, David“
“Great ciders Good service Great view“
“Perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine with some personality! Kerry was friendly, funny, and knowledgeable. We visited mid-march but I can’t wait to return this summer. I’m a big fan of enjoying a beverage in a low-key and scenic environment. Next time we will buy a bottle and bring some snacks to enjoy at the picnic tables!“
“ROCHE wines’s story weaves love, authentic French wine making tradition and an adventurous move to the Okanagan. Dylan Roche (Burgundy, Chablis, New Zealand, Margaux) an avid cyclist wished to pursue becoming a cycle mechanic and tour guide in the idyllic countryside of Burgundy in 2000. Serendipitously, the alluring life of winemaking converted him to officially train in Beaune (2003). Pénélope Furt-Roche (6th generation Bordeaux winemaker of Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion, Spain, New Zealand, Australia,Tasmania) grew up at the esteemed family estate in Bordeaux and at a young age learned the exquisite French tradition of winemaking with her Father Didier. The two merged paths in New Zealand whilst discovering Hawkes Bay during harvest and fell in love (original Hallmark story). They chased each back to France, started a life and both continued their wine journey in Bordeaux. In 2010, the family decided to sell the estate and with a leap of faith the vignerons couple wanted to pursue a dream of their own… Roche Wines! New transplanted they found their desired location in 2011 and commenced various projects to assist them to their final goal in 2017. Being organic, with hands-on farming, focused on sustainable practices and paired with unique Okanagan terroir Roche Wines has quickly excelled. Within their 5 years, Dylan and Pénélope have received BC Lieutenant Governor Awards, Highlighted in Decanter Magazine, high accolades from Jancis Robinson MW/London and wines are currently in most of BC’s TOP restaurants. Equally impressive is family friend and Award Winning Veteran winemaker Dwight Sick (Stag’s Hollow, Moraine Estate Winery, Chain Reaction, Seven Stones) whom has a stunning collaboration with Roche- Amulet Series. His glimpse of the Rhône features highly acclaimed and sought after Viognier/Marsanne, Grenache/Syrah blends. Together, this quaint and unsuspecting winery is a truly authentic slice of the BEST of France (Burgundy, Bordeaux, Alsace, Rhone) in our beloved wine country! 🏆❤️🍷🥂🍇🇫🇷“
“Beautiful view. Very nice wine. The food was excellent and very fairly priced for the quality and portion sizes. We will definitely be back!“
“Fabulous wines, fabulous tasting room.“
“A group of us came in to do a tasting and were greeted beautifully. Had our tasting with Trish and felt so at home. We bought the delicious Merlot to pair with the homemade lasagna for the evening. The jokes, the laughs and the wine!! Trish is fabulous and will definitely be back.“
“We went for a VIP tasting and the experience was 10/10. It was our favorite tasting in the entire Okanagan area.
We were a group of 6 and had Jerry leading the tasting. He was insightful and we learned a lot. We did not receive this level of attention at any other winery, even super expensive ones. The wines surprised us as well - The Pinot and Syrah were standouts. The experience also incited us to buy a lot of wine so it’s such a win-win.
I would recommend this to anyone.“
“Great location for live music! Very welcoming and laid back atmosphere“
“Amazing site and view, could only recommend. Nothing negative from this experience.“
“Just visited Three Sisters Winery with my husband, our two kids, and our dog — and we had the best time! On this very hot day, the kids had plenty of shaded space to play and a whole selection of games to keep them entertained — giant Jenga, Four in a Row, chalk drawing, coloring books, and even Yahtzee. Everything was so thoughtfully set up for families. Our dog was treated to a refreshing bowl of cold water, the kids enjoyed fresh, delicious slushies and pops, and we got to relax with some wonderful wine. It’s one of the rare places where you can spend the afternoon tasting wines while your kids (and pup!) are happy and comfortable. Highly recommend!“
“What an unforgettable experience! We reserved a table for a tasting, and our host Larry was absolutely fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and made us feel like VIPs from the moment we arrived. And the wine… wow! Every bottle we tried was exceptional. Let’s just say, it was a challenge finding enough room in the truck for all the wine we brought home!“
“Beautiful view, great food & wines.“
“Cathy was exceptional and gave great knowledge of the wines ! We have tried a few places and we are from Ontario but this place was by far my favourite wines !“
“Excellent stop on a winery tour! It's on the smaller side with an excellent view and delicious Italian sandwich truck. The sandwiches are made to order and incredibly tasty. Their wines are also incredibly tasty and seemingly unpretentious, although they're very well done and stand up to the competition. Make sure to have enough time to enjoy a sandwich (or bring your own picnic) with that classic lake view.“
“An absolute gem in Penticton!
We had such a great experience at La Frenz Winery. The wine tasting was absolutely fantastic. Every pour was thoughtfully explained and full of character. The service stood out just as much as the wine: warm, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish.
What really impressed us was how kid-friendly they were. It’s not always easy to find places that balance a great adult tasting experience with genuine hospitality toward families, but La Frenz nailed it.
Beautiful views, good wine, and kind people. Can't wait to return.
Highly recommend!“
“We went to Laughingstock for a wine tasting today. Our server, Vera, was lovely but so busy we didn't have a great experience. Apparently reservations are recommended. We walked in and were seated. Vera brought us our samples and then had to run to another table. We waited a long time for our next sample of mediocre wine. I'd rather they told us they were too busy to properly accommodate us. We could have spent out time at another winery that could give us their time and attention.“
“We’re so happy that we stopped here today!!! Such good wines and cheese and @Landon Ketterer was such a delight to interact with too: knowledgeable, friendly, personable!!! To anyone passing by, please do yourself a favour and stop at the Upper bench, you won’t regret it!!!“
“Stopped in here during a little winery crawl and the staff were so friendly and knowledgeable, it made the experience even better. The atmosphere was very nice and the tastings were $6 for 5 wines and they void that if you purchase a bottle, which of course we did! Would recommend.“
