Wineries near Tappen

“Sunnybrae is my favorite winery in the Shuswap and Okanagon areas. The view of Shuswap lake is stunning, the Hamilton family hospitable and the customer service just right. Enjoy a few hours on the balcony sampling their red or white and take a sobering stroll through their impressive winery.“

“Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Beautiful area, Awesome winery!!😁😁“

“We have the absolute pleasure to truly enjoy a visit to Marionette Winery and is an absolute must. Nestled on the beautiful Broadview Bench overlooking Salmon Arm, this winery perfectly blends exceptional wines, stunning scenery, and warm hospitality into an unforgettable experience. The vineyard’s unique terroir and cool-climate growing conditions are reflected in every glass, creating wines that are both elegant and distinctly local.

The facilities are simply outstanding. From the beautifully maintained vineyard and tasting room to the inviting outdoor spaces, every detail has been thoughtfully designed to create a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re enjoying a tasting, relaxing with friends, or attending one of their community events, Marionette offers an experience that feels both sophisticated and comfortably authentic.

The wine selection is exceptional, showcasing a wonderful range of cool-climate varietals including Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer, Grüner Veltliner, Zweigelt, and more. Each wine demonstrates the craftsmanship and passion that Marionette Winery has become known for, offering something to delight every palate.

And then there’s the newest star of the lineup: the Velvet Revel Beaujolais. This remarkable addition is everything a great Beaujolais should be—vibrant, smooth, fruit-forward, and incredibly approachable while still offering depth and character. It is the kind of wine that invites conversation, laughter, and a second glass. Velvet Revel perfectly captures the spirit of Marionette Winery: innovative, expressive, and crafted with care. It’s quickly becoming a standout favorite and is reason enough on its own to plan a visit.

In my personal experience Marionette Winery continues to raise the bar for wine experiences in the Shuswap. Five stars without hesitation—an exceptional destination that showcases the very best of Salmon Arm’s growing wine culture. 🍷⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“
