Black Hills Estate Winery

About Winery and Wines

The terroir on which our vineyards sit has become recognized as some of the most exceptional in the country. Located on the Black Sage Bench, our vineyards have a microclimate that puts it among the hottest, driest and sunniest sites in Canada. The southwest facing aspect and moderate slope combined with our deep desert sand yields intensely flavourful and complex grapes. We feel honoured to be the stewards of this incredible piece of agricultural land and work to harness its potential to create the best possible fruit imaginable. Likewise, we have the highest respect for the legacy of this vineyard and the role that agriculture plays in the environmental cycle. We are committed to sustainable, environmentally-friendly farming and winemaking practices. All of our vines are hand-picked, hand-pruned and maintained by vineyard workers manually. We have been awarded Environmental Farm Plan Status by the B.C. Environmental Farm Plan. This plan is administered by the Federal and Provincial Departments of Agriculture as well as the BC Agriculture Council and the Investment Agriculture Foundation. We are proud to increase our agricultural sustainability and contribute to a cleaner, healthier environment as we continue to operate under the best practices of the Environmental Farm Plan.
