Rollingdale Winery

Nestled in beautiful West Kelowna, Rollingdale is a family-owned farmgate winery that incorporates a rich history, nature, and great wine. Fruit farming runs deep in this piece of land; at first, it was home to orchids of apples, peaches, and cherries. Planting the first vines, 1999 breathed life back into the land that had laid fallow, unplanted, for long years. The first wines came out in 2004, and since then, Rollingdale has grown into one of the celebrated wineries in organic practice and sustainability approach. Rich in history and framed with breathtaking surroundings, from an easy stroll through the vineyard to sipping their finest wine, Rollingdale offers the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable experience.

What really helps, however, to set the Rollingdale apart is also the fact that Rollingdale does farm its winery in an organic way. When this home vineyard first obtained its Organically Certified grade in 2007, it proved that the belief in sustainable viticulture practices helps not spoil the earth but grow great grapes in the chemical-free and pesticide-free RQ vineyard. Over time, the vineyards have grown and are now home to a host of varietals including Marechal Foch, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Merlot, and Chardonnay. Each bottle from Rollingdale speaks to the art of the winemaker and the deep respect the winery has for the land. Be it crisp Pinot Gris or silky-smooth Merlot, you’re in for a wine that feels just as good as it tastes.

A visit to Rollingdale Winery would be more or less like stopping at an oasis in tranquility, whereby one feels most naturally the attachment of nature. The farm-gate tasting room is simple and intimate, offering a tasting of their organics while recounting the history of the winery and its sustainability practices. The friendly staff always seems to be in readiness to offer any amount of assistance, making every visit unique. Cheers over a glass overlooking the pretty landscape of West Kelowna, explore this vineyard, or shoot the breeze with the family running Rollingdale Winery for some seriously deliciously conscious wine. Cheers, finally, to wine-good for the soul and planet!
