Winter in Wine Country Icewine Experience
Experience winter in wine country with a guided icewine tour and tasting!
Experience winter in wine country with guided Icewine tours and tastings daily from now until the end of March! Every January, Grizzli Winery focuses on celebrating all things Icewine! The Okanagan Valley is one of a handful of regions in the world that can craft an authentic Icewine, and this West Kelowna winery excels in creating awardwinning VQA icewines right here in the Okanagan.
Unrelenting, freezing and sharp are just a few words Canadians use to describe our winter weather. Luckily, turning the months that could be miserable and dreary to joyous and fun-filled has become our specialty. Now, Canadian winters are known to bring snowshoeing, fireplace snuggling, and winter in wine country with Icewine and frosted vineyard views.
Thanks to our below-freezing temperatures, Canadians get the annual chance to craft a drink so precise that the slightest change in temperature can ruin all efforts; so rewarding that even the harshest crafting conditions are worthwhile; and so deliciously sweet that you’ll have no choice but to come back for more. This is Icewine, and nothing will beat experiencing the wonders of Icewine firsthand!
Experience winter in wine country with a guided Icewine tour and tasting! If you’ve ever wondered how Icewine is made, what the frosted vines look like in the winter time or what to pair Icewine with, then this experience is for you!
This 30-minute tour gives you behind-the-scenes access where you can view Grizzli Winery’s Icewinemaking process up close on a guided Icewine tour. Every bottle of award-winning Icewine begins with local Okanagan-grown grapes that are hand-picked in the dead of winter while still frozen on the vine. They are then pressed, bottled and labelled on site in West Kelowna at their estate winery! Your tour will finish in their 20,000 sq. ft. tasting room and art gallery with a guided tasting flight of two table wines and two of their award-winning icewines.
After your tour, spend some time in their fireside wine lounge and internationally renowned Grizzli Art Gallery, where you can peruse local works by Okanagan artists while enjoying a glass of wine.
