Experience the stories imbued in every sip
Many are surprised to learn Cowichan is one of the largest wine regions in BC. The time, energy, and love our proprietors put into growing every grape is evident—finding deep satisfaction in observing new visitors take their very first taste of a Cowichan wine during intimate tours.
Cowichan viticulture
Cowichan is home to one of the largest wine regions in British Columbia and has the longest history of winemaking with grapes on Vancouver Island. Our first commercial winery opening in 1992, but some of our homesteads were experimenting with wine back in the 1800’s. When you dig beneath the vines to the unique terroir and rich history of our land it quickly makes sense. A mix of ancient volcanic activity, salt, and glaciers in the Cowichan region has led to some of the best soil for growing our chosen grape varieties.
