For the Canada Day long weekend, Mr. and I went to the Okanagan. Last year, we received a certificate for a two-night stay at The Villa at Hester Creek Estate Winery, so we took the opportunity to spoil ourselves on this getaway. During our stay, Mr. and I also had dinner at the Terrafina Restaurant and tasted some wine in the Tasting Room.
If you think our Okanagan trip ended on the Golden Mile Bench, you're wrong. We decided to venture further north, driving more than 50 km, to Penticton, and visit another famous wine region - Naramata Bench. That area has just as many, if not more, wineries as Oliver/Osoyoos. We only had time to check out four wineries, so it was really difficult to shortlist from the dozens of wineries in the area.
Last year when we went camping in Oliver, we checked out a number of wineries along the Black Sage Bench. But Oliver is the Wine Capital of Canada, of course they have more wineries to offer! So when we were in Osoyoos this summer, we headed north and stopped by the wineries along the Golden Mile Bench, another area known for its great wines.
This is Part 2 of our winery visit in Oliver. Driving by more rows of vines, we had arrived at our next stop.
Mr. and I went camping in Oliver. Obviously we didn't waste our 4.5 hour drive to Oliver - we spent quite some time at local wineries, and here are some highlights.
