Welcome
Once a whimsical dream for a couple of city dwellers, Our Little Wine Farm has quickly transformed into a living, breathing, magical reality. We first stumbled across this property the same way that you are now, as guests. It was love at first sight. Little did we know the property was for sale, or that we would end up buying our future dream home a few short weeks later! For us, the property has become a family retreat, a gathering place for friends, and a serene escape to quiet the mind. It is an ideal setting to embrace the slower pace and enjoy the ‘petits plaisirs’ in life. We are happy to share it with you.
The farm is set on 9 acres of terraced land, offering stunning panoramic lake views from every corner, with 4 acres of planted grapes consisting of Cabernet Franc (the vineyard closest to the house), Merlot (the lower vineyard closest to the lake), and Semillon (the largest vineyard in the ravine to the North). We highly encourage strolls through the vines, as they offer both a romantic and reflective experience that is a joy for the senses.
Please note: we cannot accommodate weddings or events.
OUR GRAPES
CABERNET FRANC is medium bodied red wine whose origins likely lie in the Basque country of France. The wine is loved for its savory, bell pepper-like flavours, medium-high acidity and mouthwatering taste. It is an ideal food pairing wine. You can find single varietal Cabernet Franc wines, but the variety is also quite popular as a blending grape in the famous Bordeaux Blend.
MERLOT is a juicy, elegant, and versatile red grape variety that’s grown around the globe, but it’s world famous for its role in the luxurious blends of Bordeaux. While Merlot’s characteristics vary depending on the climate, soil, and winemaking techniques, wines made with the grape are typically dry and can show flavors of red and black fruits, softer tannins, and medium to medium-high body and acidity
SÉMILLON wine is loved for its full body, like Chardonnay, but with flavors closer to Pinot Gris or Sauvignon Blanc. It’s an important blending component in White Bordeaux, including the prized dessert wine, Sauternes. Wines can be surprisingly rich and when oaked, can taste similar to Chardonnay.
Located on the spectacular Naramata Bench, Our Little Wine Farm is a perfect launch point for all that the Okanagan has to offer. The property is walking distance to world class wineries, outstanding restaurants, and the charming town of Naramata. It is offers easy access to boating and water sports on Okanagan Lake, fantastic mountain biking on the Three Blind Mice network, the KVR trail, golf, tennis, skiing, and more.
