Instead, we commit to a by-hand, Old World approach to winemaking. We are deliberately small in production and deliberately patient in our process, because we believe that working in tune with nature is the only way to capture the clean, rich, multilayered flavours of premium fruit. We make iconoclastic, award-winning wines full of flavour and complexity. Be a part of this delicious revolution.

RUST WINE CO

rustwine.com•250-498-3276 4444 Golden Mile Road PLAN YOUR VISIT

The EVOLUTION of rust is UNSCRIPTED. Its colours emerge from the touch of NATURE and blend into entirely unpredicted formations. Rust therefore serves as a perfect metaphor for wine. While people can nudge the process along its way, the final product is determined by the LIFE of the vines, the development of the VINTAGE, and the moment or memories of its ENJOYMENT. One of the most wonderful characteristics of wine – which it shares with rust – is that it is truly ALIVE, EVOLVING, TIMELESS and BEAUTIFUL.

MOON CURSER VINEYARDS

mooncurser.com•250-495-5161 3628 Hwy 3 East PLAN YOUR VISIT

The Moon Curser name pays tribute to the gold smuggling history of Osoyoos. Moon Curser wines, however, break from tradition. The winery’s focus has always been on making premium wines from old-world grape varieties not previously planted in the Okanagan such as Tannat, Dolcetto and Touriga Nacional. These varieties have not historically been a part of the South Okanagan viticulture, but thrive in the distinctive terroir of the Osoyoos East Bench and continue to deliver unique, world class interpretations of these wines. Moon Curser was recognized as #1 Best Performing Small Winery at the 2019 WineAlign National Wine Awards of Canada.
