Moraine is a must try winery. The wines are fantastic. The Chardonnay is buttery and delicious. The staff is fantastic and the view is beautiful. Currently under renovations but don’t let that scare you off. Looking forward to what’s to come for this winery.

We had a great tasting with Eric who was very knowledgeable and spent a lot of time answering our questions. Left with two reds and a white but easily could have bought more. Really enjoyed hearing about the thought and technique going into the wine.

Another one of my top five on the bench. Won lots of awards for the Riesling but I enjoyed their reds even more. The tasting room is a little drab but theyre in the midst of building a new one! They do have a small patio overlooking the vineyard and down to the lake to enjoy their fabulous wine.

I feel at the bottom of my heart that the real reason to visit any wine region (defined personally as having more than…I don’t know…one winery) is to visit the family-run estate wineries. Surprisingly, these can range from colossal cathedrals in the worship of viticulture to the petite businesses where the tasting room doubles as a family’s kitchen. Moraine appears on the surface to fall somewhere between. Their production is large enough to find the product most anywhere in BC, but only the most focused tourists would catch the signs for the winery on the road. My girlfriend and I were on vacation through Okanagan wine country. Over six days, we visited sixty wineries. That’s sixty wineries, not an exaggeration. We ended the trip with 120 bottles acquired. Three of those were from Moraine, which speaks volumes considering how many are jammed in the Naramata bench. It’s getting to be like a Japanese subway in that region. On our second trip a few weeks ago, we completely missed the signs for it and ended up skipping the location. A damned shame mitigated by the knowledge that my home town boasts a Wines of BC department in our local Save-On. Moraine makes good wine, and that should be enough reason to visit the winery if driving by, but the location itself isn’t anything special. There’s no black lighting or thirty-foot tall ceilings. The entrance door is not a wooden sculpture worth more than my car. The tasting room is diminutive but matching the rest of the austerity of the winery. It all looks…kind of plain. But I also bought three bottles. So, it’s still worth it. On our visit, we snagged both a Cliffhanger White and a Cliffhanger Red, both of which remain sealed in my cellar. The third is a rather petite yet imposing pipette of Twin Peaks Cab Franc/Merlot Icewine. That one will be opened soon. Moraine is not particularly memorable. The winery is lackluster; their bottles are plain, but the wine is good, and that’s all that matters.
