High atop the western hills of the South Okanagan's Golden Mile sits Antelope Ridge Estate Winery. This expansive site provided us with one of the most stunning views we've had the opportunity to take in so far.

The production read more...facility there is state of the art, and was envisioned by 10th generation French winemaker Olivier Combret and his family in 1992. The site was selected by Combret based on its ability to produce world-class grapes without the pesticides that were required in other more humid regions.

Antelope Ridge is worth visiting for the view alone, but visitors should also sample Combret's premium wines in the winery's modest tasting room and wine shop.

Antelope Ridge's wines are grown on the estate and reflect the terroir of the region. A wine to note is the Chardonnay Icewine, which won gold medal at the 2006 Chardonnay du Monde in France. Past Chardonnays have gained international attention. They offer two labels - St. Vincent (reserve) and Lineage.

The tasting room, while open from 9 am to dusk, is not always staffed, as the Combrets are often busy attending to the many tasks that come with running a winery and vineyard. As such, you may be required to use a buzzer at the tasting room door to request service.

Last Word:

The drive to this winery is beautiful and the site provides a great vantage point of the whole southern part of the valley.    (hide)
