About the winery
Located in the South Okanagan, near Oliver, BC, the Sandhill Estate Vineyard is an exceptional site for growing single-vineyard wines. In addition, the collaboration between master winemaker, Howard Soon and vineyard managers, Robert Goltz and Richard Cleave, continues to yield award-winning wine, vintage after vintage. Individual plant yields are controlled by cutting immature fruit from the vines. The result is small, fully-ripe grapes with concentrated flavours and a truly distinct character.
