Dino and the team at Grape Escapes Wine Tours have worked hard to create something special to showcase this unique region. In fact, they have recently been recognized with a 2014 Certificate of Excellence from Trip Advisor. It just goes to show what can happen when you put your passion to work for you.
The Okanagan and Similkameen Valleys are already known for the wines that they produce, but Grape Escapes Wine Tours wants to show visitors and locals alike that our region has so much more to offer. This great agricultural region can not only fill your glass but your plate as well.
The Field Guide and the team at Grape Escapes are working together to create a tour package for this fall that will allow participants a private tour by Tarynn Parker.
If you’re visiting the valley, or even if you live here, visit the Grape Escapes Tours website at www.grapeescapes.ca. Sign up for one of their tour packages and take a trip along the Naramata Bench, meander along Bottleneck Drive, explore Okanagan Falls, or wander the South Okanagan. Let their certified wine professionals show you the many treasures of this amazing region; see the winemaking process first hand; enjoy a freshly prepared lunch in a delightful vineyard setting; learn professional tasting techniques; seek out small production and hard to find award winning wines, and above all, have lots of fun in a casual, social environment.
