Winery Description: Tantalus Vineyards, established in 2004 by proprietor Eric Savics, is a distinguished winery located in South East Kelowna, British Columbia. The estate's vineyard, originally known as Pioneer Vineyards, was first planted with table grapes in 1927 by local horticulturist J.W. Hughes. Today, Tantalus focuses on producing premium, single-vineyard wines, particularly Riesling, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay, from some of the oldest continuously producing vines in the region. In 2010, Tantalus built British Columbia's first LEED-certified winery, underscoring its commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. Visitors to the winery can enjoy spectacular lake views, a state-of-the-art facility, and a gallery-style tasting room showcasing works from acclaimed Canadian artists. The tasting room operates daily from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the summer months, offering a unique and enriching wine-tasting experience.
