Our Perspective
Tinhorn Creek Vineyards offers a comprehensive wine experience rooted in the rich terroir of the South Okanagan. Established in 1993, the winery has grown to encompass 150 acres across two distinct vineyards: Tinhorn Creek Vineyard on the west bench and Diamondback Vineyard on the Black Sage Bench. These locations provide unique growing conditions that contribute to the diversity and quality of Tinhorn Creek's wines.
Visitors to Tinhorn Creek can explore a variety of tasting experiences. The Explorer Experience is a great introduction, featuring a flight of three wines for $15 per person, complimentary for wine club members. For a more immersive experience, the Premium Seated Tasting offers a curated flight of five wines, showcasing the best of the Golden Mile Bench and Black Sage Bench. There's also the Black Glass Experience, a fun challenge where guests taste four wines blindfolded and try to identify the varietals, with a waived fee for correct guesses.
Dining at Miradoro Restaurant is another highlight. The menu, inspired by Mediterranean cuisine, pairs perfectly with Tinhorn Creek's wines. Guests can enjoy dishes made from fresh, local ingredients while overlooking stunning vineyard views. Regular events, such as the summer concert series and special wine club gatherings, enhance the community atmosphere and provide additional reasons to visit.
