Origin Wines
Unfussy and fun, Origin has a simple philosophy – ‘to help you find a wine you love.’ And there’s plenty to love here, from the high quality wines to the spectacular Okanagan Lake panoramas from the expansive lawn patio.

Located right on Naramata Road, Wesbert is one of the newer names on the Naramata bench. The Joubert family, originally from South Africa, took over the winery in 2019.
Housed in one of the most striking buildings around, Hillside Winery is also one of the oldest wineries on the Naramata Bench. Proudly producing wines from only 100% Naramata grapes, Hillside believes in harnessing nature rather than interfering it.
Lock & Winery maintains a purist approach to winemaking, focusing on single vineyard wines that are unrefined and unfiltered. Less than 1000 cases are produced each year. Think high quality terroir driven wines made simply and priced reasonably.
One of the newest additions to the Naramata Bench, Chain Reaction Winery is both exceptionally convenient for visitors and also incredibly scenic. The estate vineyard is just above Naramata Road – look for the distinctive purple sign!
Experience a taste of Italy on the Naramata Bench at D’Angelo Estate Winery. The Naramata Bench isn’t necessarily renowned for red wines (yet!) but if you prefer red wines over white, D’Angelo should be top of your list to visit.
Keeping things fun and funky on the Bench since 2008, Ruby Blues likes to show guests a good time. And it clearly works, with Ruby Blues being one of the most visited wineries on the Bench.
A Naramata Bench mainstay, Red Rooster specialises in approachable yet well-crafted premium wines. Despite being owned by wine giant Andrew Peller (Sandhill, Tinhorn Creek, Gray Monk), the winery still retains a distinctively independent identity.
Specialising in precise grape management, small batch ferments and the finest French Oak, Little Engine aims for perfection in every bottle. Little Engine is an essential stop for wine enthusiasts, especially those who love Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
La Frenz consistently wins numerous winery awards year after year. It’s easy to see why, with the winery’s attention to detail all the way from bud burst to final blending and bottling. Tastings are held on the gorgeous patio, with views that were featured on the Canadian $100 bill in 1954.
