After a morning of stingy pours (really, how am I supposed to be able to tell if I want to buy your wine If you don't even give me a full sip), Desert Hills was a refreshing relief.

Not only did the host of the small space provide proper pours along…More »

We didn't manage to do a tasting here as we were hungry & ate at their Old Vines restaurant instead, but we did come up after our meal to buy two bottles of the Chenin Blanc - the best BC wine I've ever had. They had no problem locating a couple of…More »

Three stars for convenience & friendly service. It…More »
