Welcome to Elephant Island Orchard Wines...
There are no elephants and there is no island but the vanguard spirit does rein supreme here.

Classic wine making traditions fused with a dose of fun, a passion for fresh, local fruit and a love of challenge are the foundations of our wine portfolio.

Wines to amuse and to amaze...
Expect the unexpected and prepare for a flavor voyage!

In all that Olympic fervor abated we almost missed the signs.

Spring in all her glory seems to be setting an oylmpic record of her own. Crocuses are blooming and buds are swelling. Here’s to getting everything pruned in time and hoping we don’t get another late cold snap, a la 2008. 

Flowers mean wine can’t be far behind + the new release front is shaping up beautifully. If you have not subscribed to our waitlist, pop us an email and get the jump on the ’09 releases: Framboise, Black Currant Wine, Black Berry Wine, Cassis and Pink Elephant are almost ready to hit the shelves again.  

Spring is also a sure sign that the Elephant will load the trunk with wine and hit the road for some tasty annual forays into the big city. Get your tix early for the always popular + ever evolving Naramata Bench Spring Release events in Vancouver and Victoria, April 12th + 14th respectively. Tix are now available at www.naramatabench.com . 

If you’re coming our way, be sure to mark the following Naramata dates on your calendar:

Saturday, May 1st & 8th: Understanding Bubbles … get captivated by the art and science of creating Sparkling Wine as we unleash the 4th vintage of Pink Elephant. (… fun stuff is happening at lots of Naramata Bench wineries today…)
