Arrowleaf is a family-owned and operated winery founded in 2001 by the Zuppiger family. In 1986, Joe and Margrit Zuppiger and their five children immigrated to Canada from Switzerland (the Zurich area) where they had been operating an organic orchard and dairy farm. They continued dairy farming in Alberta, settling south of Edmonton. After 10 years in the dairy business, they moved to the Okanagan and purchased Suncrest Vineyard and, two years later, the Carter Farm, the current location of the winery. For the first five years, they grew grapes for Gray Monk Estate Winery to establish their own winery.
Intrigue Wines was established in 2008 when two families joined to explore their passion for wine. The strength of the partnership is in the complementary experiences that each partner brings to the table. A winemaker, an accountant, an internet entrepreneur and a healthcare advisor - all pursuing their fascination and curiosity for wine.
Inspired by Dennis O’Rourke’s pioneering spirit and passion for innovation, this state-of-the-art winery is waiting for you to explore. The estate-grown portfolio includes Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Rosé, Chardonnay, Grüner Veltliner and Pinot Noir.
You'll visit the 7-acre property, home of their Goldie Road Vineyard in Lake Country. Wine isn’t the only thing the property produces; the half-acre organic vegetable garden and two greenhouses supply the highest quality fruits and vegetables for the Garden Bistro. Combining high-quality wines with delicious cuisine makes O’Rourke’s Peak Cellars a leading destination.
Isaac (their crazy farmer and co-founder) has been farming organically since birth. His parents came to Cawston, BC, with a dream and no farming experience. His father, Billy, knew that something needed to be done to connect the organic growers with the consumer, so he started Cawston Cold Storage. It is now Canada's most prominent organic fruit packing house, packing over 17 million pounds of organic fruit annually.
This is what makes their cider so unique. They use juice-grade apples that come out of C/A storage. Many juice apples aren't this high quality, and juicing from a fresh and crisp apple gives their cider a clean and fresh taste that doesn't need much added. Just simple, pure and organic.
Their production facility and tasting room are on their Certified Organic Farm, where they are committed to environmental sustainability and biodiversity. Not only do they use our organic apples, but they also incorporate our other organic fruit and fruit from other farmers in the area.
The team at Upside Cider is proud and excited to present Kelowna's first Organic Cider. They hope you enjoy both the flavour and the authenticity.
The Garden Bistro at O'Rourke's Peak Cellars offers scenic seats on the vineyard-side patio with breathtaking views of surrounding orchards, rolling mountains and Okanagan Lake. An onsite ½ acre organic vegetable garden and two greenhouses, only a step away from the Bistro, give their culinary team the freshest veggies and herbs to incorporate into his daily menu, showcasing true local flavours, the ultimate farm-to-table experience all year round!
The Garden Bistro menu complements the wines and explores seasonal flavours through the guests’ palate. These flavour combinations and ingredients pair beautifully with the unique taste of their aromatic white wines, 100% estate grown in Carrs Landing, Lake Country.

Positive: Professionalism , Quality , Value A perfect day trip (Aug 13/21), our guide, AJ, was awesome. The pace, vineyards, lunch location, and WINE were excellent. Due to the smoke the other guests cancelled and we ended up with an impromptu private tour. We were very efficient with our time (no line ups!) and AJ was able to get us into a couple of extra tastings. We recommend the Scenic Sip Tour to anyone!

Positive: Professionalism , Quality , Responsiveness , Value We had an absolute blast on our Scenic Sip Tour!! Sarah was an amazing tour guide and we enjoyed every stop along the way! 10/10 day! Will definitely be booking with Wicked Wine Tours again next time we visit!!!
Birthday girls trip yesterday, the Scenic Sip Tour with Wicked and it was fantastic for the most part. Booking back in March, with all the uncertainty of COVID, Nicholas was flexible and accommodated our requests and multiple changes to pax. Very fast and clear communications and info provided. Sarah was our guide and she could not have been more amazing! She was upbeat and fun, on top of our inquiries and assisted us with our wines. Timing and transport were great, and she worked so hard all day to keep us hydrated, happy, and cooled off. The only small issue we had was the winery restaurant lunch had slow service issues and some of the food had unreasonably small portions of protein which was unfortunate because it was otherwise pleasant and tasty. Definitely not due to Wicked but a bit frustrating nonetheless given the high temperature outside. Overall a huge success and I'd recommend Wicked Wine Tours. Will book again with them for sure!

Outstanding service and would highly recommend! My friend and I booked the 6 hour Scenic Sip Tour and we travelled Lake Country and it was such a great day. Nick’s attention to detail and knowledge of the local area truly made this an unforgettable experience - this is a must-do in Kelowna!
Gerry made the whole experience awesome! He was very knowledgeable. We enjoyed the scenic sip tour and met some great people. Highly recommended Wicked. Will definitely book Wicked again on our next visit and already have recommended them to anyone thinking of travelling to Kelowna. Many thanks from the Kyle’s from Saskatchewan!
