The Heart of Wine Country

With at least 40 wineries within a 20 minute drive of Osoyoos, wine-lovers can experience exceptional dining, lively atmosphere, and ample entertainment on a whim. In addition to tastings and tours, wineries in the area have been known to host culinary classes and concerts on their venues for the community to enjoy.
