Founded on a commitment to sustainability, the maintenance of diversity of the Naramata Bench agricultural landscape and a fascination with fermentation, Elephant Island has grown to include a line of premium fruit based, and grape-based wines, and locally-grown small batch ciders. The drinks created here are born in sunshine and clay banks, late afternoon lake breezes, cool starry nights, and the tapestry of farms in a magical little village called Naramata. They speak to the critters, trees, and vines that we share our home and farm with, and to the family dinners and orchard picnics that have anchored the family life over three generations of farming this land. The wines and ciders are real, raw, and a true reflection of life and nature, joys and heartbreaks.
Most importantly they are made to share – to weave together moments and memories far and wide, to inspire conversation and meal making. They are a commitment to place and community, and reflect our support for a diverse farm landscape that is healthy for all, from the birds and the bees to the people.
Elephant Island remains a magical place to sit under the trees, to be amused and amazed by wines that seek to capture the spirit and essence of this place: of fun, and of whimsy… all afternoon long.
