From the heart of British Columbia's Okanagan Valley, welcome to Gray Monk Estate Winery, which was established in 1972 by George and Trudy Heiss. Working with the Heiss family, Gray Monk is now proudly owned and operated by Andrew Peller Limited. The Gray Monk Estate is comprised of 25 acres of lush vineyards overlooking Okanagan Lake, in addition to premium grapes sourced throughout the Okanagan Valley, to produce some of the world's finest wines.
Very COVID protected. Wines fit the long term standard of Gray Monk. Disappointing but understandable that family winery has sold out to a major company in Pellar. Still one of the good large volume wineries and has a great restaurant

Surpised to find so much at this unassuming little park. There's a lovely walk along the water, beach, playground, picnic area, large gazebo, washrooms, and huge weeping willow trees for shade. The location on a peninsula leaves you feeling like you're on an island, a quiet oasis to enjoy nature. Lovely!

When we were deciding what to call our winery we wondered; "What is it about wine that captivates us, that keeps us coming back for more, and that still interests us after all these years?"Some people like to know where the wine comes from. Others like to know who made it or how it will change with time. The foodies want to know what flavours they will find in their glass and how it will pair with a certain dish.We're all intrigued about wine. It's constantly changing and evolving. That is part of the excitement and allure of winemaking.We came together as partners out of a passion for wine. The strength of the partnership is in the complimentary experience that each of us brings to the table. A winemaker, an accountant, an internet entrepreneur and a business advisor
We stopped in while touring area wineries and were very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the wines. The size of samples was appropriate and the price of the wines very reasonable. Keep it up and we'll be back!

Truly one of Canada’s exemplary destination wineries set in the heart of Okanagan Wine Country. 50th Parallel Estate is a majestic 61 acre site near the shores of Lake Okanagan boasting panoramic lake views and rare granite soils. Winemakers Matthew Fortuna and Grant Stanley have produced the winery’s world-renowned Pinot Noir and aromatic white wines.
This small winery ( 50 th Parallel Estates) in lake Country BC has one of the best restaurants I have eaten at. I am not an expert but I do know what is great and the meal we had today was great! Awesome service, delectable oysters, fabulous crab cakes, and at the risk of sounding small world the best ever carrot cake dessert , ever, pretty sure it was chef made vanilla ice cream. In house ketchup and hot sauce and horse radish. You need to eat here! Go at happy hour and try things out!

We did the yellow, blue and then red trails to the summit. The North Outlook on the blue trail was disappointing as a viewing area, but the approx 2km loop was worth it. Excellent marked trails and well-cleared and cared for - the volunteers who do this are to be highly commended! And the maps at the start of the yellow trail were really appreciated - all together it took about 90 minutes to summit, and 45 mins to come back (didn't do the blue trail loop on the return). Views from the summit are SPECTACULAR! Highly recommended this for a fun outdoor event - note that it is pretty challenging the last few hundred meters... Great time!

The estate-grown portfolio showcases Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Rosé, Chardonnay, Grüner Veltliner and Pinot. The Gewürztraminer was my favorite so I picked up 8 bottles and the price was reasonable!

Extraordinary wines that give life to our unique place in the Okanagan Valley. We create wines that embody the essence of our unique location in the Okanagan Valley, giving life to a sense of place that defines our winery. It’s a sense that reflects the opportunities that come with each season, the stories of the vintages and the character in every bottle. The experiences, understanding and dedication of the people who nurture the vines and produce our wines. A sense, out of nothing, of a lifelong dream to create wines of which we can forever be proud. We welcome you to Ex Nihilo Vineyards, our tasting room, gallery and restaurant, and look forward to sharing it with you.
My wife and I had a fabulous dinner last night at the winery. We requested to be seated inside and we were given a candlelit window table overlooking the lake and sunset, inside the tasting room. Very romantic. Their chef can cook! Some of the best food we have had in the Okanagan. Also well priced, especially considering that you are eating and walking through a beautiful winery. The corkage fee on our bottle of wine was $10.00. We had the merlot, fantastic wine. Can’t give enough superlatives about our dining experience. Our waitress Melissa was so friendly and attentive to our needs. Also in these challenging times the winery did a great job with Covid safety protocols. We always felt safe and were well distanced from other guests. Masks were worn by staff so don’t hesitate if your looking for a great meal in a very special location.
