Sumac Ridge was B.C.’s first operating estate winery. For 37 years they’ve taken the finest grapes from the Southern Okanagan Valley and crafted them into delicious wines. Grapes grown in the Sumac Ridge vineyards include Gewürztraminer, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Black Sage wines are crafted by winemaker Jason James. The Black Sage Bench has become renowned for the quality of bold red wines it produces, and Jason’s wines showcase what happens when the right vines are planted in the right location.
