A harsh winter decimated the Okanagan and Similkameen grape growing season .

Estimates that this year ’s provincewide harvest will be down 97 -99 per cent due to bud and vine loss.

While there are signs of hope in terms of vine recovery, significant replanting is underway.

Right now, the best way to support local wineries is to get out and buy bottles currently available.
