The Viognier grows at our Perfect Hedge Vineyard in Osoyoos and BullPine vineyard. An hour south of the Naramata Bench winery site, this vineyard is hotter and provides the extra heat units that Viognier requires to ripen fully.
INSIDER TIP: The trick with Viognier is to get optimal ripeness without losing acidity, thus choosing the right day to pick is critical.

Laughing Stock has created our 5th vintage of a Rosé wine. "In the Pink" is a financial expression that describes an investor or the economy as being in a good financial position or in good health. At the winery, not every year is a 'pink year', but our Rosé is an indicator of a great harvest, and besides, who doesn't enjoy a glass of Rosé on a hot Okanagan day.

Syrah has become a powerful varietal for BC winegrowers, both in terms of its success in growing well in the south Okanagan, and for what it has been delivering in the glass. Estate grown on our Perfect Hedge vineyard in Osoyoos, the style is inspired by Côte-Rôtie in the northern Rhône, blending 95% Syrah with 5% Viognier. This classic technique gives the nose a slight floral lift and softens the pepper note ever so slightly.
INSIDER TIP: 100% of this wine was fermented as whole berry, which slows down the release of tannins imparting a silkiness to the tannins and a lush roundness to the Syrah.
