“We are born at a given moment, in a given place and,
like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season
of which we are born.” ~ Carl Jung

Desert Vineyards Provide
a Unique Terroir for Tinhorn’s Wines
One wouldn't expect to see regal grapevines mingling with desert-dwelling sagebrush, but at Tinhorn Creek Vineyards, the two flourish side-by-side like old friends. Set atop a hillside in the middle of British Columbia’s famed Golden Mile wine-growing district, Tinhorn Creek Vineyard and Winery crafts quality wines from grapes harvested from their 150-acre vineyards. Planted on two distinct benches, the Diamondback Vineyard and the Tinhorn Creek Vineyard produce grapes of both the red and white varietals, allowing the vineyard’s winemaker, Sandra Oldfield, to harvest only the best fruit for the winery’s esteemed Pinot Gris, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Gewürztraminer vintages. Each of Tinhorn Creek’s wines boasts the unique terroir of its desert topography.
