Beaufort Vineyard & Estate Winery
Beaufort Vineyard & Estate Winery grows grapes at Courtenay, in the Vancouver Island appellation of British Columbia. It dates its founding to 2007.
Where it sits
Beaufort Vineyard & Estate Winery is at Courtenay, and its fruit falls inside Vancouver Island, one of the recognised growing areas of British Columbia. What a geographic claim means on a label differs by province — the Canadian wineries page sets out how.
What it grows
The winery works with Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, Marechal Foch, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Ortega, Siegerrebe, Petite Milo, Schonburger, Leon Millot and Lucie Kuhlmann.
Where a grape has a page here, it covers how that variety behaves in Canadian conditions: the heat it needs to ripen, the Brix it reaches, and where it is planted.
Vineyard area: 18 acres.
Visiting
'Open Wednesday-Sunday, 1-5 PM'; patio tastings and guided vineyard tours
Also in British Columbia: Beaumont Family Estate Organic Winery, Black Hills Estate Winery. The full list is on the British Columbia page.
