Orofino Vineyards
Orofino Vineyards grows grapes at Cawston, in the Similkameen Valley appellation of British Columbia.
Where it sits
Orofino Vineyards is at Cawston, and its fruit falls inside Similkameen Valley, 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 Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Riesling, Muscat, Petit Verdot, Gamay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Pinot Gris.
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.
