Pentâge Winery

Pentâge Winery grows grapes at Penticton, in the Skaha Bench sub-appellation of British Columbia. It dates its founding to 1999.

Where it sits

Pentâge Winery is at Penticton, and its fruit falls inside Skaha Bench, nested within Okanagan 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 Gewürztraminer, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Gamay, Petit Verdot, Viognier, Pinot Gris, Malbec, Zinfandel, Grenache Noir, Mourvèdre, Roussanne, Marsanne and Tempranillo.

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.
