Wineries

Poplar Grove Winery

Poplar Grove Winery grows grapes at Penticton, in the Naramata Bench sub-appellation of British Columbia. It dates its founding to 1993.

Where it sits

Poplar Grove Winery is at Penticton, and its fruit falls inside Naramata 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 Cabernet Franc, Pinot Gris, Viognier, Muscat, Chardonnay, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Malbec.

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: more than 160 acres of estate vineyards.
