Roche Wines

Roche Wines grows grapes at Penticton, in the Naramata Bench sub-appellation of British Columbia. It dates its founding to 2017.

Where it sits

Roche Wines 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 Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Pinot Gris and Zweigelt.

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: 6 acres adjoining the winery.
