Seaside Pearl Farmgate Winery

Seaside Pearl Farmgate Winery grows grapes at Abbotsford (Mount Lehman), in the Fraser Valley appellation of British Columbia.

Where it sits

Seaside Pearl Farmgate Winery is at Abbotsford (Mount Lehman), and its fruit falls inside Fraser 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, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Petit Milo and Cabernet Foch.

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: five acres of estate-grown fruit.

Visiting

Chapel Tasting Room, guided tastings $15pp, plus Barrel Room lounge

Also in British Columbia: See Ya Later Ranch, Serendipity Winery. The full list is on the British Columbia page.
