Valley of the Springs Winery

Valley of the Springs Winery grows grapes at Nakusp, in the Kootenays appellation of British Columbia.

Where it sits

Valley of the Springs Winery is at Nakusp, and its fruit falls inside Kootenays, 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, Gamay, Pinot Noir, Zweigelt, Pinot Gris, Siegerrebe, Ortega and Rivaner.

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.
