Anna Manola and Victor, her late husband, grew up amid vineyards in Romania. In Canada, they followed teaching and business careers until purchasing this riverside property in the south Okanagan. Now with an elegant winery, the location is so idyllic Anna insists the meaning of the first three digits in its postal code mean “Valley Of Heaven.”
Particularly accomplished at making fruit wines, she continued to manage the winery after Victor passed away in a 2002 winery accident. Anna also continues to make some of Victor’s most original creations – Sage Grand Reserve, a gewürztraminer fermented with wild sage, and The Flame, an aperitif wine with chilli peppers in each bottle.
