Black Hills Estate Winery is located on Black Sage Road south of Oliver "Wine Capital of Canada", and is known for its vineyards and wineries.

The desert-like conditions and ample sunshine, are ideal for grape ripening.

The area previously was planted primarily with apple and cherry orchards.

There are approximately 20 wineries around Black Sage Road. There are over 40 wineries in the Oliver and Osoyoos area, making it a major wine destination in British Columbia.

At Black Hills Estate Winery, we are dedicated to producing exceptional wines that showcase the unique terroir of the South Okanagan. Located on the Black Sage Bench, our vineyards thrive in the desert-like conditions that define this region. Since our founding in 1999, we’ve embraced both tradition and innovation, crafting wines that reflect the precision and passion behind every bottle.

The Black Sage Bench, shaped by ancient glaciers, features high-elevation, west-facing slopes perfect for cultivating vines. Our estate benefits from long, sunny days and cool nights, producing structured wines with deep fruit and elegance, enhanced by unique desert flora.
