Exhilarat!on Brut Rosé
Each one of our vineyards has a distinct microclimate, lending unique flavour characteristics to the Pinot Noir used in this Brut Rose.
A summer bouquet of raspberries, peach, and freshly cut watermelon. The effervescence and bright acidity develop in to an uplifting and crisp finish.
2020 Gidda Family Estate Royale III (Blanc de Blancs)
In 2020 We embarked on an experiment... to create the best Traditional Method Sparkling Wine we could from Bobby Gidda's homestead block of Chardonnay. A tribute to his wife and daughter (the Queen and Princess in his life) our resulting "Royale" Lineup was born. Our first experiment - Royale, was aged 12 months on lees. Now we are excited to present Royale III - an additional set of bottles that were held back from this vintage to test our sweet spot for lees ageing. Aged 36 Months on lees, this wine offers up additional layers of toasty complexity thanks to the test of time.
Try it on it's own, or compare it side by side with Royale. You can't go wrong with celebrating the royalty in your life.
Frizzante Rosé
Pale pink with creamy bubbles, this Frizzante charms instantly. Zweigelt and Pinot Noir bring bright aromas of strawberry, cherry, black currant and plum with a hint of white pepper. Medium-bodied with refreshing acidity, it tastes of strawberry jam and cherry licorice. The finish is mouthwatering and flirtatious—perfect with charcuterie, salads, grilled shrimp, or simply sunset sips.
Frind Sparkling Brut
Our traditional method Sparkling Brut is beautifully composed of Riesling and Chardonnay. The continuous bubbles create a soft mouthfeel and pop with aromas of ripe pear, citrus and toast.
2022 Fan Club Exclusive Sparkling Brut
Crisp, flavourful, and perfectly bubbly. Ideal pairings include celebrations, milestone anniversaries, and NYE. This traditional method Sparkling Brut is a JPC Fan Club Exclusive.
Beyond the Bubbles (Dessert, Fortified, & Bold Reds)
Summit 2019
Summit represents the pinnacle of everything we do at Mt. Boucherie. Our most cherished blocks from our estate vineyards are treated with the velvet gloves by Winemaker Jeff Hundertmark. The best barrels of the given vintage are selected after approximately 12 months, and then blended together for up to an additional year to develop in barrel. A further two years in bottle before release.
Farm Notes: The 2019 Summit is a blend of premium blocks from Lost Horn Vineyard in Okanagan Falls, South Rock Vineyard on the Golden Mile Bench, and Lazy River Vineyard in South Cawston.
Maker Notes: A wine filled with rich aromas and flavours of cassis, red fruit, cedar, and distinct mineral character. Summit is a great addition to any cellar and will reward those with patience, developin further complexity over the next decade. Aged in 100% French oak for 24 months, 35% of which was new. October 4th-October 31st
2022 Queue
Our Estate Vineyard in West Kelowna is a southern exposure site featuring volcanic soils chock-full of mineral deposits. It is one of the few sites in the Kelowna area that ripens blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. Queue not only captures the essence of these blocks, but it is also derived from the Latin word cõda which in music, is an arrangement that punctuates the end of a symphony. Queue - the winemaker’s composition.
This beautiful blend was hand-picked from the finest parcels on our estate. The grapes were then gently destemmed, fermented separately and spent between 10-16 days on the skins to develop deep, rich colour. Aged for 18 months in 100% new French oak before being meticulously blended.
NV Ross O Xmas Edition
2025 is coming to and end, brimming with festive cheer and a touch of nostalgia. Ross embodies not just a year, but a season of hopes, dreams, and merriment, capturing the spirit of a generation and now, the warmth of the holidays.
Cheers to the holidays, Ross; and a mighty huzzah to you, my merry imbiber. Together, we grow in wisdom and holiday cheer. Xo Muah!
Consists of: 47% Pinot Noir, 22% Gamay, 20% Merlot & 11% Surprise. If you were curious.
2020 Monarch Vineyard Syrah
Vineyard Source: Monarch Vineyards, South Okanagan — a family-owned estate with blocks in Oliver and Osoyoos. Silty Paradise Block provides mineral-driven elegance, sandy West Bench delivers bold structure, and elevated East Bench produces intense, spicy reds.
Winemaking: Aged 50 months — 50% second-fill American oak and 50% neutral French oak — enhancing complexity while preserving the vineyard’s expressive character.
Nose: Tobacco, cocoa powder, huckleberry
Taste: Red peppercorns, black currant, leather
Vintage: 2020 — marked by early bud break, warm summer days, and cool nights that preserved aromatics and balance. Smoke slightly delayed harvest and lowered yields, resulting in fresh, concentrated wines with vibrant acidity and ripe tannins.
2023 Small Batch Red
This bright, bold wine is a blend of Pinot and Frontenac Noir. Frontenac Noir is a dark-skinned, winter-hearty hybrid that produces a medium-bodied wine with all kinds of fresh and juicy fruit on the nose and palate. This, combined with the delicate and elegant nature of the Pinot Noir, makes for a well-balanced and easy-drinking red. Medium body and well-integrated oak. Think cherry, raspberry, and strawberry on the palate. Perfect for pairing (think burgers or spaghetti bolognese) and for sharing (this is not mandatory but encouraged).
2013 Sauvignon Blanc Icewine
More of a traditional dessert wine style, with notes of baked apples, honey, dried and fresh apricots, blended with a gooseberry finish.
