AboutElephant Island Winery
Miranda and Del Halladay moved to their family property in Naramata in 1997 and launched Elephant Island Winery from the farm in 1999. Its early wines celebrated Okanagan orchard fruit, including pears, cherries, blackcurrants, apricots and crabapples, alongside fortified framboise and cassis.
The winery takes a low-intervention approach to fermenting its wines and ciders, using fruit from its own farm and from growers it knows. Naramata Cider Co., its dedicated cider range, is made from 100 percent local fruit.
Elephant Island Framboise 375 mL
Canadian Dessert
$31.99
Ripe raspberry, blackberry and rhubarb-jam flavours fill this fortified fruit wine, balancing generous sweetness with a vivid tart edge. Made entirely from fresh raspberries, it is rich and concentrated without losing its lively berry character. Pour a small glass after dinner, drizzle a little alongside dark chocolate desserts, or serve with cheesecake, vanilla ice cream or blue cheese.
Elephant Island Winery 2025 Blackberry Wine
Canadian Dessert
$33.99
Blackberry, strawberry, plum and cinnamon shape this fruit-wine profile. The finish is tangy and clean. Produced as a table wine from blackberries, it is part of a British Columbia orchard-wine range. Savoury pairing suggestions include grilled quail or fried chicken. The winery launched from its Naramata farm in nineteen ninety-nine, and the farm remains its home.
Naramata Cider Co. Rest Easy Dry Pear Cider 500 mL
Canadian Cider
$13.99
Fine bubbles carry a light, delicate pear cider with a distinctly dry and refreshing frame. Pear fruit sits alongside peppery spice, a touch of ginger and a subtle grassy note, giving the palate more dimension than simple sweetness. Fresh acidity and a foamy lift keep the finish clean and lively. Serve chilled with roast pork, mild curry, creamy cheese or a pear-and-fennel salad.
Naramata Cider Co. Rest Easy Dry Apple Cider 4-Pack
Canadian Cider
$20.99
Local British Columbia fruit gives this bone-dry cider a direct, orchard-led character. Fine bubbles lift green-apple freshness and mild fruit flavour, while subtle floral, grassy and gently spiced notes add detail without softening the clean structure. Smooth in texture and firmly dry through the finish, it is built for uncomplicated refreshment. Serve chilled with roast pork, fish and chips, hard cheese or savoury pastries.
Elephant Island 2022 Cassis
Canadian Dessert
$31.99
Deeply concentrated black currant fruit leads with an exuberant, almost liqueur-like intensity. The palate is rich and sweet, yet the vivid fruit keeps the profile energetic rather than heavy. A smooth, generous texture carries through the finish, leaving a long, unmistakably dark-berry impression with enough freshness to invite another small pour.
Elephant Island 2022 Apricot Wine
Canadian Dessert
$29.99
Fragrant ripe stone fruit opens with honey, tropical fruit and delicate floral notes. The palate is smooth and velvety, layering yellow plum and peach with a bright lift of citrus zest. Vibrant acidity keeps the natural sweetness fresh, while honeyed fruit and a subtle hint of spice linger through a long, polished finish.
Elephant Island 2025 Blackcurrant Wine
Canadian Dessert
$32.99
Vibrant cassis and dark berry fruit lead this medium-sweet, medium-bodied dessert wine. The palate is concentrated yet balanced, with lively acidity lifting the lush fruit and keeping the sweetness in check. A gently tangy line brings freshness to the close, leaving a generous, fruit-forward finish that remains bright and composed.
Elephant Island 2025 Cherry Wine
Canadian Dessert
$31.99
Ripe cherry opens with almond, gentle spice and a light floral note. The palate is smooth and concentrated, layering sweet cherry fruit with enough tartness to keep the texture lively. Subtle vanilla and earthy tones add depth, while a long, velvety finish carries cherry compote and soft spice without becoming heavy.
