AboutThe Hatch
The plan for The Hatch began in 2013, and its West Kelowna wine shop opened in May 2015 under winemaker Jason Parkes. A weathered vineyard shed became its rustic tasting room, created to make wine feel less intimidating.
Parkes favours wines with acidity and character, without sticking to rigid categories. Original artwork and stories are developed for the wine labels as part of each release.
The Hatch 2024 B.Yanco White Blend
Canadian White
Juicy Meyer lemon and candied mandarin appear in the aromas. Fuzzy peach and green apple follow in the fruit profile, with slight minerality on the finish. This British Columbia white blend comes from the Okanagan Valley. The winery works in West Kelowna, favours acidity and individual character, and pairs each wine with a distinctive illustrated label.
The Hatch 2021 Ross O Red Blend
Canadian Red
Coffee bean, plum and black pepper accompany red plum, strawberry and mixed-berry notes. Juicy cherry and plum sit within a savoury, lively profile. The dry red combines Merlot and Pinot Noir from British Columbia's Okanagan Valley and contains twelve percent alcohol. Suggested pairings include smoked meat, roast turkey sandwiches and mushroom crostini. Its name reflects rosso, the Italian word for red.

The Hatch 2020 Unicorn of the Sea
Canadian Red
Violet and blueberry-muffin aromas introduce a plush, dark-fruited red. Vanilla bean and a creamy coffee note come through on the palate, followed by stewed fruit, brown butter and cocoa. Equal parts Syrah and Malbec, it spent 52 months in oak, finishing rich and jammy with a generous, rounded sense of depth.
