Loads of information and a stellar wine collection for sale..obviously specializing in wines of the region. The lady we engaged with was very knowledgeable about the wines, their provenence, and especially pricing. Lots of useful tourist info (the Okanagan generally well set up with tourist info) including on restauratns to try. East parking and easy access to Hwy 97. Really worth stopping in.

Regular visitors to Penticton know this is one of the best wine selections in the valley. However the shop has been temporarily moved to trailers at the opposite of the parking while their old home is being incorporated into a new casino. However no expense has been spared in making this temporary locale a great shopping experience. Check it out before they move to their new home in Spring 2017.

While part of the Penticton charm is visiting the winereies, this is a great place to drop by and purchase those you don't have time for. As well the staff are wonderful at suggestions for the area. They also have fabulous gifts too!😀

Out for a walk with my guy, and we went to the Visitor Centre to pick up a VQA wine card for a present. The team their were welcoming, helpful, and cared that we showed up. It happened to be a cloudy windy day in Penticton. We were invited to try some wine and we looked at other wines and enjoyed the furniture (I thought it was very innovative and wouldn't mind it at my home). A great place to get information or that special bottle for friends, family, or for a wonderful evening with your loved one. A definite recommendation from me.

Penticton has a beautiful Visitor center, but it also includes and Wine Center, you can buy wines from all over the Okanagan. It is set up very well with lots of selection. They even have cold wine and a nice shopping area. You will be impressed.

We started off our Wine Tour with GrapeEscapes at the VQA Centre and it was quite pleasant. We did our first tasting here and the woman whom helped us was very friendly and informative. The gift shop was also very neat with a lot of wines and wine accessories to choose from.
