The GOODS from CedarCreek Estate Winery

Kelowna, BC | The “M” is unique. Partially fermented in barrel, we arrest its fermentation by adding spirit. Then we begin a five-year-long labour of love. Each day, weather permitting, we roll the barrel out onto the crush deck and into the sun. There it sits until the evening when we roll it back in and tuck it away for the night. In winter, it lives in a nice, cozy heated room. Five years later, the 225 litres of liquid we put in to the barrel reduces to just 150 litres as water evaporates and flavours concentrate. A note on storage: after opening, your “M” will keep for about a year.

It is the ONLY Madeira-style wine made in BC – and we believe in Canada, but that’s still to be ascertained.

Pairings: This wine would pair perfectly with deserts, aged cheeses and blue cheese. And if you like your wine by itself, this would be the perfect way to start an evening, serve at a reception. If you want to sway away from the traditional bubble, the ‘M’ is a unique alternative to ring in the New Year!

Available at the CedarCreek Estate Winery Wine Shop.

About CedarCreek Estate Winery

Purchased in 1986, CedarCreek released its first wines in 1987 and was one of the first 8 pioneering wineries of BC. With four generations of agricultural heritage and more than a quarter century of experience, we have pursued perfection and produced some of the valley’s best wines resulting in CedarCreek being twice recognized as “Canada’s Winery of the Year”. Today, we look proudly towards the future to further promote our region.

In February of 2014 the Fitzpatrick family announced the transfer of ownership of CedarCreek Estate Winery to the von Mandl Family. With this, two of the region’s pioneering winemaking families have come together with a shared vision for the Okanagan Valley, one that will continue the Fitzpatrick family legacy for generations to come.

Our knowledge of the terroir of the Okanagan and dedication to the craft have brought many awards and international acclaim, to our winery and our region. We are committed to building on our success by continuing to refine our approach to wine growing. Passion, tenacity, care and hard work are vital but above all we seek truth in wine. And the results show in every bottle. On that, you have our word.
