Little Straw Vineyards Estate Winery

Welcome to Little Straw Vineyards, a family-owned winery established in 1996. Our winemaker, Peter Slamka, is known for his exceptional Pinot Noirs and for producing the only Auxerrois Icewine in Canada. The majority of grapes we use come from our own vineyards situated on the lower slopes of Mount Boucherie near Kelowna, British Columbia. We produce a complete range of wines with something to suit most every taste.

Thirty-eight years ago the Slamka family planted their first vines in the Okanagan Valley in preparation for a vineyard. In 1996, the three Slamka brothers took on the challenge of establishing their own winery. Wines vinted from the hot summer grapes of 1994 made up our first commercial releases. A blend of traditional growing techniques, modern wine making practices, and mature vines all combine to create the unique, rewarding taste of our wines. Our estate-grown Pinot Noirs and Icewines have achieved growing recognition and we have begun producing Sauvignon Blanc, a varietal which is gaining popularity among BC consumers.
