About
Welcome to Sage Hayward Vineyards, a family-owned estate found on Saturna, one of the “string of jewels” that comprise BC’s Gulf Islands. Nestled on a south-facing sea bench between sheer cliffs and ocean currents, the fields stretch down towards historic Saturna beach. It is a stunning landscape, one that still stops us in our tracks every single day. A place of unparalleled tranquility, virtually undisturbed by the sounds of the modern world, its population limited to raptors, wild goats and bees, along with sheep from our neighbour’s farm who get seasonal grazing privileges in return for providing weed control and fertilization.
When we are open for the season, sit on our terrace, sip our wines, and take deep breaths of the sea air. Feel what it’s like to actually step away from your daily concerns and surround yourself with nature’s beauty. Taste the terroir in our vintages and allow yourself to be transported.
