Sip & Anchor's "The Shorty" West Kelowna Sip Tour offers a four-hour journey across this rich wine landscape, delivering an immersive taste of the westside wine trail.

This curated tour touches four distinct wineries from a selection that includes classics such as Quails’ Gate, Mission Hill, and Mt Boucherie Estate, to intriguing spots like Volcanic Hills and Niche Wine Co. Each venue offers its own take on the terroir, showcasing wines rich with mineral-driven vibrancy and expressive fruit profiles. Guests appreciate the balance of boutique charm and estate sophistication along the route.
