Frind Estate Winery

“Frind is a fine find. There are so many quintessential Okanagan memories to make here. Boat up from the lake to have a pizza picnic on the beach. Wine tours, tastings, weddings and special events. Sip wine and dine on a lakeside patio. Grab a coffee and gourmet baked after a hike, SUP Paddle, or bike ride. Kalvin is making some sweet oven pizza and Rhonda is serving up some tastings on weekends. I even did a brunch in the winter in the geo-domes. Food was amazing and the friends were fine.”

“We did this for my stagette and it was fabulous! Everyone loved the wine (even the non wine drinkers). The charcuterie board was delightful! The person who served us (I’m sorry I can’t remember his name!!) did a great job and was captivating as he described the history of the vineyard. Would highly recommend.”

“Very unique and amazing location! Right on the lake so location alone makes it worth visiting! Stunning views paired with excellent food and wine - sitting out on the patio while looking at the lake felt absolutely amazing! Welcoming, fast and very friendly and kind servers what made our dinner experience even better. We came for a dinner but ended eating just appetizer- charcuterie which was delicious and a lot so we couldn’t eat anything afterwards. Their house-made crackers were to die for so I asked for the recipe! We will definitely be back when visiting Kelowna again.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ TL;DR: Beautiful waterfront winery, great value tastings, and excellent wines. Relaxed vibe with an interesting story behind it. Such a lovely winery, and the only one right by the water, which makes it extra special. The setting is absolutely beautiful. 🍷 Wine They offer a $10 tasting for 5 wines, which is great value, and honestly all of them were good. The whites were outstanding, definitely the highlight for me. The dessert wine was also really good, and the reds were solid as well. Tip: always ask the server about purchase-only wines, those were some of the best options. 🍕 Food They have their own wood-fired pizzas, which you can enjoy by the water. You can also go to the domes for charcuterie boards and pairings, which is a nice experience. 🌿 Atmosphere and service The whole area is very beautiful and relaxing. Staff were very nice and not pushy at all, which made the experience even better. 📜 Story behind it The winery opened around 2020, and the owner is known for creating the Plenty of Fish dating app. After selling it, he decided to open this winery, which makes the place even more interesting. ✨ Final thoughts Great wines, great location, and a peaceful vibe. Definitely a place to relax and enjoy.”

“Frind Winery is a beautiful place to visit and relax. The wine samples were amazing, and it was a great way to try different varieties before choosing a favorite. One of the best parts is that there is a pizza shop right on-site, making it easy to enjoy some delicious food with your wine. The winery is located near the beach, which creates a perfect atmosphere to sit back, enjoy the views, and spend a relaxing afternoon. Great wine, good food, and a beautiful location—highly recommended if you’re visiting the area!”
