About Us

Observatory Wines and Villa looks east over Okanagan Lake at 400 meters of elevation. Views north to Peachland, east to Okanagan Mountain and south to Naramata.

This is the place to experience the views, arts and lifestyles while having wine as the catalyst. Please come and stay, slow down and appreciate different forms of artistic creation.

As of May 1st Summerland Estate Winery has transformed into the new home of Observatory Wines, a creation from Blair Gillingham. There are stories to be told, and more to be made.
