Estates near Midway BC (57 Result(s))

Our winery is owned and operated by John and Maria Ferreira; both born in Portugal, immigrated to Canada with their families at a young age. We purchased this estate in 1979 as an orchard where we grew cherries, peaches and apples. Coming from a Portuguese heritage our passion of wine led us to convert our orchard into a vineyard after 20 years in production and packaging of fruit. The conversion of fruit to wine was done over a three-year period with the first merlot and chardonnay grapes being planted in 1999, additional varietals followed. Our landscape and fabulous soil have allowed for us to have optimal growing conditions for grapes. The Black Sage Bench is well-known for producing excellent quality grapes due to desert climate temperatures and desert terrain. These conditions allow for us to produce fabulous wines. Today our vineyard is in full production featuring varietals including Merlot, Chardonnay, Syrah, Viognier, Melbec and most recent Zinfandel and Petit Verdot.

Born and raised in Grand Forks, I have lived all around BC – and am more than happy to now call Christina Lake my home. Surrounded by my lifetime network of family, friends, and the natural beauty of this place; is real dream come true. To say I am grateful for everything would be an understatement, and I really understand the value of loving where you live – so much so, that I was inspired to become a Real Estate Agent. I have a background in healthcare and the hospitality industry, areas of work that I found highly fulfilling. A reputation as the friendly bartender is one that will live with me for a long time I am sure. However, being a REALTOR® means so much more to me than selling a property, it allows me share everything I love about this place with friends old and new. I know the history of this beautiful town, as well as its potential, and I can’t wait to help you make your next move out here & find your dream home!
