Reserve  your Tasting Experience

Moon Curser Vineyards is a boutique, family-owned winery on the East Bench of Osoyoos, BC, a South Okanagan border town known for its hot summers, lakeside fun and vineyards. Moon Curser has been in operation since 2004, when Chris and Beata Tolley purchased an old orchard in need of replanting, and set about converting it into what is now the Moon Curser Home Vineyard block, winery and tasting room.

Osoyoos, the border town where our winery is located, has long been celebrated for its rich soil and brilliant sunshine. But during the gold rush, it was the dark of night that brought commotion to the area.

Then, an unscrupulous procession of gold-smuggling miners returned stateside by the hundreds, if not by the thousands. All under the cover of night – trying to avoid customs agents at all cost. Often, the light of the moon would foil their plans, shedding light on their surreptitious travels and activities.

Need we say more about our name?

The Moon Curser wines, however, break from tradition – the winery’s focus has always been on making premium wines from old-world grape varieties not previously planted in the Okanagan such as Tannat, Dolcetto and Touriga Nacional. These varieties have not historically been a part of the South Okanagan viticulture, but thrive in the distinctive terroir of the Osoyoos East Bench and continue to deliver unique, world-class interpretations of these wines.

Moon Curser was recognized as the #1 Best Performing Small Winery at the 2019 WineAlign National Wine Awards of Canada.
