Zanatta Winery and Vinoteca Restaurant in the Cowichan Valley are part of a 120 acre farm. With 30 acres in vines, the remainder of the farm is in pasture, hay fields, forest and old fruit orchards. Using only the fruit from our own Glenora vineyards we are able to produce wines that truly reflect the character of Vancouver Island and of our particular site.

The vineyards at our winery enjoy a northern Mediterranean climate. Enjoy our balanced and unique wines with our delicious local cuisine in our bistro.

Visit British Columbia’s first estate cidery for an experience the whole family will enjoy.

Estate grown, sustainably farmed, small lot wines. Sit indoors or on the patio & enjoy seasonably inspired culturally diverse cuisine at Thistles Cafe overlooking the vineyard.
