Through their unique approach to winemaking, Nk'Mip Cellars brings Canadians back to their origin story - one steeped in Indigenous history and rooted in the land. Nk’Mip was originally founded by members of the Osoyoos Indian Band and Canadians can support local artists, acknowledge harvest traditions, and celebrate the season by giving a bottle from the Indigenous-owned winery this season. The brand offers a range of exceptional wine including the Nk’Mip Talon, the Nk’Mip Chardonnay, Nk’Mip White Mer’r’iym, Mer'r'iym 2019, and the Nk’Mip Red Mer’r’iym.
Nk’Mip is hosting a number of seasonal activities at the estate where wine and food enthusiasts can enjoy the best of what Nk’Mip has to offer. This includes Holiday Inspiration food and wine pairing (On weekends) that features four wines paired with holiday-inspired food bites. Fans can also attend the Winter Dinner Series (Dec 17th, February 11th) which features a welcome wine and a four-course menu with wine pairings created special for each event by Nk’mip’s chef. The winery is whimsically decorated for the occasion.
