Blackwood Lane Winery is proof that you can’t throw away tradition if you want to produce world-class wine. Carlos Lee, owner of Blackwood Lane, has an abiding love and respect for the traditional French winemaking practices, and the results are undeniable - love at first sip. But just how does Carlos create magic in a bottle? Quality over quantity.
The keyword is “handcrafted”. Blackwood Lane wines are made with well-grown BC grapes of the Okanagan Valley in the Oliver-Osoyoos area, fine French oak barrels and most importantly, time. Blackwood Lane red wines are aged at least three years before being released. This creates a smooth, well-integrated wine that offers layers of fine flavours and aromas. While the red wines can be cellared for many years, it’s not a necessity as Carlos releases them only when he feels they are ready to drink.
Blackwood Lane wines are deliciously fruit-forward with very fine tannins and are free of harsh chemicals or additives. Since there are no fining agents such as Isinglass and egg whites, our wines are also vegan! World-class wine for all!

Blackwood Lane Winery was the dream of Carlos Lee and that of his oenophile partners. Their goal was simple, to produce wines that lived up to their high standards and expectations. Their philosophy is summarized in the Company’s motto: “Bonus Vita et Bonus Amici” (Good Life and Good Friends).

The best place to have been this past Father’s Day was at Blackwood Lane enjoying the gorgeous sun-soaked patio surrounded by lush green fields and stunning views of Mount Baker--sipping some of the best wine in Canada, of course! Indeed, Blackwood Lane hosted the perfect patio party for the patriarch of the family as winemaker, Carlos Lee, celebrated Dad’s big day by offering a fabulous family wine tasting and cellar tour experience!
Throughout the day, families large and small, from near and far, arrived at Blackwood Lane and were treated to a special wine tasting. As the VIP moms and their families entered the winery, they were welcomed with a mouth-watering selection of gorgeous charcuterie that perfectly complimented the fine wines they were about to sample. They had the good fortune to sample the best wines in Canada, including Alliànce, and Blackwood Lane’s iconic The Referènce! Only the best for our Mothers!
