SpierHead Winery

SpierHead Winery, now branded as SpearHead Winery, is a small-lot producer on Spiers Road in southeast Kelowna, in the Okanagan Valley. The winery has earned a strong reputation for focused, terroir-driven wines, specializing in Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and aromatic whites, and was recognized as Best Performing Winery and Winery of the Year in 2024, a marker of how seriously its small-production approach is taken. The lineup is organized around current releases and limited bottlings, with large-format and gift options available, and members of the wine club gain priority and exclusive access to the more sought-after wines. For visitors, the tasting room is open daily, generally from late morning through the afternoon, with extended summer hours that keep the doors open into the evening on weekends from June through August, making it an easy late-day stop on a Kelowna wine tour. Reservations are recommended but not required, and the winery also hosts private events, from birthday gatherings to corporate functions, in its setting among the vines. The southeast Kelowna bench has become one of the Okanagan's quietly serious wine neighbourhoods, and SpierHead's emphasis on cool-climate Burgundian varieties fits that character well, rewarding visitors who want to taste through a tightly edited range rather than a sprawling catalogue. The surrounding landscape of vineyard slopes and orchard country adds to the appeal, and the winery's location keeps it within easy reach of central Kelowna and the rest of the valley's wine route. Visitors planning a stop should check the winery's current website for hours, which shift between the regular and summer seasons, and to confirm reservation details for tastings or any private event they may be considering.
