Three Sisters Winery — Attraction in Penticton

We went here as part of a wine tour and after going to a few wineries before this one and a few after, we just didn’t enjoy our experience here. From the moment we walked in it wasn’t very welcoming. The lady who poured our wine, didn’t say her name but she had short black hair and glasses, was very rude and seemed inconvenienced that we were there. She got upset when we tried to ask questions about the history of the winery and said “she’d get to it later” (then didn’t) and kept huffing and sighing throughout, and had made a few comments with a rude tone. We were trying to look at the clothes and decor and she told us not to look around until after, and she said it loudly and angrily. So we couldn’t really talk or look around while there, it was uncomfortable for everyone. It really seemed like she didn’t want to be there, didn’t want to talk to any of us and didn’t make any effort to be sociable or kind. I will say, near the end it seemed like she realized that she had a bad attitude because she started explaining a few wines to us and making a little effort but wish she had just been more welcoming and kind from the start. Maybe not the...

Went there today with a group of 7 of us. We were super excited to come here, as it was recommended by a friend and we loved the name. Going in, the space is super cute. Unfortunately after that things went downhill. Our server (didn’t get her name, but was younger with short black hair), appeared to be inconvenienced by our presence. We asked to be served outside and her response was “it might rain, and it will be a lot of work to come back inside”. For the record, it did not rain. She didn’t distribute the glasses according to the group and told us “if you are missing a glass here its at the other table and you can go get it” so I went and got my glass. Her pours were basically sloshing liquid into the glasses as quickly as possible. She didn’t bring us a spatoon. When we got to the reds she seemed to perk up and smile a bit more.

It’s unfortunate because all of the other wineries we visited on our tour, our group purchased a minimum of a case or more. We left Three Sisters and just one bottle.

A wine tasting should be a enjoyable experience and the server is a big part of the experience.

This was our only negative...

Okay, first off, loved the wines. But what really blew my mind was while we were in the winery, the front tire of my bike popped (I think I forgot to bleed some of the air out from more temperate times) and Marina, one of the sisters (the one who creates the art in the winery and her own cool clothes and stuff) volunteered to lend me her fricken bike so that I could A) go to our next and final winery on our tour and B) make it back to penticton. So she quickly drove to her house, picked up her bike, drove it back to the winery, and let me borrow it until I could come back and pick up my bike. Isn’t that insane? Honestly, NEXT LEVEL hospitality. I won’t forget that, so thanks...
