CedarCreek Estate Winery | Kelowna's Hidden Lakeside Gem

🏰 Architectural Wonder Meets Nature's Canvas Nestled along Okanagan Lake, CedarCreek stuns with its modern-rustic charm—think stone-and-wood tasting rooms framed by vineyard-covered slopes. While most 4-top tables sit slightly inland, snag a 2-seater patio spot for unobstructed views of: 🍁 Autumn foliage rolling down to sapphire waters ⛰️ Distant mountains dusted with early snow 🍷 Elevated Wine Pairing Experience We opted for the "Vineyard Lunch" ($65pp pre-tax): 2 artfully plated courses + 2 paired wines Customizable drinks (I swapped my first pour for a Rosé Gin Fizz - genius move!) Seasonal menu surprises (ditch the online sample - reality tastes better!) 🍽️ Food That Defied Expectations After skeptical scrolling through Xiaohongshu reviews, we were pleasantly shocked: 🔥 Standout Dish: Seared scallops with brown butter emulsion 🍂 Seasonal Star: Pumpkin agnolotti with sage brown butter "Maybe campus cafeterias lowered our standards... or this kitchen is legit underrated!" 📸 Pro Tips for Visitors Golden Hour Magic: 3-5PM light turns the lake to liquid gold Library Experience: For $85, taste rare vintages in their cellar Post-Brunch Stroll: Their lakeside trail is perfect for walking off wine 📍 CedarCreek Estate Winery 5445 Lakeshore Rd, Kelowna ⏰ Lunch seatings at 12PM/2PM (reserve ahead!) #SipTheView #OkanaganHiddenGems #WineWednesday
