We had a pleasant time here at the Indigenous World Winery. The staff were all so nice and the wine was really good. The tastings were $5 / person but waved if you get a bottle of wine / person. That wasn't a hard thing to do, we loved the Chardonnay and the Syrah they had on the tasting menu. They also let us try their Gin and Vodka that they're making and it's delicious! Definitely will come back when they have their distillery tasting room open!

Beautiful winery with amazing wines. The food at the restaurant is delicious. Every staff member is so friendly and welcoming. On my most recent visit, Steve hosted a tasting for myself and five friends who had never been to a tasting before. Steve was happy to explain all of the wines and processes while being very personable and interacting with each member of our group. This is definitely my favourite winery and it's amazing to be able to support indigenous business at the same time. Thanks for all you do!

This place is absolutely wonderful!
I would highly recommend to anyone looking for great wine, great location, and a great price point. Not to mention the service - Shelly and Steve are so kind and friendly, they made our experience so much more entertaining and memorable. I really appreciate an establishment that are knowledgeable of the wine, and enjoy telling you about it.
I will (and already do) recommend Indigenous.
It is by far my favourite winery in the valley! - and I do love my vino!
Thank you again we will 100% be back.

We noticed there were only a couple of vehicles in the parking lot but decided to try it anyway. It turned out that we were the only ones there. On a positive note, the Chardonnay was very good and the gift area had some nice merchandise. The person doing the tasting did not seem that interested in serving us so we just had a glass of wine rather than the tasting. We ordered our wine and there was nowhere to sit either inside or outside. The outside patio was all torn up with an uprooted tree on it and roped off and closed for seating. We were told we could set up a table and chairs ourselves (which were all stacked and hadn't been used or cleaned since I don't know when) on the other patio deck. That patio desk was also a mess ! At the very least, they could have offered to help with the chairs/table. Although I realize it may be a bit 'off' season they do advertise themselves as Open All Year ! Skip this one, there are many better ones.

It was okay. There was maybe a handful of people and we waited at the counter until someone came from the back to help. The man who conducted the tasting for us was kinda rude and made a couple poor comments on French people and younger generations who have different tastes which should not be comments you make to visitors/comments. The wines were alright.

We came to do a wine tasting at 5:30. The website and the sign outside said the tasting room was open until 6pm. The worker in the shops refused to serve us, saying the her last tasting is supposed to be 5:15 and when we told her that her website said different she challenged us and asked us how many wineries we had been. She then said she was uncomfortable to serve us. We were in no way drunk or rude, purely trying to clarify what the website and sign said differently. Very disappointing as we have enjoyed purchasing many wines on our trip so far. Very poor customer service.

We had a wonderful time tasting the wines and spirits at Indigenous World. The staff is super knowledgeable and had a lot to tell us about the company and the wide variety of products. They have nice wines and Canadian whiskey with awesome bottle designs and definitely some options to please anyone. We enjoyed a glass on the patio overlooking Okanaga Lake and Kelowna and had an amazing time. Totally worth visiting!!!

I was surprised at this little winery tucked into Kelowna. Small place but a great spot to stop. We were informed how best to taste wine, how to hold the glass properly and lots of details about their grapes and location. Well worth the stop

A nice collection of wines at fair prices. The patio was very nice and staff very pleasant. Currently most wine comes from other farms - will be interesting to see improvement as they begin to own more of their own vineyards.

We had the pleaure of visiting Sept 2017 leaving with a case 12 bottles of wine. we still have 1 bottle of chardonnay which is being saved for an extreme occasion. What would the cost per bottle of the white or the menu so we can have it sent to us in Edmonton?
