Moon Curser Vineyards

Moon Curser Vineyards The Moon Curser name pays tribute to the gold smuggling history of Osoyoos.

Moon Curser Vineyards, named Best Performing Small Winery in Canada at the 2019 National Wine Awards, is a family-owned winery located on the East Bench of Osoyoos. Moon Curser Vineyards is a boutique, family-owned winery on the East Bench of Osoyoos, BC, a South Okanagan border town known for its hot summers, lakeside fun and vineyards. Moon Curser has been in operation since 2004, when Chris and

Beata Tolley purchased an old orchard in need of replanting, and set about converting it into what is now the Moon Curser Home Vineyard block, winery and tasting room. The Moon Curser wines, however, break from tradition – the winery’s focus has always been on making premium wines from old-world grape varieties not previously planted in the Okanagan such as Tannat, Dolcetto and Touriga Nacional. These varieties have not historically been a part of the South Okanagan viticulture, but thrive in the distinctive terroir of the Osoyoos East Bench and continue to deliver unique, world class interpretations of these wines. Moon Curser was recognized as #1 Best Performing Small Winery at the 2019 WineAlign National Wine Awards of Canada.

A rare sight in the Okanagan, this unoaked, juicy red wine remains true to its Italian origins and will be sure to charm with its vibrant flavours of blood orange, clove and berries.
PRICE: $30.99 +tax/dep

Viognier 2025
A sure crowd-pleaser, our 2025 Viognier is the perfect summer wine: stone fruits, quince and subtle white floral notes with a crisp minerality, fresh acidity and a generous palate.

📦FREE SHIPPING on 6+ bottles of Moon Curser wines.

ENDS Mon. June 1 at 11:59pm🌚

—————
Diversion 2024
This brand-new wine is a blend of Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon that was created as a diversion from what we Moon Curser’s normally do. A diversion from typical Bordeaux blends. Nothing to see here!
PRICE: $38.99 +tax/dep

Marsanne 2025 (Wine Club Exclusive)
Rarely seen on its own, the 2025 Marsanne is a complex and rich wine built to change over time. Full-bodied with a lush viscous texture, yet notes of delicate orange blossom and pavlova.
PRICE: $26.99 tax/dep

Cabernet Sauvignon - Confiscated 2024
Made in Osoyoos, from premium Washington grown grapes along the East bank of the Columbia River, just 2 hours south of Moon Curser. A world-renowned variety: this dense, bold, varietally true Cabernet Sauvignon leans into ripeness and complexity. Think stewed black fruits, baking spice, and leather. One to confiscate into your cellar!
PRICE: $46.99 +tax/dep

Pinot Noir - Confiscated 2024
Made in Osoyoos, from premium Washington grown grapes on the southern shore of Lake Chelan, just 2 hours south of Moon Curser. This medium-light bodied Pinot Noir has notes of red and dark fruit layered with perfumed florals. Graceful, elegant, refined—yet dangerously close to being confiscated.
PRICE: $34.99 +tax/dep

Today is !!

The perfect wine holiday where anything goes! Just find a bottle of your favorite winery, grape variety, or style, and enjoy.

It’s a great day to celebrate the many rare varieties Moon Curser grows that don’t have their own “wine day”, like our Dolcetto (it’s finally back!), Touriga Nacional, Roussanne and Marsanne.

When you walk outside and just want to dance!!! 💃 🕺 And whistle along with our vineyard crew!

Our vineyard crew were busy last week putting the lowest wire on our vineyards back in place.

Background: One of the wires gets laid down on the ground to start the season to make work easier and to not get in the way of early growth. Getting it back in place and tucking the shoots under the first wire at this stage helps so tractors can drive through the rows without causing damage and to help decrease the likelihood of vine damage from the wind. It also helps to give the vine some stability to grow upright towards the sunlight.

Smuggler’s are known for walking…

There’s an upcoming walk this weekend that the is hosting that we suspect may include some talk of the gold smugglin’ days in Osoyoos. We love Osoyoos Museum, they’re worth checking out anytime but it’s also BCMuseums Week this week so they have lots going on!

Also the Osoyoos Mural Walk has launched to showcase the 23 murals we have in Osoyoos! It’s a new self guided walk you can do anytime (May 15-Sept 20, 2026 to win prizes). Visit osoyoosartscouncil.com/mural-walk for all the details!
