8th Generation Winery

The 8th Generation Winery is a family-owned and operated winery located in the Okanagan Valley, where Bernd and Stefanie Schales have been making wines since 2003. With a rich history dating back to 1783, the winery's tradition meets an open-minded view forward, with a focus on quality above quantity. The winemakers adhere to sustainable vineyard practices, using 100% BC fruit exclusively in their BC land-based winery, and avoiding wine treatment products to preserve the natural characteristics of the grapes. Their goal is to produce wines that are clean, precise, and true to the terroir. The winery's tasting room has been recognized as one of the best in the region, winning the "Best Ranked Tasting Room" award in 2025. Visitors can enjoy a wine-tasting experience and explore the vineyards, which help preserve the unique agricultural land in the Okanagan Valley. The winery offers a Lineage Wine Club for enthusiasts to access limited availability wines, with benefits including first option privileges on new releases and discounted shipping.
