Grizzli Winery
Slated to open in Spring 2016, Grizzli Winery on Boucherie Rd. at Hudson in West Kelowna is a busy construction site in early fall. It represents an enormous investment in the Okanagan wine industry, estimated at $30 million to build a 60,000 sq. ft. (5575 sq. metre), Tuscany-style winery on the 11 acre site. According to plans, it will feature 4 spacious wine tasting rooms, a retail store, outdoor gardens and a picnic area, a 150 seat restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating, and ample parking for bus tours.
The investor is Taiwanese-born entrepreneur John Chang, who owns Lulu Island Winery in Richmond, BC, Canada’s largest exporter of Icewine to China.
