The BC Wine Museum & VQA Wine Shop: Historic Laurel Packinghouse’s Hidden Gem

Dona Sturmanis · February 27, 2014 ·

The bright and spacious BC Wine Museum & VQA Wine Shop are located in Kelowna’s Cultural District. It’s the perfect spot to bring your visiting company this spring. While you visit and leisurely stroll amongst the shelves, you can sip BC’s best. You can also enjoy the self-guided tour of the BC Wine Museum, take a look back at the industry’s history in the province, and see how far we’ve come and where we are poised to go in the future.


Never tasted wine before? Not sure on the proper technique? No problem! The staff at the BC Wine Museum &VQA Wine Shop take the pretentiousness out of wine tasting. Wine Shop coordinator Andrea Taylor says, “We are much more than your average wine shop; we also serve as a resource for learning and we love having company. Visit our shop and see what fun the wine buying experience can be.”
Join the staff at the BC Wine Museum & VQA Wine Shop on the first Thursday of every month for its Neighbourhood Nosh. From 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., they welcome a different winery to share their story and pour wines. I

t is an open house concept, so it’s the perfect after-work activity and your chance to discover one of our fantastic Okanagan wineries.
If you are looking for that hard-to-find wine that they are long sold out of at the winery, chances are you’ll find it at the BC Wine Museum & VQA Wine Shop. Browse downtown Kelowna’s best selection of VQA wines and you will always find something unexpected. Whether it’s wine for the weekend or that weekday wine you are picking up on your way home, the BC Wine Museum & VQA Wine Shop has something for every taste and budget.
