The Home Block Restaurant at CedarCreek is everything you would expect from a fine dining experience and more. I had the pleasure of joining a VISA Infinite dinner last September and it was nothing short of exceptional and I can’t wait to return.
Everything is exquisite, the room, the wines, and the cuisine.
I continue to be amazed at the number of excellent dining establishments in BC Wine Country. The best the area has to offer in selection, freshness, and quality paired with outstanding wines.

“I believe winemaking is about translating a place and time into a wine – about capturing that unique combination of season and site and bottling it for people to enjoy. No two seasons are the same, and no two sites are the same, but through thoughtful viticulture and considerate winemaking,we craft wines that year after year show the tension, vibrancy, and life that is always present here in the Okanagan.”
