Kismet Estate Winery

Why it stands out

Kismet Estate Winery is a family-owned Oliver winery rooted in the Dhaliwal family story, from farming traditions in Punjab to vineyards in the South Okanagan. The winery frames its name around fate and destiny, with labels and wine names that connect back to family, immigration, resilience, and cultural heritage.

What to expect on a visit

Kismet selects fruit from the top portion of the family vineyard holdings and combines estate wines with a food-forward visitor experience. Manzil Restaurant on the estate brings Indian cuisine, local ingredients, and wine pairings into the winery visit, making the stop stand out for guests who want food and culture alongside the tasting.

Tour planning notes

Kismet is a strong Oliver route stop when the itinerary needs a memorable food pairing angle or a family story with real depth. It is especially useful for groups who want a South Okanagan stop that feels different from a standard tasting-room sequence.
