La Frenz Winery

Why it stands out La Frenz Winery is a family-owned Naramata Bench winery known for estate-grown wines and a disciplined vineyard-first approach. The winery farms 62 acres across six vineyard sites: five on the Naramata Bench and one on the warmer Golden Mile near Oliver. ### What to expect on a visit La Frenz focuses on matching varieties and clones to specific sites, then hand-tending the vineyards to bring precise fruit into the cellar. The story reaches back to 1999, when Jeff and Niva Martin established Rattlesnake Vineyard along with the winery and wine shop. ### Tour planning notes La Frenz is a strong Naramata stop for guests who care about wine quality, vineyard detail, and estate farming more than big entertainment features. It fits well into routes built around serious tastings, especially for guests who like comparing different Naramata producers.
