About Lakeside Cellars
Why it stands out
Lakeside Cellars is perched on the eastern shore of Lake Osoyoos on a historic agricultural property tied to the old Haynes Homestead and early Osoyoos orchard history. The Dhaliwal family purchased the lakeshore site in 2016, adding it to a long family commitment to farming and viticulture.
What to expect on a visit
The property includes old-vine Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc planted in 1998, with the winery drawing on both lakeside history and South Okanagan fruit. The family story includes vineyard work on the Golden Mile, Osoyoos, and Testalinden Creek, with Ricky Dhaliwal managing vineyards and cellar work.
Tour planning notes
Lakeside Cellars is a strong Osoyoos route stop for guests who want lake views, family farming history, and a sense of place. It is useful when the itinerary should feel scenic and personal rather than only focused on big red-wine tasting rooms.
