About Priest Creek Family Estate Winery
Why it stands out Priest Creek Family Estate Winery is a South Kelowna Wine Trail estate founded by Darren and Jane Sawin after they purchased the vineyard in 2015. The winery grew from their wish to raise their children on a vineyard and return to farming roots, giving the property a family-first story. ### What to expect on a visit The name honours the history of the land, which was once part of a parcel farmed by the Mission in the mid-1800s. Priest Creek runs behind the property and into Mission Creek, connecting the winery's story to Father Pandosy and the early grape-growing history of the valley. ### Tour planning notes Priest Creek is a strong South Kelowna stop for guests who like family wineries, mountain vistas, and a local history angle. It works well on East or South Kelowna routes where the day should feel friendly, approachable, and rooted in the area rather than overly formal.
