Moon Curser Vineyards

Chris and Beata Tolley's estate on the Osoyoos East Bench, specialising in unusual varieties rarely grown in Canada: touriga nacional, tannat, carménère, tempranillo. Named for the moon curser — a smuggler's term for the moonlight that revealed contraband crossing the US border nearby.

Dead of Night (Touriga/Tannat blend) is unique in Canadian wine; Moon Curser brings genuine Iberian-variety ambition to the Okanagan desert context.
