The broad glacial outwash plain east of Vancouver, more familiar for berry crops and dairy than viticulture. Cool, wet conditions limit grape variety selection to cold-hardy whites and pinot noir; a handful of estates work within these constraints with quiet conviction. Proximity to Metro Vancouver gives tasting room traffic that sustains small operations.
