Little Farm Winery | Buy Wines Online in Canada

Little Farm is the hands-on operation of Rhys Pender, a Master of Wine, and Alishan Driediger.

They grow Chardonnay and Riesling at the Mulberry Tree Vineyard in Cawston, in the Similkameen Valley, and made their first wines in 2011. Production stays under a thousand cases a year, all single-vineyard, with as little intervention as they can get away with.

Every bottle ships straight from the winery.

The story behind Little Farm

Little Farm lives up to its name: a tiny organic vineyard in Cawston, in the Similkameen Valley just west of the Okanagan. Rhys Pender and Alishan Driediger bought the five-acre parcel in 2008 and planted it soon after.

Pender is a Master of Wine, one of only a small number in Canada, which makes this modest little farm a serious address.

Organic, mineral, hands-off

The estate has been farmed organically from the start and is certified organic. The winemaking is low-intervention, aimed at capturing the stony, mineral character of the Similkameen ground.

The focus is narrow and deliberate: dry, tightly wound Riesling and Chardonnay off the estate's Mulberry Tree Vineyard. Small in scale, precise in style.
