Recently retired from professional and national team volleyball, the pair set out to bring a mindset of creating community over food and wine to their new business. ‘Valley Commons’ pays tribute to the two valleys: the Okanagan and the Fraser that are home to the vineyards and winery with the tag line of “Where We Gather” front and centre of the brand.

Red Door Events

Stoneboat Pinot House is a heritage winery just off the prestigious Black Sage Road in the South Okanagan, acquired by the VGC in April 2021. It’s home vineyard, coined ‘The Gravelbar’ is an area of unique, extremely rocky subsoils that produce some of the best Pinot Noir's in the Okanagan. Boasting some of the oldest vines in the Valley, Stoneboat is best known for its amazing Pinot varietals and family-like hospitality.
