T H E W I N E RY Our CedarCreek story begins with Senator Ross Fitzpatrick. Born and raised in the Okanagan, in the 1940s and ‘50s he worked with his father at MacLean & Fitzpatrick, a fruit packing and shipping decades later, he returned to this valley, purchased his t vineyard, and quickly became a pioneer in the planting of European vinifera grapes needed to produce award-winning, premium wines. Today, because of thoughtful planting decisions made in the early 1990s, CedarCreek has 30-year-old vines at the heart of everything we do. We are rooted to this land, committed to authenticity, and writing our next chapters, with estate-grown, organic wines, vineyard-to- table cuisine, and farmhouse-modern architecture. Weddings at CedarCreek r love for this place, our passion for Okanagan wines, and our legacy of hosting family, friends, and special events, with clearly Canadian hospitality. CedarCreek Wedding
