To Ewe Wines

100% Organic Fruit. To Ewe wines are made from Corlan Vineyard’s estate-grown certified 100% organic grapes and blackberries.

No Sulphites. Corlan Vineyard advise enjoying all but the Blackberry within 36 hours of opening as they do not add sulphites during racking and bottling.

Two Ewe wines are made in small batches for ultimate aging and mellowing (they only produce about 500 cases per year) and the Reds are aged in natural oak barrels for better mellowing.

Vegan. Some wineries use non-vegan filtering or clearing practices. Corlan Vineyard cold-stabilizes its white wines and uses racking as their clearing tool.

Sustainable Practices. Corlan Vineyard purposely do not irrigate their vines and use sheep to graze the weeds between the rows.

“We don’t irrigate so we get the fruit smaller,” says Pat. “We don’t get the tonnage that we could get if we had larger fruit but we think we get more flavour.”

“No water because that just dilutes the fruit,” says Selwyn. “So it’s very concentrated and when you taste the Marechal Foch yourself you’ll find that it’s a very heavy bodied, full-bodied wine and you know it’s a damned good wine.”

Customer Comments

“This place is a must go for anyone staying on Denman island. There is wine tasting on the farm, and all the wines we tried were delicious! The blackberry wine was our favorite, though – we couldn’t leave without a bottle, I highly recommend trying it!
Pat was extremely friendly, it was such a pleasure to communicate with her. We had a wonderful time sitting in her garden with wine and snacks. If we ever visit Denman again, we’ll definitely return here.” ~ Sofia P. August 2018
