Okanagan Wine Country Restaurants

Like the California wine regions, Okanagan has attracted gourmands, and the restaurants reflect that. They also benefit from the amazing fruit harvest here. From summer to fall, every month reaps a harvest of different fruits, from cherries and plums to nectarines, peaches, and several varieties of apples.
