If The Land Could Speak,

We are forever linked to the land we love and call home. Our sense of place expresses itself in everything we do. Nk’Mip Cellars is pleased to offer a wide range of fine wines inspired by the spectacular region we call home. One where long hot summer days are followed by cool nights. Where there is little rainfall and the winters are mild. Here, nature has created one of the world’s superior grape-growing regions. Our promise is to express the variety, intensity and irresistible lure of the land in every bottle of wine we produce.

QWAM QWMT
QWAM QWMT
We offer our premium table wines in a wide variety that invites exploration. Qwam Qwmt (pronounced kw-em kw-empt) in the Okanagan language spoken by the Osoyoos Indian Band translates to ‘achieving excellence’. This estate wine is produced in very limited quantities and is deemed worthy of this distinctive title. Sourced primarily from the finest grapes grown on the 40 year old Inkameep Vineyards.

Mer’r’iym
Mer’r’iym
Mer’r’iym is our word for “marriage” and the inspiration for a wine that represents the perfect union of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec. A joyful celebration of balance, texture, and length.
