Centre Stage
Haywire Today
Haywire Winery is perched on a 10-acre property in Summerland, BC, called Switchback Vineyard. The winery building has a minimalist design that lets the exceptional wines take center stage. The striking concrete exterior features a bold graffiti mural created in 2020 by Vancouver artist Scott Sueme.
Inside, Haywire’s Tasting Lounge invites you to sit back and relax. With new tableside service, tastings are an unhurried, relaxing experience, offered in comfort year-round.

A Different Approach
Raised in Concrete
Concrete tanks are the perfect vessel for the style of wine we aim to make. The central Okanagan area is the ideal place for cool climate varieties such as pinot noir, gamay, pinot gris and chardonnay. We don’t rush the winemaking process using low intervention methods to create fruit-forward wines with a fuller textured mid-palate and a finish that goes on and on.
Rooted In Sustainability
As a team, we all place a high value on sustainability and land stewardship. Our Estate Vineyards are located in Summerland—Switchback Vineyard on the Haywire property, and Garnet Valley Ranch at the north end of town. Sustainability drives everything we do, from our decision to not use new oak in our winemaking to offering some of our sparkling wines in lightweight glass with a Stelvin closure.
