***COVID-19 UPDATE MAY19TH 2020***

IN ORDER TO SAFELY OFFER TASTINGS AT BEAUFORT, WE MAY HAVE TO ADJUST SOME OF OUR POLICIES. WE ARE CURRENTLY OFFERING TASTINGS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. PLEASE USE OUR BOOKING FORM TO CREATE AN APPOINTMENT.

 

Do you have a tasting fee?

Yes. There is a $10 per person tasting fee at Beaufort. However, the $10 fee is waived when that individual purchases a bottle of wine. There is no tasting fee for Beaufort Wine Club members.

How can I find out what wines will be available for tasting on a given weekend?

We typically offer a tasting of 5 wines on tasting days, and the lineup changes each weekend. If you would like to know what wines we are tasting on a given weekend, you can call ahead (on Fridays): 250-338-1357.

Do you take reservations?

We offer tastings by appointment only for groups of 6 people maximum. Book your appointment here. We do not host private parties and functions.

Do you serve food at Beaufort?

We do not serve food at Beaufort. We do have some snack foods available for purchase in our wine store.

Do you have a lounge?

No. We do not have a lounge/lounge licence.

Are children allowed?

Yes. When accompanied by a parent or guardian, minors are allowed at Beaufort. Please do not leave children unattended. Beaufort is a working farm and winery and we prioritize the safety of all our guests.

Do you rent out winery spaces for private events/functions?

Thank you for thinking of us, but no; Beaufort does not rent out the tasting room or picnic area for private events/functions.

Can I vape/smoke at Beaufort?

No. Our entire property is smoke/vape free.

Can I bring my pet?

Only registered service or guide animals may enter the tasting room. If you have a small, well-behaved pet, you are welcome to keep them with you, on leash, on the deck or in the picnic area. Please pick up after your pet.

Are Beaufort wines suitable for vegans?

YES! We never use animal products or by-products in our winemaking.

Is Beaufort wheelchair accessible?

Door openings are 35.5″ minimum.  The carpark, picnic area, winery, tasting room and washrooms are all one level. There is one threshold at the main entrance (1.75″ rise).

Why don’t you ship to my province/country?

Despite the federal government’s move to eliminate all barriers to interprovincial alcohol shipping in June 2019, there is still work to be done at various provincial levels to fully reform Canada’s prohibition era liquor laws. You can find an up-to-date list of the provinces we do ship to here.

We’re sorry, but we do not have a licence to ship wine outside of Canada.

Do you offer winery tours?

We love to offer a winery tour as part of a regular tasting at no extra cost! As long as it’s safe to do so, and timing allows, we can include a tour of the winery as part of a tasting.
