History

Established in 1993.

Our name is a tribute to the splendour of our location — 1775 Naramata Road — on the spectacularly beautiful Naramata Bench in the Okanagan Valley — one of the premier and most popular wine regions in British Columbia.

Bench 1775 Winery was previously known as Soaring Eagle Estate Winery, operated by different ownership/​management producing wines under the Soaring Eagle brand. Bench 1775 Winery is now owned and operated by Paradise Ranch Wines Corp., which has historically produced only Icewines and Late Harvest wines under its Paradise Rach and Whistler brands.
