Venturi-Schulze Vineyards

All our vines are on their own roots. Our original 5 acres are virus-free and all the vines for the 15 acre expansion were propagated using the latest tissue culture technology to guarantee freedom from a myriad of diseases known to infect grape vines in North America. Vancouver Island remains one of the few phylloxera-free winegrowing regions in the world.

We have several viticulture research projects in progress and do not allow anyone to enter the vineyards without us, as precautions must be taken to isolate our site from possible sources of contamination. We ask all visitors to call well in advance so we can arrange to meet them at the house.
