Fort Berens Estate Winery bottled over 6,000 litres of wine last Tuesday, its first vintage fermented onsite. The wine was made using grapes sourced from the Okanagan in four varieties, two white and two red.
Several local volunteers helped Fort Berens proprietors Heleen Pannekoek and Rolf de Bruin and staff from Artus Bottling. Artus is a Naramata-based company with a complete mobile bottling line contained in a truck trailer.
