Mark and Tanya live by their philosophy of embracing life to the fullest. Their passions fuel their daily routines, from entertaining loved ones to creating inviting spaces where everyone feels at home. They're adventure-seekers, making memories with their family, often accompanied by their dogs on woodland walks. But above all, it’s the wine that truly brings everything together.
In 2018, they made a bold move to follow their dreams by purchasing a stunning 5-acre property right in the heart of Naramata Bench. With a lot of hard work and the help of many friends, they lovingly restored a custom-designed 1950s mid-century home, blending timeless design with modern touches. They also planted their own vineyard, growing the heart of what would become Modesta Winery.
Excitingly, the culmination of their hard work will come to life in the Spring of 2025, when Modesta Winery, located on the Modesta Vineyard, will officially open.
