Naramata, BC, March 7, 2024 – Hillside Winery is proud to announce the launch of its redesigned website, to mark the 40th anniversary of its vineyards. The website showcases not just Hillside’s legacy, but its connection to the region.
“We wanted to express the spirit of community and excellence here in Naramata Bench,” said Lauren Selfridge, Marketing & DTC Manager at Hillside Winery. “Not just the extraordinary terroir, but all aspects of this place where we have chosen to make wine.”
Developed in collaboration with digital marketing specialists 5forests, the new site embodies the spirit of Hillside and its journey through the decades.
Naramata Grown…And Raised
Since its foundation in 1984, Hillside Winery has embodied the spirit of the Naramata Bench and the British Columbia territory. The focus has been on marrying traditional methods with terroir-focused viticulture, resulting in award-winning wines that reflect this unique place.
“We are proud to launch our new website in partnership with 5forests, as we celebrate 40 years of passion for winemaking,” said Selfridge. “This collaboration has allowed us to showcase our journey, our wines, and our dedication to the Naramata Bench in a way that resonates with today’s digital audience.”
“Working with Hillside Winery on their new website has been an absolute joy for 5forests,” said Polly Hammond, Founder, 5forests. “Michael Bourne, our VP of Engineering, grew up right around the corner from Hillside!”
She says that Michael’s roots in the region has enabled the team to reflect Hillside from the roots up.
“Hillside is a leader in the British Columbia wine industry and we were mindful of the entire region throughout the process,” Hammond went on.
Celebrating a Rich History and a Bright Future
The launch of the new website also serves as a tribute to Hillside’s founders, Bohumir and Vera Klokocka, whose vision and perseverance have left an indelible mark on the BC wine industry. From its early days as an apricot orchard to becoming a pioneering force in the Farmgate Winery Policy, Hillside’s history is a story of dreams realized and a community forged in the love of winemaking.
Innovative Winemaking and Sustainable Practices
A key focus of the new website is Hillside’s winemaking philosophy and sustainable practices, underscoring the belief that great wines are born in the vineyard. Hillside employs meticulous vineyard management and the winery’s dedication to sustainability is evident in its pursuit of Sustainable Winegrowing BC certification, reflecting a commitment to environmental stewardship, biodiversity, and climate action.
Farm to Table and Biodiversity
This connection to the land extends beyond the vineyards. The winery’s bistro champions a farm-to-table philosophy, showcasing local, sustainable, and seasonal ingredients that highlight the bounty of the Okanagan Valley. Furthermore, Hillside’s vibrant ecosystem, teeming with wildlife and native plants, plays a crucial role in the quality of its wines and the health of the local environment.
As Hillside Winery embarks on the next 40 years, the new website invites wine enthusiasts and newcomers alike to explore its story, its wines, and its commitment to the Naramata Bench. Join us in celebrating this significant milestone and the continued pursuit of winemaking excellence.
