Born with wine in her blood, Pénélope counts six generations of viticulture and winemaking at Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion, the small family estate whose elegant wines rival the Crus Classés of Bordeaux. From oenology and viticulture studies in Bordeaux to winemaking in Spain, New Zealand and Australia, Pénélope brings to the Okanagan a profound and holistic understanding of the grapevine's relationship with its environment, from a winemaker's perspective. Pénélope is also a winegrowing consultant, and teaches viticulture at Okanagan College.

Dylan left North Vancouver in 2000 to work as a bicycle mechanic in Burgundy and suffered a conversion experience; a diploma in viticulture and winemaking in Beaune led to apprenticeships in the Côte d'Or, Chablis, and New Zealand. Five years in Bordeaux included teaching oenology and sensory evaluation classes at Château Lynch-Bages in Pauillac, and managing a small winery in Margaux. Dylan has been farming vineyards and making wine in the Okanagan Valley since 2011.

Oka is the newest member of the Roche Wines family household, she is a Berger Picard dog and loves to chew bones and the occasional vine clipping. When she's not chewing on a leaf or playing with her ball, she is running through the vineyard checking on the vines and taking care of Roche family members.

Emily moved from Vancouver to the Okanagan in 2018. Having worked in wine centred restaurants in Vancouver it was only natural to make the leap to wine. She completed WSET 3 and a certificate in Viticulture at Okanagan College. Emily has a passion for all things wine, from the vineyard through to the wine in bottle. Fun fact, Emily was an actor in film and television since the early 2000's!

Angie first caught the wine bug 15 years ago while visiting the Okanagan during the Summer Wine Festival. Since then she has relocated and has completed her WSET Level 3 and is currently working on her Italian Wine Scholar course through the Wine Scholar Guild. When she isn't working or studying about wine, she is running her own Interior Design company.
