Get ready for a sparkling stop that delivers on flavour, fun, and a fabulously cheeky backstory.



A Past Full of Secrets


A playful welcome display at Dirty Laundry Vineyard featuring vintage-style laundry lines with cheeky signs and vineyard views in the background.

Dirty Laundry’s name is no gimmick. It’s inspired by the not-so-innocent past of Summerland’s original laundry business—one that, according to local lore, ran more than just clean sheets.


During the early 1900s, a Chinese laundry owner was said to be quietly operating a brothel and gambling parlour in the back rooms, hidden from plain sight. Locals called it “the dirty laundry,” and the name stuck.


Today, that story is proudly embraced, turning a local legend into a full-blown brand—cheeky, charming, and uniquely Okanagan.



Let’s Get Fizzical: A Sparkling Anthem

Expect a burst of ripe berries, citrus, and floral notes wrapped in fine, energetic bubbles. It’s bright, expressive, and perfect for summer days, celebratory toasts, or spontaneous dance parties on the patio.


Made in the charmat method, Let’s Get Fizzical is approachable yet full of flair—just like Dirty Laundry itself. Whether you’re a sparkling newbie or a seasoned fizz fanatic, this wine brings instant joy to the glass.
