Quails’ Gate can trace its origins back to 1908, when the Stewart family first settled in Canada's Okanagan Valley, although the family planted vines for the first time in 1961, and the winery was founded in 1989. Since then, Quails’ Gate has become one of the leading producers of premium wines in British Columbia, and under current CEO Tony Stewart, the founding family remains committed to the winery. They are also committed to preserving their picturesque location with a demonstrable focus on sustainability and environmental stewardship by applying low-impact viticultural practices.

Environmental stewardship has always been one of the pillars at Quails Gate. I feel a personal responsibility to protect this land for future generations.“ Tony Stewart, Proprietor & CEO: The Stewart family has been farming in the Okanagan for over 100 years. With this history comes a sense of responsibility for stewarding the land and protecting its future. At Quails Gate, sustainability is a policy of continuous improvement and a philosophy of doing more with less. We cultivate a culture of innovation throughout our business practices, operations, and supply chain. This commitment has reduced our waste by nearly 50% since 2010.
