Averill Creek was founded by owner Andy Johnston in 2001. Lured by its potential for Pinot Noir, Andy settled in Cowichan, planting a 30-acre vineyard on Mt Prevost. From that point, it became a wholehearted quest to unearth the true style and terroir of our region. In 2018, winemaker Brent Rowland joined us, originally from the area but having worked 19 international harvests at esteemed producers in California, New Zealand, Australia, and Niagara. Brent was acquiring the problem-solving skills needed to push the boundaries of New World regions, and ultimately came full circle to his home on Vancouver Island. Now with Andy’s 20+ years of insight into our vineyard, and a winemaker with a wealth of knowledge, our aim is to showcase what we do best here on Vancouver Island: vibrancy, texture, freshness and elegance. We do so with little intervention in the vineyard and the winery in order to create honest wines, and a clear segue from the vineyard to the glass.
