Gabriola Island, nestled along the east coast of Vancouver Island, enjoys the refreshing embrace of the cool ocean breeze and the warmth of the pacific sun. This tranquil and invigorating atmosphere creates a wonderful place to relax and a perfect environment for growing fruit. Known as the “Isle of the Arts”, Gabriola has a vibrant community of artists, artisans, and craft food/drink producers. As one of the island’s only agritourism destinations, Ravenskill Orchard/Gabbie’s Cider has taken full advantage of Gabriola Island’s wonder. In 2005, this 27 acre property was entirely covered in forest. A portion of the property was cleared, and in 2007 the “modern farmhouse” 3 bedroom estate house was constructed. A 5 acre orchard, known as Ravenskill Orchard, was planted. Then, in 2013 the “cidery” cedar barn was built and Gabbie’s Cider began producing on the island. Gabbie’s Cider produces premium, dry ciders from apples grown in the orchard and apples purchased from the Okanagan. Produced on the property, their ciders are “ciders for wine drinkers” and have low residual sugar and well-balanced flavour. They produce 8 varieties including Purple Sage, Citus-Hopped Cider, Groovin’ Granny Smith, Real Dry, and Batch 1018 Vintage Cider. The 2,600 square foot home is a spectacular example of a modern farmhouse. The home has vaulted ceilings throughout, concrete acid-stained floors on the main floors and arbutus hardwood floors upstairs. The large country kitchen has professional grade stainless steel appliances and a big kitchen island. There is a gas fireplace on the main floor with a fireplace roughed in for the upstairs. The master bedroom ensuite has a jetted soaker tub and double walk-in rain shower. The home is finished with beautiful metal siding exterior painted a deep mauve, reflecting traditional farm styling. The “cidery” barn is a classic, iconic, cedar barn with concrete aprons and an entrance garden. The barn has a 288 square foot indoor tasting/retail area for farmgate sales. The production facilities, home to a sizeable walk-in fridge and all production tanks total 1,700 square feet. The barn has an adjacent tasting patio under a large tent with lights. Charcuterie is served to guests along with Gabbie’s refreshing ciders. Gabbie’s Cider is a pivotal part of the Gabriola Island community. Along with farm cider sales and keg sales to local restaurants, Gabbie’s hosts fresh juice sales in September/October, seasonal U-Pick/We-Pick apple sales, apple pie sales, sells locally crafted products in the shop, has a patio events program including their “working folk cider hours”, cider and cheesemaking classes, and around 8 to 10 live music events during the summer. They also participate in local community events including the Salmon BBQ, Cultivate, and Farm to Table. The Ravenskill Orchard property is surrounded by lush forest. Backing onto a regional park, the property has direct access to over 1,000 acres of wonderful forest trails. Mountain bikers and hikers alike travel to Gabriola for its’ trails, stopping by Gabbie’s for a delicious cider treat. The opportunity to acquire this one-of-a-kind property includes the property, cider production equipment, Gabbie’s Cider brand, Ravenskill Orchard brand, and fully staffed business. With frequent ferry service daily to Nanaimo, this spectacular property offers the opportunity to operate an agricultural business in the idyllic Gulf Islands and further grow Gabbie’s as a major agritourism destination on Gabriola Island.

Averill Creek Vineyards offers a turnkey winery operation amidst the breathtaking North Cowichan scenery. The winery’s state of the art building was designed by Architect Vasko Pavlov with a unique gravity flow design. Perched above the vineyards, the stunning building blends seamlessly into the riparian landscape. This reputable winery business includes a 45 acre property with 30 acres of planted vineyard, the 8,300 square foot production building/tasting room, and an 11 acre leased vineyard. The vineyards are planted with Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, Marechal Foch, Cabernet Foch, Merlot, and Pinot Grigio. They are located 12 km from the ocean on the gentle slopes of Mount Prevost, surrounded by old-growth forest. The winery is situated on Royston-Qualicum soil: a blend of glacial stone, clay, and old-growth organics, which allows sufficient drainage and root penetration. Averill Creek primarily dry-farms with a focus on biodynamic, regenerative, and organic principles. Located within the Sonomos region of the Cowichan Valley Geographical Indication, Averill Creek is known for its exceptional quality, minimal intervention wines. Their wine is served by the glass at five of Vancouver’s Michelin star restaurants. Their wine lineup ranges from their popular “Joue” table-wine collection to their trademarked Charme de l’ile sparkling wine to their notable reserve Pinot Noir. Averill Creek’s winemaking approach is one of pragmatism. Being in a cool climate, they aim to demonstrate the inherent elegance, texture, perfume and refreshing quality of their wines. They often employ techniques such as foot-stomping, skin contact, whole-bunch fermentation, pigeage, and lees ageing to enhance these characteristics. Beginning with the 2018 vintage, with the arrival of current Winemaker, Brent Rowland, their wines are wild fermented. No enzymes or nutrients are added, and little to no sulphur is added. Most wines are unfined and unfiltered. The winery is situated in Canada’s only Maritime-Mediterranean climate. Consistent warm, dry summer days ensure phenolic ripeness, while coastal influence and overall latitude equate to persistent acid and freshness in the fruit. Soil profile varies throughout the Valley, and can consist of glacial sand, glacial stone, clay and loam. Given the relative infancy of the region, soils are fairly pristine and many producers are committed to preserving the region by farming sustainably. Averill Creek Vineyards offers a wine enthusiast and aspiring entrepreneur the opportunity to own a notable winery in this exceptional and increasingly-recognized wine region. Please reach out to the listing agents for a tour. We respectfully ask that you do not solicit, approach staff, or reach out to the business owner directly in regards to the winery sale.
