Founded in 2018, Neon Eon Wines are made by Tyler Thrussell in Summerland, BC. In an effort to capture the spirit of the grape, these wines break from the heavy manipulation common in winemaking today and instead respect the fruit and the land it grows on. This spirit is born in the vineyard, raised in the cellar - by allowing the natural fermentation process to take place - and experienced in the glass. Transparency is also important. All neon eon wines are made using wither organic or biodynamic grapes and have no added yeasts, sulphur, enzymes, nutrients or any other inputs. There is nothing removed either, the wines should be stored with care - a good rule of thumb, if you’re uncomfortable in the environment the wine probably is too. This wine is alive. Enjoy. As with all our producers, we will be donating part of the proceeds from sales to a non-profit close to our heart. For our Neon Eon Wines, we have chosen to donate to the Black Youth Helpline. Please check them out.
