Our Story

It all started with a single vine and Major Hugh Fraser's vision. Fast forward a century and here we are, still sipping on stories.

At See Ya Later Ranch, it’s all about the perfect pour with a perfect view. Every sip comes with sweeping vineyard, valley and lake views—because great wine deserves a great backdrop.

Our Founder

Major Hugh Fraser

“See Ya Later” isn’t just our name—it’s part of our legend. Our founder, Major Hugh Fraser, famously ended his letters with this cheeky sign-off, skipping the goodbyes and leaving room for the next great conversation.

Our Winemaker

David Saysomsack

Our winemaker, David Saysomsack, has crafted wines across the globe—from Ontario and California to Washington State, Oregon, and even New Zealand. Now, he’s made See Ya Later Ranch his home, bringing his talent and passion to every bottle.

David’s story began in Laos and took root in Abbotsford, BC, where his hobbyist interest in winemaking grew into something much bigger. He followed his dream to Brock University, earning an honours degree in Oenology and Viticulture. Today, you can taste that dedication in every sip.

The Ranch is for everyone—paws included! Bring your four-legged bestie along to enjoy our Barking Lot, a dedicated space just for them. And that little golden dog with wings on our labels? That’s our toast to Major Fraser’s beloved pups—because every good doggo deserves their own legend.
