What a delightful stop! The winemaker is so welcoming and knowledgeable. He really made the tasting experience exceptional. The wine here also is exceptional! Finally a niagara trail winery focusing on dryer wine. That being said if you like sweet wine don't pass them up you would be surprised at how good the quality of the grape is you don't need to add sugar. They also have 2 "sweet" wines. Highly recommend you make it a point to visit. Update 1/17/2026 This place truly is as amazing and lovely as the first time I visted. The wines are the best in the region by far! As much as I want it to be under the radar, I also would love to see them just bursting at the seams too! The couple that runs this establishment are wonderful. This should be a dedicated stop when visiting the niagara wine region. Definitely not a place to miss!

A real hidden gem. We have visited a lot of wineries in the area, and this is our new favorite. On our first visit, we tried all of the red wines. We enjoyed the wine and the atmosphere so much we came back the next day and tried all of the white wines. It is clear that a lot of care and passion goes into this winery and it's wines.

Very unique wines. Keri is a very pleasant member of the staff. She is a wealth of information. She knows her stuff. The wines are excellent and different. This winery takes pride in their product. There is a big friendly dog to greet you at the door. You can sit at the table or the wine bar. All of the grapes are grown on the winery. The owner isn't afraid to try new combinations of grapes and tastes. He tries organic pest control on his 50 acres of grapes.

Delicious wines and very friendly staff. We were lucky enough to have the winemaker spend some time with us describing the wines and even though my boyfriend and I said we didn’t like cab franc, he talked us into trying what he made and my mind was blown by how good it could be. We left with several bottles. Highly recommend!!!! (Oh, they also had a very cute and friendly dog there that we loved. But, they were considerate enough to ask if the dog was bothering us, so don’t let that scare you off. But, for dog lovers it’s an extra bonus!)

I stopped by here with my wife and sister in law. It was the first time we had ever visited a winery. We had a wonderful visit! Jim the owner sat down with us and created a custom tasting based on our preferences. He was delightful and engaging and taught us a lot about winemaking. His knowledge of the Niagara climate and soils and how they contributed to the quality of the wines was outstanding. Even better was the quality of the wines themselves. We really enjoyed the Cabernet Franc and the Saperavi. I highly recommend this winery, it’s well worth the trip. Thank you again Jim!
