Vineyards

“The life of any great wine begins in the vineyard”

Our winery family has grown to include more than 20 of Niagara-on-the-Lake’s most dedicated growers over the last 30 years

Ghost Creek Vineyard
Ghost Creek appears and draws out excess moisture from the vineyard.  Add the 20 year old Riesling vines, and this vineyard really is a special place.

Clark Farm
During harvest, viticultural students live on this vineyard site.  This long, narrow strip of unique clay holds the soils’ nutrients giving the red wines from this vineyard intense cherry, raspberry and strawberry flavours.

Carlton Vineyard
The free draining soil of this vineyard forces the roots to grow deep.  Deep rooted vines pick up more character from the earth and the stony soil captures and reflects the sun’s heat.  This combination gives us a more full-bodied complex red wines.

Winery “Backyard” Vineyard
Our own backyard is planted to Riesling and Cabernet Franc.  This vineyard receives the most attention from the winemaking team, as well as play host to guests while they enjoy tasting wine amongst its vines.
