This wine is made from hand-selected (and picked) bunches from a couple different vineyards on the escarpment which are left late on the vine, into the early part of frost. But it is not an ice wine so it maintains it’s freshness—making it a nice alternative to a traditional dessert wine and is a perfect fit with sweet-tart raspberry pie.

Beautiful pink, fresh sparkling smelling of strawberries, stewed rhubarb, blood orange and biscotti. Bone dry with very fine bubbles, this traditional method sparkling made primarily from Pinot Noir is incredibly versatile--enjoy with almost any food or on its own. Was excellent with seared scallops and puy lentils. Great value for consistent quality in a non-vintage sparkler.

This wine is made from hand-picked grapes that come from only the top-tier, south facing vines on the Henry of Pelham vineyard, and only in exceptional years. The 2007 Pinot Noir is a bright garnet red, smelling of cherries and currants, supported by earthy, vanilla oak aromas. It's age is starting to show only slightly as the acids are still very present with luscious tannins. This is a wine that needs food to be really appreciated and it paired extremely well with a creamy risotto served with a red wine butter sauce.

This is a nice deep red wine that is juicy, with flavours of dark berries and fruits with aromas of spice and cut firewood. It is well structured but not too tannic or overly oaky- a great example of a successful Cab/Merlot blend from Ontario and perfectly timed for Canadian barbecue season. Enjoy this with any grilled red meat or my special blue cheese-stuffed burgers crusted with black peppercorns.

The rich, leathery fruit of this wine stood up well to the strong flavours of blue cheese at our pairing event, with the right amount of acidity you need to cut through cheese. Definitely needs some time to breathe, so open it up at least a half hour before enjoying. FUN FACT: This winery practices biodynamic farming and as part of that, they have spring lambs help with pruning extra shoots in the vineyard.
