“The heart and soul of all of our wines comes from the one-of-a-kind vineyards where we grow our grapes. It’s factors like the sun-soaked shale that our vines sink their roots into and convection currents from Lake Ontario that cool down hot summer nights, those are things that have the greatest impact on our wines. Celebrating that connection between the land and our wines is at the heart of everything in creating iconic wines
