History
Practices & Techniques
When we opened our first little store in 2010, we had a few different wines available, including 2 reds, a rose, and 2 whites. As the years went by, Alan's skills as a winemaker got better and better, and with the first bountiful crop of 2010, he won his first 4 National Medals in the 2011 Canadian Wine Awards.
In September of 2013 an extension was put on the building which included the new winery, a cold room, washing area, and new store and tasting area!
By 2015, at the 10 year mark for the vineyard and 5 years with the store open, we present 16 different brands of wines, with 19 medals including 5 Gold, 4 Silver, and 10 Bronze.
