42 Best Wineries near Lincoln

“What an incredible experience at Villa Romana!!! The wines were the best we’ve tasted across many wineries in NOTL and Grimsby. Getting to meet and chat with the owner Ugo and his assistant Melissa was so special. We learned about all his passions (wine, fishing, painting) and his children and his life story - the highlight of our day.Absolutely recommend stopping here, you won’t regret it!“

“Jenny and I go once a year to the Balls Fall Festival and we always come to The Good Earth for a late lunch on the way to the cottage. We honestly cannot say enought about the ambiance, the food, and of course Melanie who we always look forward to seeing. Jenny (our daughter) has always said she wants to get married at The Good Earth and we cannot wait for that day. All the best to you. Best restaurant anywhere. Jenny and Linda Dawkins“

“Fantastic winery! We loved the bubbly wines. The rose is the best rose I've had and the Meritage and Cabernet Sauvignon were excellent! The owners are fantastic and explain the wines and climate impact on the taste. Would highly recommend.“

“Amazing experience . I would recommend the 5 courses tasting . It was out of its world .“

“Nice hidden gem, good wines and a beautiful location.“

“Enjoyed a lovely afternoon in the gardens when they put on a Rosé event.“

“I’ve never been a butter tart fan - BUT that has changed forever (if they’re from 13th Street’s Bakery) I picked up a couple pecan nut butter tarts and raspberry & Coconut butter tarts!! Wow I’m in love from the flaky pastry to the Devine filling💕💕💕💕. Oh and their breads - definitely worth a visit. We will back very soon. Thank You🌸 PS - They deliver too 🙌“

“One of the best winery in the area. The patio has great ambience and the wine is full bodied. Awesome burger and fries made fresh to order. Sometimes I add the portobello mushroom to the burger, and hopefully one day they name it after me :)“

“Stopped here for the first time yesterday morning. My knowledge of wine is there is red, white, and pink... so I feel intimidated walking into wineries. Not Flat Rock! The crew at the door as we walked in were very cool and very down-to-earth making the experience relaxing, enjoyable and somewhat educational without feeling judged! Here's where it gets even better. My wife sorts out what flight she wants and when it came my turn I said I didn't really know, I'm more of a beer drinker! "We have beer"! We have choices from Shawn & Ed Brewing Co. in Dundas (LagerShed Original is very good). This was the icing on the cake, now they had 2 very happy visitors. Thank you for a great experience, the location is quite stunning. My wife, Les really enjoys your wines and the beer rolled you to the top of the visit list when we're back in the area.“

“Beautiful scenery 👌 as shown by my friend who visited. I will see it by myself next summer!“

“We had the best experience visiting Organized Crime today for a tasting. We had Jill help us out and she was so amazing - stayed and talked us through everything, we learned so much about the wine and winery. It truly was an amazing experience because of Jill. The wine was also amazing, which was only expected because of the many awards they have won. Organized Crime has won itself as one of my favourite wineries now, and I would highly recommend the visit!“

“Was here over the weekend. This was one of the most pleasant experiences I have had at a winery ever. All the wine is great! The food was excellent. We had the flat bread pizza and the cheese plate. The owner and his wife both came out to introduce themselves, sit with us, ask about us and talk about the wines. Very very personable. June who was our hostess was absolutely amazing and if you get her, you will leave happy. I can’t rave about this enough and already looking forward to going back. This was a winery where you get your tastings and the vibe is to relax. Enjoy the wine. Enjoy the company. Not get in. Stay for 30mins with your only 4 tastings then leave so next group can come in.“

“I was meant to do this a few weeks ago. Went into Magnotta to get a few bottles. Talk to a nice man. Did a tasting with him where he talked about the winery and he talked about food that will complement the wine. We purchased a Chardonnay to have with our pork chop with apple chutney which the gentlemen gave us a recipe for. As well the store looked great as well he walked us into a room where we could see the production area in the distance. Strongly recommend coming to this this location staff looked very helpful and knowledgeable when talking to I think his name was Andrew as well talked to a Scott and Megan. Very inviting when people seem genuine to help. Even when we wanted to grab a bite to eat because we haven't had lunch yet gave use some ideas. Will be back next time we are in town. Oh we had the pork chops with recipe it was very good..“

“Such a wonder gem. Highly recommended“

“Visited this winery today, recommended by a friend. Matt the winemaker did our tasting and was a great host and gave us a great education regarding the winerys philosophy and processes. The winery makes chardonnay and pinot noir wines, everything we tried was delicious! Highly recommend, thanks Matt! Rose and Susan“

“A nice winery. I like the viognier best. Honest owners on a pretty spot“

“As a wedding photographer, I really enjoyed working at Harbour Estates Winery. The vineyard setting is just beautiful. There’s a nice variety of portrait locations right on the property, and just a short walk down to the water adds an amazing option for sunset photos.“

“I really love the atmosphere here. It was very calm. The patio is wonderful. It’s like sitting out on an old country farmhouse, wraparound porch kind of vibe but only way better and it has beautiful twinkle lights in the ceiling. My husband and I sat here for some wine, and it was just what we needed. It was very peaceful overlooking the rows of grapevines. The wine itself was quite delicious. I had a flight and I think there was only one that I wasn’t too fond of, but the rest were all great. We will be back for sure.“

“We had such a memorable experience here.

What stood out most was how genuinely cared for we felt throughout the entire visit. From the moment we sat down, there was a sense that this was going to be more than just another meal, and Kristen delivered on that completely.

We learned so much about the property, the wine, and the story behind what we were experiencing, but somehow the wine and all the details were not even what stayed with me most. It was the feeling of being there.

Kristen never made the experience about herself. She made it about us, our interests, what we were curious about, and what would make the experience meaningful. There was no feeling of being rushed or simply being another table. For a little while, it genuinely felt like we were visiting somewhere familiar, where someone was taking care of us rather than simply serving us.

We visited quite a few places during our trip, and this was one of those experiences that stayed with us long after we left. We actually found ourselves talking about it the next morning and realizing how rare it is to leave somewhere feeling genuinely happy and taken care of.

The wine was fantastic, the knowledge was impressive, and the experience was exceptional, but what we’ll remember is how we felt while we were there.

A huge thank you to Kristen and everyone involved in creating such a thoughtful experience. This is the kind of hospitality you remember.“

“Beautiful scenery 👌 as shown by my friend who visited. I will see it by myself next summer!“

“We visited Cave Springs for their 40th Anniversary Dinner event. The attention to detail and care we received was palpable, and it was great to connect directly with the winemaker and other personalities behind all of the bottles we've come to know so well. A very fine place and worth your time for a visit.“

“Absolutely gorgeous place. The road to get there is fun, passing by different wineries and farms. Nice view of the vines from the outdoor patio. The main building is small but quaint. Staff was polite but we had the chance to meet the owner and he spoke with us for a few minutes - very enjoyable. The wines were good however I preferred wines from other locations. We did end up buyong 2 bottles that we enjoyed. Tasting portions were on the smaller side. Was relaxing and nice to just sit and enjoy. Would definitely recommend as a more human version of other gigantic wineries.“

“My son and I found this winery last Saturday and just loved it. The staff was wonderful. They had a musician playing outside and we sat at the tables and wine tasted. The wine was amazing!!!!!!! We definitely will be coming back! Thank you Westcott!“

“This was our first time visiting Niagara Custom Crush. What a great opportunity to sample from at least a dozen businesses that make and retail their wines at this facility. We had a flight of 4 oaked Chardonnays to compare the different styles of winemaking and the vineyards that the grapes came from. It was a nice mix. Some of the bottle labels were interesting too. Staff was very helpful with information on the four wines we tried. They also offer charcuterie to accompany the wines. The grounds are well tended and there are lots of places to sit and enjoy your selections. Indoor seating is offered as well. Overall it was a great experience and we'll be back to sample some other varieties.“

“We had 8 people for a wine tour, and we had Orett as our guide and he was amazing. Very nice man, very knowledgeable and clearly loves his job. The venue itself was beautiful and he showed us where everything was made and explained the history and details of everything. We will definitely be returning, and will recommend to our family and friends! 10/10 experience.“

“Honsberger Estate winery is a hidden gem and a must visit winery! with beautiful groomed gardens, professional friendly staff, excellent freshly made charcuterie...and of course great wines! let glassowinetours.com take you there“

“A group of four of us enjoyed lunch there recently. The food is very good-excellent.

The fish in the fish and chips was the best my wife ever tasted, perfectly cooked and plump. The Fogo Island shrimp dish was delicious! Truffle pasta was equally tasty, and the sweet potato salad (see photo)is totally worth ordering due to the combination of complimentary and contrasting textures and flavours.

We sat inside because it was a very windy day, but the terrace looked lovely.“

“A perfect stop on the way back from Niagara Falls with friends. We made sure to reserve ahead, and it was absolutely worth it. The estate at Megalomaniac is beautiful and massive, with stunning outdoor seating and amazing vineyard views.

Jacob, our waiter, was amazing and made the whole experience even better with his service and recommendations. We ordered the Bubble Bread, Montreal Smoked Brisket Sandwich, Pesto Chicken Flatbread, and the Orecchiette Parmigiana. The flatbread alone could have been a full meal, and every dish was packed with flavour and beautifully prepared. Paired with their Chardonnay wine, everything came together perfectly. Overall, it was an amazing experience and such a great memory to share with friends.“

“How does one spend their birthday weekend? They find a quaint winery in Beamsville with a spectacular view and great wines and friendly knowledgeable staff. We had the most lovely server Jackie. Bravo! you made our wine tasting experience Awesome! Absolutely worth the drive to Beamsville!!

Thank you
Cheers
Tina and friends“
