He sat down with us the last two times when we were visiting. Love the Chardonnay, rose and sparkling wines offered. Always one of my stops when I’m in the NOTL region. Keep up the great work Southbrook!!“

“Everything about Palatine Hills Estate Winery was wonderful. We hadn't set up any tastings for this day so we were looking for something approachable and willing to accept us in more casual clothing! 😁The entire team here was lovely, knowledge and welcoming and the wine maker was bopping around to have chats and answer questions which was so fun. The wine itself is delicious and there is something for everyone to fall for and for every taste profile! I would definitely recommend and, if I lived in the area, would be a regular!“

“Great wine & service. The owner was very nice. They sell delicious short bread cookies, the proceeds go to a women’s shelter.“

“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.“

“YES! The best red in this region was the cadenza! I don’t drink reds usually but this was amazing. I felt like I can drink it with a salmon or sushi it just melted my heart“

“Great service. Friendly and hospitable. Interesting tasting experience.“

“Superb wines, beers and spirits available during an excellent (relaxed) tasting session with brilliant informative staff. This is actually a wine college / university that sells what it's students craft and produce. Brilliant on all levels.“

“Beautiful venue!!! Highly recommend, great service and amazing drinks!!!!!!“

“We popped in as one of our sip and sizzle stops and it was fabulous. Tom served us, and was very personable, knowledgeable and provided an excellent experience. The goat cheese tart was incredible and I loved the sauv blanc it was paired with, and will pick up a bottle next time I’m there. I was able to try the rose, and it was one of my favourite roses I’ve had in a while, so I grabbed a bottle. I also grabbed 3 red wines for my dad who loves Strewn wines, due to the quality and flavour profiles. We will definitely be back!“

“J'y suis allé à l'été 2025 avec ma mère, ma fille, ma femme et ma belle-mère, très belle expérience avec du personnel compétent et engagé. Merci pour tout“

“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.“

“Great staff and customer service. Staff are very knowledgeable! Stocked up on our favourite wines for Xmas gifts and now their New Sangria’s where do I begin with those, The Sempre sparkling wine is Amazing. Love when you open the door to their establishment you are welcomed with the smell of wine. It’s so familiar feels like you are at home celebrating with your big Italian family and catching up with your relatives. That is my experience .“

“This was a wonderful surprise. My wife and I were cruising Niagara-on-the-Lake and noticed this winery. We’ve never been here before and knew nothing about it. My wife had a wine slushy and I had a flight of red wines, as well as ordering a charcuterie board. The reds were very nice (especially the Merlot and the Stud

Julien was our server and was very helpful in describing the wine, pointing out the source for grapes and the certification for organic

All in all a very pleasurable experience and a great break!“

“It was not only the superb wine and beautiful estate that made our afternoon at Konzelman Estate Winery exceptional, it was the warm atmosphere created by knowledgable, helpful and friendly staff. From the minute Dominica warmly welcomed us we felt right at home. She went over and above to take care of us, ensuring we had time to enjoy a charcuterie before our tour. Our server Hannah was so friendly and helpful, serving us in a timely manner so could enjoy a tour. And our guide Marcella was not only knowledgeable, but engaging as she shared history and stories of the Estate. Thank you to all the staff, we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our visit to Konzelman.“
