“Thank you for a wonderful experience. We came here for a nice romantic getaway. We reserved a private cabana with a beautiful view of the vineyards and we're not disappointed. Our server was Joey and he was exceptional. He took his time explaining each wine and pairing to us beginners. We learned a lot and highly recommend chateau de charms.“

“We had a wonderful tasting experience with Bree today. She’s very knowledgeable on wines and vines on site. Love her positive energy and enthusiasm. Thanks so much for making my day.“

“I love everything about Southbrook. Their wines are sustainably produced, organic, and biodynamic. They are also delicious, well made, and fairly priced. What else could anyone want? If you're trying to decide which wineries to visit while in the area, I've been to most of them over the years, and while many are truly excellent, I joined Southbrook's wineclub. 😉“

“Great food and amazingly creative drinks. Not just for adults. There's games for children. The ambience is perfect and the staff were hysterically funny. I can't wait to bring my girlfriend back. Try their wood fired pizzas! We're definitely going back again“

“We absolutely love Pilliteri. We attended again for the region’s Chocolate and Wine Discovery Pass, and we were serviced by Supreen. She made us feel welcomed and greeted us with a smile. She was very knowledgeable on the pairing and the different wines we were interested in. We ended up buying 6 bottles, but their wines are fabulous. Well worth the money. Later on in the evening, we went back for pizza and more wine. It was the perfect ending for our long day.“

“Charming destination for wine enthusiasts ?

Excels with Pinot Noir, Syrah, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Riesling, made in a low intervention, complex style for enjoying at the table, and often benefiting from bottle aging.

Knowledgeable and friendly staff, and the welcoming atmosphere.

The owner was a pleasure to chat with!

Cheers!“

“fantastic service from Megan today! the wine selection is amazing, so many good choices. There are a few blends that they have that were AMAZING. Definitely will be back soon! Thank you Megan & Marynissen staff!“

“Nice little winery with indoor seating and outdoor patio covered seating. They also have a more private I door setting in the back for bridal parties etc.
They were extremely busy with cycle wine touring groups but we were able to get a spot for 2 no issue.
We had 4 tastings each (of anything on their menu, seltzers included) for 20$ each and they had a promo where the flight fee is waived if you spend 50$ when purchasing bottles. They also had case sales going on.

We found a wine we both loved, but due to not having any space to carry a bottle home, we'll be looking out for it in the LCBO.“

“Our experience at Inniskillin was phenomenal. As wine country residents from Southern California, the experience with Leron at Inniskillin had no comparison. He shared so much about the winery and process, we tasted phenomenal wines and we will definitely be returning on our next visit.“

“We visited today for The Ice Wine Festival, Dimitri (from Pig Out) was a great and friendly young man and passionate about what he was presenting to us- roasted pig, which was amazing! Jeff from Reif was also very accommodating with the lovely Ice wine for The Ice wine Festival. With visits like this it makes for a wonderful afternoon! Thank you Guys!“

“Beautifully balanced wines, with full bodied flavor, highlighting the grape. We've compared Rachael's wines to countless bottles from all over the world, and his always win. He is truly master wine maker. Well done Sir!“

“Decent winery. We did not find anything on the tasting menu we liked, it was already curated and not customizable. Our host was very knowledgeable of the wines they sold and brought us a few extra wines to try. We ended up buying those that they suggested to us.

The building and grounds has a very over the top modern feel to it, fits it's vibe as a new boutique winery. Great views off of the patio.
The vibe is more of , we know what you will like vs we might have something you like.
If it wasn't for the staff and their knowledge we would have had a much more negative experience. Cheers.“

“We had a great time tasting wines yesterday! Carol made the experience very fun and we did a lot of laughing! Left with some local popcorn to take back to AR and also four bottles of wine!“

“Love this store. Very friendly staff and free samples at the Wine Tasting counter. I've been drinking their Small Batch apple flavoured cider for a couple of years and love it. Not sure about the comment that it was awful. They have a couple of other flavours so it might have been one of them. I've only tried the apple and stick to it. Delicious!!“

“I had family visiting from the U.S. and was interested in doing the winery tour. Unfortunately we were too late for the scheduled daily tour. However, we got still got tour by Brad who spoke to us about the history of winemaking in the region, different wines, the college and vineyard/winery. It was very educational and interesting. The rest of the staff was lovely as well. Highly recommend!“

“Ariana made our wine tour an absolute delight! Her storytelling brought the history of the vineyards to life, and her suggestions for tastings were spot on. She created a perfect balance of fun and education. A must-do experience with her as the guide!“

“We want to send a shout-out and thank Mike, Amanda and Colleen for their wonderful hospitality! Our non-profit organization recently held a large fundraiser at Bella Rose and everyone loved the venue. We appreciated all the work that went into the set-up and highly recommend Bella Rose for any event you may be planning. We'll be back next year!“

“I took my wife to Niagara Falls for our anniversary. On a tip they said to go to Niagara on the Lake and the wineries around it. I saw this place on the map and we took an Uber to check it out.

We were glad we did because this was an awesome stop. The owner was incredibly friendly. The farm was cute. And best of all the wine was awesome.

We both especially liked the ice wine. But there were a lot of good options.

Word of warning: they don’t ship outside of Canada. So you might not be able to buy if you flew in.“

“Great spot! Was originally called Small Talk Vineyards and just this July 2022 it has been sold and being renamed. No official sign, but everything says "Shiny Apple Cider". The staff is very friendly and helpful. We each got a flight if the different types of cider. They were all really good! My favorite was the watermelon mint Cider. Lots of space to park and sit down outside to enjoy your cider.“

“We made wine and beer for a birthday party. They were very helpful, professional and a pleasure to work with. Everyone loved the beer and wine - both red and white. We will definitely be back and would highly recommend them :)
Bernice and Oliver.“

“We had a wonderful time here and learned a lot during our wine tasting. We will definitely be back!“

“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“

“My husband and I enjoyed a wine tasting. We also had a charcuterie board. The wines were very good. We purchased 2 of the reds. We also bought some cheese that we had on the charcuterie. It is a very quaint European feeling winery. it was very enjoyable“

“Great place and awesome people, beautiful wine“

“I highly recommend visiting this winery !!!! They will take you on this amazing journey of wine making. We came here for my future husband's 50th birthday, and wow, we were blown away ! I highly recommend taking a blind tasting with Cubby. He took us on a wonderful journey of wine tasting and making. Don't think about it. Just come. You will not regret it. This is high-quality wine. Grab a few bottles and enjoy !“

“great family owned place friendly and knowledgeable highly recommended“

“Great place... wheelchair accessible... lovely people... simple, tasty bits to eat... yummy cider. Rhubarb cider? Look forward to returning.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wide, accessible parking spots. Paved lot. There's some gravel between the lot and the walkway leading to the entrance. Maybe 10' Likely ok for manual and power chairs, but might not be great for people unsteady on their feet. Big, heavy doors, but they are equipped with push door openers. But they were not turned on. They apologized and fixed the issue immediately. Theo brought a lower table to an inside window spot without having to be asked. Lovely person. Kate (hope we remembered correctly) is a friendly and knowledgeable server. A pleasure! And Shannon... thanks for the tasty bits. We wish you every success. We did not check the bathroom accessibility.“

“Visited Peller Estates winery on a weekday in November and was not very busy . Booked Greatest winery tour for 4 and tour started on time with guide giving in depth explanations about the wines to be tried. Tour lasted about 45 minutes and ended with visit to ice cave. Nice “igloo” style room with plenty of ice wine and nice decor. We continued to wine store/bar and tried additional wines as part of the Wine Club. Very much enjoyed everything.“

“We always make JT our last stop when we are enjoying NOTL wine tour!!
Save the best for last!
Our tasting expert this time was Doug ~ what an absolute pleasure he was! Taught us about the wines, helped with choices in our flight & introduced us to a sparkling Merlot!! Oh my!! Thank you Doug!
As well, all of the staff on this day were exceptional - super friendly!“

“We visited Colaneru Estates Winery innl a summer and we had an amazing wine tasting experience. Host was very knowledgeable about bot only wine that we tasted but also about family history. All wines had specific story attached to it. Absolutely breath taking scenery. It felt like like we are in Italy not in Niagara on the Lake. I loved the whole experience and I'm sure to go back.“

“We went for a wine tour on 12/7 for our anniversary at Trius and our tour guide was Barry who was exceptional!! Barry was professional, very knowledgeable and a great guide throughout our experience sharing stories, taking pictures for us and of course providing us with some great wine and cotton candy. I just wanted to thank Barry for making our experience amazing and perfect, so thank you so much for that!“

“Booked a private tasting. It was not private. We shared the space with other groups. Our person advised it was because another group took over the normal area. It was a problem for me because I had to walk up multiple flights of steps with a walker. But the view was worth it in the end. The view of the vineyards is remarkable.

Our wine person was very friendly and was able to track down the wines I was most interested in sampling. The tasting came with 4 samples that you select from a list.

I was lucky enough to sample the Pinot Noir Off Dry. It was so good I bought 3 bottles.
Our group enjoyed the wines here.“

“This is a beautiful winery. The parking lot has plenty of space, even for an RV. Inside is a gift shop, next to a wine tasting space. I didn't have the opportunity to try the restaurant, but I was able to find a bottle of one of their rose' wines in the gift shop.“

“Excellent afternoon, well informed staff“

“Just finished a double date outing and it was a blast. Highly recommend doing the tour! Cal was our tour guide and he didn't skip a beat! Our group had a lot of questions and he was very informative, friendly and kind. Great way to spend a Saturday afternoon with a group of friends“
