Such a wonderful spot tucked away! Love the “mom group” get-togethers and that they are so welcoming to families with young kids. We love tasting at the picnic tables so our little one can enjoy the yard outside!

This place deserves more accolades… incredible wine and great people. Thanks for the generous pour!

From the moment we arrived at the vineyard, it was clear this would be an extraordinary experience—not just because of the beautiful setting or the exquisite wine, but because of our incredible host. Our guide, Billy for the day was more than just a sommelier; he was an embodiment of warmth, passion, and knowledge that truly elevated the entire tasting.

As Billy welcomed us with a smile and an easy charm, he began sharing the history of the vineyard with a storyteller's flair. Every glass poured was accompanied by vivid descriptions of the wine's origins, flavor profiles, and the craftsmanship behind each bottle. What really set the experience apart was the personal touch—the host not only tailored the selections to our preferences but also made sure to engage with each guest individually, ensuring everyone felt included and appreciated.

The wines themselves were outstanding, with layers of complexity and depth, but it was our host’s enthusiasm and expertise that made the tasting unforgettable. Billy’s ability to create a relaxed, yet intimate atmosphere was remarkable. Whether they were explaining the subtleties of a bold Cabernet or guiding us through the delicate notes of a Chardonnay, his passion was infectious.

By the end of the tasting, we weren’t just leaving with bottles of our favorite selections—we were leaving with a deeper appreciation for the craft and an unforgettable memory, all thanks to the amazing host - Billy. If you’re looking for a wine tasting that combines exquisite wines with a truly special human connection, this is the place to be.

The staff was amazing. So knowledgeable and experienced. I'm excited to come back and try all the other different wines that I didn't get a chance to try today.

Sept2024: what a wonderful experience! My wife and I have been to 30 wineries in Niagara (yes, we keep track!), and Leaning Post ranks in the Top-5.
The terrific wines, the easy-going atmosphere and vibe, and the engaging service all contributed to a great experience!
Shout-out to our wonderful wine host, Stephanie!

Had the pleasure of trying this lovely bottle of Wine during the long weekend in August. Since then i’ve been looking for it ever since - I am wondering if the only place to purchase it is in store? If so i’ll gladly make the drive !

Very knowledgeable about their wines. Lovely patio set up. We will be back.

Really impressed with this winery. I've had their rosé before, and enjoyed it, and that's all I had to go on. We sat at the bar inside to do a tasting and our server was friendly and knowledgeable. We asked for tailored suggestions and he delivered! I usually refrain from buying the "affordable" chardonnays at wineries (they're usually too sweet, too oaked, or unbalanced in my opinion) but this one sold me. Their pinor noirs (and reds in general) were excellent.

Blown away with how many wineries there are between Niagara Falls and Toronto. Picked Leaning Post and didn’t disappoint. Super knowledgeable and very nice wine. Highly recommend.

This is the treat you get when the rain gets heavier and you want to stay awhile. Lauren and winemaker Nadia made this an experience that made us wanting more and more and more! So we did! Just hearing the passion-filled descriptions brought on another leg-filled glass to our table. Thank you for this extraordinary experience! You’re gonna be glad you drove away from the commercial fluff to get here.

A must visit gem! Quite a few great wines. Nadia was a great host and took us on an adventure with her wines. The clock work was exceptional as were their pinot noir and the Syrah.

Lovely tasting patio! They make wines in a wide range of methods, so it's interesting to try experimental wines, as well as ones you know will be favorites. Staff was super nice, professional, and knowledgeable.
