Shared a wonderful lunch with my mom at this enchanting winery. From the moment we stepped in, we were captivated by the stunning scenic atmosphere. The air was filled with the sweet serenity of a countryside escape. As we settled in, we couldn't help but notice farm animals casually strolling about, adding an authentic touch to the ambiance.Amidst the charm, friendly chickens circled the tables, seemingly minding their own business but infusing the surroundings with a delightful liveliness. The warmth of the country feel was truly comforting.Now, onto the culinary delights. The artichoke dip was a standout, a burst of flavors that delighted the taste buds. The wine selection didn't disappoint either; each sip was a journey through rich and vibrant notes.The staff contributed significantly to the positive experience. Their friendliness and attentiveness added to the overall enjoyment. It felt like we were not just customers but guests in a welcoming environment.And, of course, the cherry on top – or rather, the view on top. The sight of Rideau Lake from the winery was nothing short of breathtaking. It elevated our lunch experience to a new level, providing a serene backdrop to the laughter and enjoyment.In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend this cottage farm-style chic winery to anyone seeking a memorable time. It's a perfect blend of great food, flavorful wines, friendly staff, and a stunning view – a true gem waiting to be experienced.

My brother and his wife joined my wife and I for lunch and we shared 4 different pizzas with drinks. Everything was amazing… pizzas were the best, the wine/drinks were great and the service was top notch.Highly recommend this place?

This winery has a stunning location overlooking a lake. Take a break from your everyday to drink in the beautiful artworks around the property. If the owners have time, spend a little time chatting about the history and develop an understanding of their love and commitment to their art. You don't go to a winery for fast food so while you wait for the freshly prepared food to be brought to your table, mingle with the chickens and ducks. Say hello to the resident dog. The meal will be more than worth waiting for.

Always an incredible experience everytime we go. The wine and food is absolutely amazing! I look forward to the Shrimp and Steak everytime! Paired with their red wine is an experience you will never forget. Perfection!

Service was quick, efficient and with a fantastic smile. Thank you Odessa. Food was delicious. I've been here numerous times for the steak and it melts in your mouth every time. Never disappoints.

My sister and I enjoyed a lovely lunch here Aug. 17/23. The Caliente and Malta pizzas were excellent and the wines are lovely! The wait staff are exceptional and our server Ruth really added to our enjoyment. For us it is pricey but well worth it for a special treat!

Beautiful drive from Ottawa area. This Vineyard has a decent menu and great wines. Pizza and Salad were exceptional. Will visit again in fall to enjoy the colors.Particularly enjoyed their Pinot Noir.The day I visited was sunny, but they have a large tent to protect from mild rain, something to keep in mind if you are planning a visit on a rainy day.

The Winery was outdoors/could be under a tent. A great experience looking over the lake and enjoying excellent food. The Steak meal was generous enough for 2 people and the pizzas were extraordinary. The waiting staff were friendly and helpful. The wine was awesome. What more can I say, an overall great experience. Thank you.
We had the Quesa and Highland pizzas. Both were delicious. I had the 2018 white wine, low in sugar and with notes of green apple just like the server knowledgeable told me. The wine was delicious.Their website said we couldn't reserve a table. Once we got there, plenty of tables were available. So I'd say that just go onsite at least at lunchtime.

Exceptional service from Maverick and the staff tonight! Food was out quickly and the artichoke dip and shrimp appetizers were very pleasing to the palette! Wood oven pizzas are highly recommended. The Highland pizza was scrumptious! Be back soon!

We did a wine tasting prior to our meal and selected a bottle to share. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable. We each ordered a different pizza and they were all good - fresh ingredients and unique combinations. Staff moved our table from the edge of the dining area when a thunderstorm brought heavy rains. Even with the soaking, they were pleasant and laughing. One carried around a patio umbrella to help servers and patrons get back and forth to the tent. They had basic wooden chairs, benches and tables so next time we may bring a cushion. Lovely lakeside setting!

First the road could be less dusty and we were afraid to run over the chicken on the road coming in. Our meat was good but too much grizzle for us. Love the music. Beans were to salty.

Always a good experience here. Service was great and the wood fired pizza never disappoints. Dessert is always so decadent, the sugar pie is highly addictive! The Vidal is our favourite wine, very reasonably priced and well paired with the pizza. HIGHLY recommend for anyone visiting the area. We visit by boat, it's a good 15min walk mostly uphill on the way there but worth every step!!
