Appassimento; Passito; Vin de Paille; Strohwein; Schilfwein; Prošek; Slámové vino; Vin Santo; Vino de Pasas; Caballo Blanco; Wineries from all over the world are embracing the art of drying grapes to concentrate the flavour and structure of the must and resulting wine. We have been using tobacco kilns and we like the results. We hand-harvest the grapes, gently placing each bunch in a single layer and only selecting the healthiest fruit. The kilns provide a perfect environment; plenty of ventilation and air-flow and the cool fall and winter temperatures slow down the process and prevent rot.

We are now located at Hunter Farms in Niagara-on-the-Lake. We have gone from “virtual” to official winery status. Our cellar door is open for tastings 7 days a week – 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., or if that doesn’t suit then we would be more than happy to accommodate by appointment. Groups of 6 or more please call ahead so we can prepare and provide you with the best experience possible. We look forward to having you over.

We welcome you to experience being an extended member of our family. Enjoy the warm hospitality of our team while experiencing a wide range of benefits. Think of it as being part of a secret wine society with access like no other!
