Winemaker Ann Sperling

Not only were we tickled pink to see our 75th Anniversary swag on display in Crush: Message In A Bottle, we were so delighted to see our valued customers alongside Ann at Mason Vineyard, Domaine Queylus, Malivoire Wine Company, and Bachelder put their heart and soul into their craft. Check out what the Globe and Mail refers as a "new Canadian film [that] captures the growing pains of winemaking in Niagara" on TVO Today here!

OUR WARMEST WISHES TO YOU

Season's Greetings! We recently came across this trending TikTok Holiday Campaign from a Northern Ireland family-run bar, it truly resonated for us that it is the local businesses who champion our communities. 

We have so much gratitude for partnering with all our customers. We hope the season reveals an abundance of support and promise for 2024, while of course, making time for gathering with those we hold nearest and dearest!
