Gord and I spent the afternoon doing winery tours with with
Niagara Wine Tours International ... Tracy was our guide. We had done winery tours with them last year. We stopped at three wineries.
Riverview Cellars Estate Winery was our first stop. We got to pick 4 wines we wanted to try. Gord and I both chose a 2021 Riesling, a 2022 Astra Riesling and a Gerwürtraminer ice wine. I had a 2020 Barrel 81 Cabernet-Merlot while Gord had a Gerwürtraminer. Lovely setting on the porch. The glasses were arranged according to sweetness.
The second stop was the German-owned
Konzelmann Estates Winery. There were 4 wines to try … an unoaked Chardonnay, a Merlot, a Peach and a Vidal Select Late Harvest. The glasses were arranged according to sweetness. There is a tower you can climb the stairs (which we did) and on a clear day apparently you can see Toronto.
The third and final stop was
Between the Lines Winery. We upgraded to have sparkling wine and ice wine which came with cheese and dessert. Tracy at Between the Lines Winery was fun and knowledgeable.
