FROGPOND FARM
ORGANIC WINERY

FEROX BY FABIAN REIS
Formerly Vignoble Rancourt Winery, now home of Ferox by Fabian Reis,
this small boutique winery is in the heart of Niagara Wine Country. Fabian
Reis, sixth generation vintner and schooled in his native Germany, together
with Sommelier wife Stephanie, are merging tradition and modernity in
their bold, unconventional winemaking from vineyard to bottle.

Experience the natural charm of Frogpond Farm, Ontario's first organic
winery, certified since 2001. This family farm uses environmentally
sound and sustainable practices to craft authentic, small lot wine
expressing its unique terroir. Enjoy a picnic by the pond with a glass of
wine and organic cheeses available at the winery or take a self-guided
tour of the vineyard.

ICELLARS ESTATE WINERY

INNISKILLIN WINES

In 2010, the ICEL family purchased 60 acres of fallow land that was
formerly an old peach orchard. The ICELs planted 95% red vinifera grapes
in the vineyard, which enjoys one of the warmest growing seasons in
Niagara. The family owned and operated winery focuses on dry, powerful
wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Bordeaux-style blends, Syrah
as well as Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Visit the boutique winery to taste
small-lot, hand-crafted ultra-premium wines.

Canada's premier estate winery is open year-round for tours and tastings
of exclusive Icewines and premium table wines, crafted by Winemaker
Bruce Nicholson. Visit the historic Brae Burn Barn for sampling and shopping,
and the Founders' Hall culinary centre. Seasonally, our outdoor Market
Grill on The Piazza is the scenic setting to enjoy casual dining and a
glass of our finest.
