Specializes in dry reds which is tough for the region but the meritage is fantastic. In fact, we even had a 2010 vintage by the glass! That may be fluke than standard but what a friend. I personally wasn't intrigued by any of the reds but was able to find their sauv blanc equivalent that was DELICIOUS, they had a great menu, light fare but good choices and well priced. This Place will be stunning in the summer. read more

We've visited this winery at least six times over the past year, and each visit has been consistently enjoyable. The setting is tasteful, simple and clean good food, and for this area, truly exceptional wines. It even has a touch of a German winery feel, both in its atmosphere and its selection. The staff is always respectful, friendly, and helpful, with a nice sense of humor. read more

A great spot to have a drink and order a little appetizer or lunch. Unlike other wineries, you can sit with your group at a table with your wine, beer or food. It has a more relaxed and intimate feel, great for a date or to catch up with friends, rather than what you get in a traditional tasting room. read more

We were more than delighted by this vineyard. The staff (James) was very friendly and welcoming . The food was very good. We shared the cheese plate, chicken salad and pizza and all were delicious . The grounds were absolutely beautiful inside and out. The best part was the wine. The Cabernet Franc was the best. It was so wonderful here we went back twice and included this vineyard into our vacation plans as we are from Las Vegas. Plus, this is family friendly so our son enjoyed Ian the dog very much. Ian is a very good boy and very friendly. read more

This has become my favorite winery on the Niagara Wine Trail. I am a dry red drinker, and they have some great choices. On my visit this past weekend, I was there for a private class & wine tasting on their blended wines, a benefit of their monthly case club. The class was given my Duncan, one of the owners. Interesting class and interesting guy. The winery was opened 20 years ago by Duncan and his wife Robin. Family owned and run. Not only do they have good wine but also good food. This visit I ordered the Hansel sandwich. Thuringer, smoked gouda, and beer mustard on a crunchy baked baguette. I actually never had thuringer before, but it won't be the last. Warm welcoming place with great wine, yummy food, and beautiful views. This all made for a nice break on a rainy afternoon. 2024-16 read more

First time back in 7 years and a lot has changed since then. Their new tasting room is gorgeous, with a mix of indoor and outdoor seating. Some of the indoor seating overlooks their vineyard. Wine tastings include 4 pours and run from $9-$13 depending on which flight you choose. There's also a food menu, and we enjoyed a cheese plate (with meat), which came with 4 cheeses, 3 types of meats, and crackers - all which complimented the Standard flight well. Service here was great too, as well as the friendly dog. Additionally, I appreciated that they had 5 gender neutral and clean bathrooms. I would love to come here again soon. read more

I will definitely go back. It was read more

Astounding Place ! While we were in the Area we were looking for a place to explore and this Vineyard was one of them. We decided to give a try and we weren't disappointed. The place is fabulous ! Big parking lot with a beautiful view. Since you go in you feel this warming welcome from the staff and even the visitants. There is 2 floors but the second floor is only for members, if you live near the place being a member here is a must. First you need to get a wine flight so you can taste a variety of wines. I really recommended the house wine, is sweet and very tasteful. We ordered 2 wine flights , one only red and the other had 2 white and 2 red wines. We had the place for ourselves, maybe 2 tables more. We came here early because we wanted to have a quietly vibe. You can seat anywhere you like , we choose near the window. The staff is amazing helpful and extremely pleasant. The wines were really good, we bought 2 bottles to go. The decoration of this place is elegant and romantic , you can feel the coziness in every corner. We spotted 2 beautiful dogs playing with balls, they were saying hello to the customers while they were playing hide and seeking with each other. Dogs bring a peaceful ambience in every place they are, is very enjoyable seeing them playing with their angel innocence. The place is extremely clean , the bathrooms are spotless. Definitely a must !!! extremely recommended ! read more

What a great place to stop & chill if you're just enjoying a leisure weekend. My husband & I were only in town for 1 night, and we decided to make 1 winery stop, landed here. I was able to pick own tasting, & it was no masks but still self service tasting, which is perfectly fine. The indoors is a really nice space, & there's a sweet dog named Ian who my husband played ball with was so sweet. As for the wine I enjoyed the Reisling but the real winner was the Red Meritage, sooooo delicious, I had a glass & enjoyed the surroundings. Nice place read more

Had a nice drive to Lockport from buffalo NY! Make sure you slow down on the highway for the entrance or you will pass it and need to turn around. It's not that the entrance is hard to miss, it's the highway coming down a hill that makes you want to roll with the fast flow of traffic. Upon entering was greeted immediately, the hostess was very kind and knowledgeable, with the exception of not knowing the alcohol content on the wines. Understandably, when it's good you just drink it! I'm a dry drinker and hubby a sweet drinker (really he'd just prefer a beer) anyway we shared a flight and enjoyed the beautiful quiet atmosphere. Now onto the next winery! read more

The wine here is good. The location is great. The inside reminds me of a library alot of wood it is a warm welcoming interior. There is a nice outside area overlooking the winery. The ground is small gravel that could be annoying in the wrong kind of shoes. The reason for 1 star review is the owner is completely unfriendly and down right snobby. Seemed annoyed to have to talk with us. My other disappointment is there are only prepriced wine flights to pick from or you can pay an upcharge to select your own. Also they will not let you buy a bottle to consume on the premises you can only purchase per glass. I have never heard of such a thing at a winery. Just away I guess for the owner to get most money out of you. read more

I attended a u-pick lavender event at nearby Kinloch Farmsteads, and they recommended stopping at several local wineries while in the area -- I'm so glad they did! Arrowhead Spring Vineyards is a GORGEOUS winery with delicious wines -- especially their crisp, mineral-y white wines -- unusual in this region of Rieslings. Try their Traminette, for sure -- but why not get a flight of whites to enjoy, while overlooking their vineyards from their back deck? The inside tasting room area is also handsomely designed and cozy. All around, a win! Glad I've discovered Arrowhead Spring Vineyards -- we'll be back! read more

Horrible bartender. He was very rude and condescending. Made the experience horrible, scary, and uncomfortable. Never want to go back and definitely never will. Check out any other winery in the area. Every other one has great service and wine. This winery only has a super mean dude that deliberately tries to make you feel bad from the moment you enter the place. An absolute terrible experience. I'm embarrassed for this place to have that guy serving at all. read more

This winery is for the lovers of dry wines. I enjoy a good cabernet or zin but these were just not to my liking. The person who presented the tasing options was not very welcoming and seemed kind of bored. The young lady helping him was very nice. However the venue was beautiful and the four legged host, Ian was adorable. read more

This was by far the nicest winery we have been to on the Niagara Wine Trail; I wanted to give it 5 stars however the high cost of the products / food is too great to be able to do so. I understand there is high overhead to contend with, but the prices here far outpaced all of the other wineries we have been too locally, and for food it was simply to worth it. The Blackbird hard cider that other places charge $4-5 for is $8 here. The cheese platter is $17 and you don't get much, should you opt for the additional meet for the $5 up charge they give you pre-sliced pepperoni that you could pick up at a grocery store. I was definitely disappointed on that front. I didn't have a sandwich, wrap or pizza but those seemed to be high quality though the same high price. On the wine front I selected two bottles of Syrah and went to check out, much to my surprise my total came to $86. This was almost double the most expensive bottle of wine we had seen that day, and this was our third stop. I have no doubt the wine will be good, but is it $86 good, when I could have gotten several other options elsewhere for $20-25? Only time will tell. The costs aside, this is a stunning property and one that clearly is taken extremely good care of. Inside and out, you could tell great attention was placed on the small details to make a warm and inviting space. Not to mention there was two lovely dogs outside very happy to get petted and keep visitors happy. I would come back, but would be very mindful of my spending and what I was selecting. read more

Beautiful Winery and they were very kind. We didn't love any of their wine they were just ok. They had some cute gifts aside from the wine. We purchased some unique gifts to bring back home. They had enough space to spread out and social distance. We enjoyed some girl talk and the Vineyard was the perfect back drop. They had seating inside and out. If someone really wanted to go I'd join them and have a glass of Reisling. read more

This is the most beautiful dry red winery on the Niagara Wine trail. Small, family-owned and operated. Just opened a new tasting room that is so comfy and cozy you'd like to spend every weekend there. Along with many wines (my favorite is the Cab Franc), there's a great view, puzzles, books and rockers around a wood-burning stove. High ceilings and lots of wood décor. There's even a special loft specifically for Case Club members - of which I am of course! Never miss an opportunity to stop in. read more

This winery is gorgeous - if you sit inside there are huge windows that overlook the vineyards and tons of plants. There's also a great patio outside where you can see the rolling hills, and there were two dogs hanging out! I had a glass of wine and it was great, and my husband enjoyed his beer as well. The only reason I'm removing one star is they do not allow you to buy a bottle of wine to drink on premises and you have to buy by the glass. read more

This was a quick stop for us while in the area. we arrived with our 2 month old and we were warmly welcomed. Food was great, service was friendly, and beautiful scenery. Would definitely stop again. read more

Arrowhead Springs Vineyards is another standout on the wine trail, even though they don't make my personal favorite wines. Their specialty is dry reds that rival California, but they also have dry whites and a few sweeter offerings. They are currently expanding their vineyards and completing a new building. You will always receive an informative tasting. The current tasting room is beautiful so the new one opening next year will certainly be just as lovely. I love being greeted by their sweet, well behaved border collie. He will even walk you back out to the parking lot. read more

Arrowhead Spring Vineyards - World's best wine ambassador - Wineries Near Me - Lockport, New York

Have had okay experiences here in the past but this was not one of them. The issues were with the service (missing item from our order), the taste of the wine (poor taste), and the dogs. We called ahead and asked if our group could bring a dog and they said yes. There is even a chalkboard out front that says the winery dogs are "friendly." One of the two winery dogs was sniffing and greeting our group's dog while wagging tails. Out of nowhere with no warning the winery dog put their whole mouth around our group's dog (a senior dog, not aggressive at all) and attacked. The owners were notified and we had to ask twice to have the dog taken indoors away from us. Will not be recommending or returning. read more

Cute place with a bunch of plants, nice view and a cute border collie. The wine just isn't it though. I guess I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up about that though. I like dry reds and supposedly they specialize in dry reds. I tried all of them and couldn't find one I could truly enjoy. read more

We were visiting Niagara Falls for the weekend and just had the most wonderful Saturday evening at Arrowhead. The ambience is cozy and romantic. Huge, high vaulted ceilings, lots of seating with tables far from each other for privacy, and beautiful views of the vineyards outside. There is also an outdoor area and a tented outdoor area. My favorite part? The two beautiful, friendly dogs. The food is AMAZING. Do not miss the BBQ chicken panini. We even got a panini to go for breakfast the next day. They feature local ingredients and are just truly delicious. The wine is also great. We had two flights of white and then several glasses of our favorites. The owner and her son were so welcoming - truly lovely people. He recommended some foodie spots for us to try, including Hibbards custard, where we stopped on the way home. Thank you for a wonderful night! If you are in the Niagara Falls area you must make this a stop! read more

The worst treatment I received from all the wineries we have went to this weekend. Staff was very rude!! Didn't buy a thing zero stars !!!! Will make sure the bus trip I am on all the women have the same feelings very bad treatment!!! Wasn't able to taste the Syrah or merlot or any of the wine library they did give us a glass wow so you don't want to go to arrowhead winery New York!!!! read more

I would not go back. My girlfriend and I both bought one flight each and one glass of wine and a chicken noodle soup and the bill was $73. We could've got a full meal for that much. This place is way too expensive for what we received in return. read more

This place is absolutely stunning. They have a larger banquet room they open up for summer time but their winter room is so cozy too with a wood burning fireplace and their sweet pup walks around the place as well. The wines are mostly dry but they are all very smooth still. The owner is such a sweetheart my group had such great conversation with her. Definitely should be on your list of places to stop on the Niagara wine trail read more

So many wonderful things about this place: Setting, the tasting/indoor seating areas and outside options. Beautiful view of their vineyard as well. Wines are fantastic, in particular their Pinot Noir. Coming from WA, I've had a difficult time with Niagara region wine, but Arrowhead is the exception. Staff is friendly and accommodating - well versed in knowledge of wine and winemaking. Highly recommend! read more

I have been to this winery a couple times in the past and had a good experience. But today was not the case. We immediately walked in and was disrespected. We understand the circumstances of Covid, and we were more than happy to abide by the rules, but our server was so nasty and disrespectful to our group for absolutely no reason. Not sure why we stay still and ordered. The wines were okay. We will not be back due to the attitude and unnecessary disrespect of this establishment. read more

If you're looking for quality Niagara Falls wine, this is the place to go. James, the director of sales, spent the better part of his afternoon educating my fiancé and I about wine, the process of wine making, and what it means to be "vintage." We visited a variety of wineries in the area and this one was by far the friendliest. James was funny, welcoming, and we sincerely enjoyed his recommendations! Come to Arrowhead if you're looking for a French inspired dry red with a touch of class. read more

Another good experience along the Niagara Wine Trail. The owners' son was pouring wine that day. So we got to hear a lot about how they make wine in western New York.

Arrowhead Spring Vineyards - Tasting room - Wineries Near Me - Lockport, New York

A last minute addition on our trip to Buffalo, by way of recommendation from my brother-in-law's coworker. He owes that person a round (or a bottle from Arrowhead!). The tasting room is absolutely beautiful and the views are worth the visit alone. We went on a weekday and had the place to ourselves. An absolutely phenomenal time enjoying different samplers made all the better by conversation with the proprietor. Their emphasis on a more personal experience, with clear guidance for "buses" to stay clear, only adds to my respect for what they've created. My only regret was our decision to fly to Buffalo limiting our ability to take a case home with us. The Cab 10-80 and Syrah were instant favorites and, if I were a local, the Case Club would be a no brainer. Next time, we drive! read more

Stopped here for a great wine tasting. They tend to stick to the drier side for their wines but offered a few sweeter wines. Their iced wine was very good (bought 2 bottles). Our wine sommelier was knowledgeable and friendly. Great wines and they are expanding their wine tasting room and adding a large event space. They grow their own grapes and all production is on property. Reasonable prices for great wines! Will definately be back! read more

This was, sadly, the first winery stop on our entire whirlwind tour of the whole Niagara and Finger Lakes wine regions. I say sadly, because I wouldn't realize until the end that it was also my favorite. Thankfully, even though I didn't know it would turn out to be my favorite dry Riesling all trip (and there was a *lot* of competition, obviously), we did still buy a bottle of it. But all their wines we tried were some of the best in their respective categories, including, notably, by *far* the best ice wine we tried all trip, not even a competition. So I was sad we didn't leave with any of that - I figured there'd be tons of amazing ice wine, but nope. Tons of ice wine, but Arrowhead Springs' was far more flavorful than any of the others we tried - just that, when were there, it was $40 for one, or $50 for two - our wine suitcase ended up overfull by the end of the trip anyway, so we didn't want to start by buying two bottles of the same things. If it'd been at the end of the trip, though, after we'd tried all the other ice wine and found this one by far the tastiest... I probably would've found room for a couple bottles of it at that price. It is kinda funny, since they say they specialize in dry reds, but those were both not dry reds, and still crazy delicious. Scenery is nothing much, and it's a little out of the way, but that's probably why it was so relaxing even on the weekend, when some of the bigger wineries were crazy busy and loud. And yes, their dog is also totally the greatest, friendliest, funniest dog to play with ever. read more

Really nice place small tasting room, friendly staff. For $5 you can choose 4 wines for tasting. Only negative - they do not change the glasses from white to red. At least we've got a new glas for the vidal. read more
