    Came here for some wine and apps and had a great experience. It was raining while I was there so unfortunately I didn't really get to see their outdoor area but I sat in the covered portion and it was very cozy in the rain. Definitely a more casual vibe than some of the other wineries in Niagara on the Lake. The flatbread and creme brûlée were both delicious and the wine was also a lot more affordable than other wineries we went to that day. Will be back next time I'm in the area.

    I've been going here on and off for years and recently visited during Canada Day weekend. My latest revisit just solidified this as my favourite winery! Tasting is $5 a flight of 4 glasses. If you purchase a bottle the $5 goes towards your purchase. I wish it was available at LCBO but you can only get it there or their website and pay $15 shipping fee. I have done both before. If you enjoy fruit forward wines with soft tannins, and low acidity. I definitely recommend the following: 2020 Foch VQA - Residual Sugar: 14.3 g/L. Notes of ripe red plums, blueberry, raspberry and a hint of tobacco. One of my favourites! Pinot Cherry - New Release in May 2023. Residual Sugar: 23.2 g/L. Blend of Pinot Noir and Cherry wine. This wine is very fruit forward and juicy. Loving the new release! Prior wasn't as much of a fan but this one is a winner. 2022 Vidal VQA - Residual Sugar: 22.2 g/L. Fruity and crisp with notes of peach, pineapple and melon. Refreshing and light, perfect for a summer day. Service: Staff have always been very friendly and patient. Giving good advice on recommendations. Interior: Standing tastings only, no seats. Interior is a bit dark with wooden paneling all over but it keeps with tradition as the rustic decor has not changed for years if ever. Overall, I will absolutely come back again and again as I have the previous years. I have tried many of their wines and my recommendations above are my favourite go to's. If you prefer something more medium bodied, maybe try their Baco Noir, Cabernet-Merlot or Farmers Red.

    Nice Winery with many tasty options.Weathet you want ice, fruit, dessert, white, rose or red you will not be disappointed. Plus you can grab a bite in the farmhouse cafe.I really enjoyed the plum fruit wine I received with fast and friendly service. Plenty of parking on the premises.

    Nice little wineery and restaurant. The wine tasting was great. We had a very helpful tender who did a great job talkinG us throuugh their many options. For the tasting they offer you four different samples each. Great thing is that with ttes of us we got to try eight of their wines. She walked us through the whites, we sampled four of them. We enjoyed the Farmer's Chardonnay the most, although the Riesling was also tasty. The two Red's we enjoyed the most were the Farmer's Red, a blend and their Cab-Merlot. Both were excellent. We stopped in to the restaurant for a quick snack. The overall menu looked very good, but we settled on the Charcuterie Plate. Good selection at a good price.

    Great country vibe! Very true to the farmhouse feel! Food is great, especially the steak sandwich! The poutine is a must as a side! Lemonade is excellent! Great place for family and friends!

    Unpretentious and probably my favorite in Niagara.

    There are so many vineyards here and many have their own focus on what segment of the market they are trying to attract. I probably came here for the first time in 2004? From what I can recall, they had won several awards and yet, it was quiet, not too many people tasting and the service was unpretentious and excellent. I thought, wow, this place is geared for the locals and everyone who wants to come in and have a taste (you get 4 per person). Fast forward to 2018 and it's still that way, kind hearted staff, really great wine and ice wine and now - a restaurant (which I haven't tried yet). To my dismay, it's more popular now, with tour buses and more people. Which I guess, are all signs of their success but a bummer if you want a peaceful experience. I would recommend that you pick up several bottles of ice wine here, as you won't be able to find this label at any Binny's.

    I contemplated the fourth star but decided they deserved if I'm rating solely on food, which was great! Meh wine, but not expensive at all so it balances there, atmosphere was very nice, sitting outside on the patio near vineyards, very friendly service (sat as just 15 min before close) and their price point is really good for Niagara on the Lake. They are only open for lunch (some varying dinner hours) though so plan ahead for that. We ordered a special "taco poutine" which was awesome! Only like $11 for a huge plate of thick fries with gravy, cheese and taco toppings. We also got a $14 charcuterie board which was good too but wish there was more cheese. Overall a really nice experience and would probably go back but there are also so many great places to try in NOTL!

    We had the rib-eye sandwich with an upgrade to the poutine and the buttermilk chicken sandwich wih and upgrade to the beet salad. Both were excellent! Hot and well seasoned.

    If you want a great glass of wine and something yummy to eat, you must stop at Caroline Cellars. Knowing that I was on a wine tour, I didn't want to fill up on food because I wanted to save more room for drinks. With that being said, we just shared an appetizer which was the arancini (handmade mozzarella stuffed risotto balls). This was my first time having arancini and I'm so glad I did. They were like little bites of Italian heaven. My husband also got the Butternut Squash Brie Soup and he enjoyed it as well. We were on a tour with a group and we were seated with another couple. The only downside was that all of our meals came out at separate times and the one guy almost didn't have enough time to finish his meal because it came out so late. The waitress was very apologetic, I just don't know if they are able to handle so much business at one time. It also took extremely long to get cashed out because they only have one card machine. The actual building itself is crafted with beautiful wood and it really gives you an authentic farm feel. My favorite wine was the rosé - need I say more?!

    Food 4/5 Service 3/5…read moreAmbiance 5/5 Food: I came here as a part of a work event. Our company had the whole event space booked. We had a set menu with three courses. Our first course was a green salad with currants. That was delicious actually. I really liked the currants. The next course was a choice of either chicken or squash (not many options!). I had chosen the squash but because of my food allergies they ended up giving me a mushroom dish. I love mushrooms so I didn't mind. That dish was actually quite tasty. The last course was a dessert which was a seasonal crumble with ice cream. They gave me a shaved coconut & berries dish due to my food allergies. The food was okay but my mind wasn't blown. I tried a bit of both the red wine & white wine but didn't like the taste. Then again I'm not much of wine drinker. Service: Some of the servers looked like the would rather be anywhere else than at the event. My server was great though, he was very attentive to me because of my food allergies. However, one of the servers dropped a carafe of boiling hot coffee on the ground. It hit me a bit, the guy next to me got some in his eye & another guy across from us was also hit. I was not happy about that. The server was really apologetic & went to get some ice. Took her forever but she finally found some & gave it to the people who were affected. I smelled like coffee after that. Ambiance: The vineyard is really lovely. We got there just before the sun started setting & it made for some amazing views. The dining hall is nice as well with it's high ceilings & floor to ceiling windows. The group washrooms were clean & pretty also. I'm not sure if I would come here again on my own. My impression of the food & service is tainted by the coffee being spilled on us. They were really apologetic & everything but sometimes first impressions are everything. I'm not often in the Niagara on the Lake area & if I were I wouldn't make a special trip to come here given my past experience here.

    Visited The Ravine Vineyard while in Niagara-on-the-Lake for lunch. The atmosphere strikes that…read moreperfect balance between upscale and relaxed -- it genuinely feels like a special venue without a hint of pretentiousness. The service has always been friendly and welcoming, giving off a true local, down-to-earth vibe that makes you want to linger. We've enjoyed a few lunches here, with dishes that are consistently well-prepared, flavorful, and thoughtfully presented, pairing beautifully with their wines. Overall, this is a great spot for locals and visitors alike, offering quality food, a beautiful setting, and an experience that's absolutely worth a return visit. Saluti
