All the tasting tours I've been on have been lead by friendly staff who really appreciate their work.

A beautiful winery in Stouffville. Went here for a wine tasting experience and we drove from…read moreScarborough - the experience was so worth the drive. We got four different type of wine - please make sure you select their ice wine and especially the red ice wine from the list coz that's a rare one and it tastes so good. They have a lot of wines that have won awards in competitions. Moon who was our server explained everything to us in so much detail we were really impressed. We also got the charcuterie board with their wine tasting experience and it was so well done. The ice jelly was sweet and slightly spicy and paired perfectly with the crackers and cheese. Fruits were fresh. You can enjoy sitting in the patio or inside - we chose inside and the interior had a nice rustic charm. Also a great place for a wedding.

The grounds are beautiful, great place for a winery, to take pictures and host an event. Parking is limited, but it works. The main building had the wine stating and they also serve snacks and small bites which is a plus when tasting wines. I can definitely picture coming here to enjoy a tasting and having so small bites. A huge plus is it being pet friendly. I love being able to enjoy this place with my little fluff!

Oh. My. Goodness. I am RAVING about this place. I went on a mother daughter date with my mum…read more We got the French Onion Soup, and the Classic Fondue. It was the perfect amount of food and it was incredible. I would also recommend the Speak Mimosa I would recommend making a reservation after 7pm, just to be safe. The waitress was friendly, checked in, but didn't linger. I've been to the Melting Pot before - and it does NOT compare. It was priced as expected - it's not a fast food restaurant and it's worth every dollar. (Two soups, the classic fondue, two drinks and tips was just shy of $100). I've attached a poorly taken photo - we were too excited to eat it to get a picture in time.

We had a beautiful time at this winery in Stouffville!…read more Such a random location but a real gem. The winery grounds are beautiful, there's an amazing patio wrapped around the building with stunning views of the winery. You truly feel like you're in wine country or even in the Italian countryside when you're here. We wanted to do a tasting and we were told to go find a seat outside and someone would be assisting us. We noticed that there was a separate area for people who pre-reserved lunch. I think it's a pre-set menu and it's catered by the McEwan company. The food coming out looked really tasty! We asked if they had a food menu as we were looking for a charcuterie board or something to snack on while tasting the wine, however they do not have a food menu unless you reserve in advance. Although this was a bit of a bummer, the server told us she would bring us some snacks for the wine tasting. As the lunch seating was taking place, the servers were quite busy however our server apologized for the wait and was really nice. We each had the 4 wine tasting flights and were able to choose 4 wines from their extensive list. I tried their sparkling wine, rose, a red and a white and they were pleasant but not the most amazing wines I've ever had. I liked the flavour profile of the rose and the sparkling was really light and crisp. The white and red were just OK for me. The server was knowledgeable and helped to offer suggestions based on my preferences. As promised, she also brought us some bowls with chips, nuts and dried fruit, and tarali. These were great for munching on as well as palate cleansers between the wines. I particularly enjoyed the ambiance of this winery. On a beautiful breezy summer day, it was absolute heaven sitting out on the patio and sampling some tasty wines. I would love to come for a meal one day however they only serve lunch at this time. We even had the owner come over and chat with us for a while to make sure we were enjoying our time. The wines in the retail portion of the winery are super reasonable, I don't think any wines were over $20. This is a nice way to support local business without breaking the bank. Overall this is a wonderful way to spend an hour or so. The flight of wine was only $10 and the wines are also inexpensive to purchase so this makes for an affordable afternoon out. I loved the views and European feel of the winery; it truly made me feel like I was far away without having to step on a plane!

On a cold but wonderfully sunny afternoon, we chose to arrange a wine tour at Magnotta Winery. We…read morewere fortunate enough to be led by the amazingly kind and incredibly knowledgeable Michael Ber, Assistant Manager of Retail and Events. The tour was fantastic for SO many reasons... Upon our arrival we were led to the beautiful and bright Awards room, housing the endless awards won by Magnotta for wine and spirits at events all over the continent and beyond. Michael asked questions to narrow down our likes and dislikes, the preliminary to our wine tasting. More about that later :) Our first stop was an information-filled walk-through of the machinery area where the wines are produced and bottled. From there we continued into the basement's Barrel Room where hundreds and hundreds of barrels of wine are stored. Old winemaking machinery added perfectly to the decor, creating an almost museum-like element. The decor all throughout the winery is old-world Italian style which created an authentic, peaceful mood from one space to the next. Once the tour was over, we were invited back into the Awards Room for the fun part... the wine tasting portion of the tour. It was then that each of us was given our personally curated flights consisting of 3 wines to try, each specific to our indicated preferences. We also opted for the complementing charcuterie board and focaccia bread (at a low additional cost) that truly brought out some of the more complex flavors of the wines being sampled. I would recommend this winery and wine tour for anyone who wants to fine tune their wine preferences and flavor profiles. We were never rushed, all questions were answered, and we left far more educated about the world of wine than we ever could have expected! It was a wonderful way to spend an afternoon and a great reason to indulge in some fantastic wine... not like anyone needs a reason for that!!! Pros: - Location (easy-to find industrial area near major highways) + free parking - Staff (professional & friendly) - Ambiance/Decor - Selection of wines - Taste of wines & food - Prices (of wines, tour & food) Cons: - None

I never knew this Winery was close to home! Lucky enough to do a small tour via a meetup group, we…read moregot to see the distillery, the barrels (I swear that room looks like some Freemason secret society room!) and have some wine tastings with chocolate. We even tried one if their Vidal Ice Wines - oh my - how absolutely delicious! The staff are all friendly and can direct you to some great wines if you ask. They do not sell at the LCBO so the prices are about 40% cheaper than if they did. They have a great variety, including some beers (they have a brewery on deck). Definitely be back as I saw quite a few interesting wines. They even have their own vodka and brandy.

We were here for the Richmond Hill doors open 2026. They offered us a tour in the field and shared…read morethe Mead making process. The most amazing part was seeing the bees closely. And the staff also explained how the bees work/Queen's tasks, and so on. We had a chance to touch the bees with our hands, but I was a bit scared to touch them. The staff also showed us the Queen Bee that they marked a sign Bright Blue on the back. We moved to another house for the mead process. This was the first time that I known of honey wine. It's almost the same as the wine produced process, just this time was coming from Honey. Before we stepped out, there is a gift shop that we could purchase some honey products.

Cozy mead tasting on a rainy afternoon…read more Atmosphere: There was a small bar/farm store you enter at the front with some picnic tables outside. As it had rained all afternoon, we opted to sit at the bar for the mead tasting, which was cozy and seated 4 at the bar and another 2 at a smaller round table close to the entrance. The store had a variety of honey and beeswax products, mead, and even cheesecakes that were frozen. Experience: This was our first mead tasting and we were provided recommendations to try from their menu. We circled the choices we wanted to try and then they were quickly poured and carefully labelled and numbered for us to identify. The variety was quite good, with some tasting more fruity and others with a stronger honey taste. Service: The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable, and were good at communicating with each other (as one was taking over for another and had to ensure people were paid up). Lovely mead tasting and would revisit for the live music performances on Sundays!

My friend was excited to visit this farm for the first time to view the sunflowers, even though it…read morewas a bit late in the season. I have to say, it was very far, but once we reached the outer skirts of Mississauga into Milton, I found the drive very peaceful. The farm is on 165 acres of escarpment countryside, and the current admission is $12/per person over the age of 5 years old. There were plenty of parking spots on the grassy areas, and washrooms are available. Inside the main building is a winery and shop that sells homemade goodies, including tarts, pies, jams, drinks, fresh fruits ... but on the pricey side! I personally can't imagine paying $18.50 for a pie made with lard. A bbq lunch is available on weekends. Note that you can't bring outside food onto the grounds. We brought a lunch but ended up tailgating. We missed the berry picking season (sold by weight), but I was pleasantly surprised to see many chickens running around right at my feet! The baby goats were adorable. They also had pigs, ducks, sheep, and other animals. There were plenty of beautiful dahlias ($2 each), but some of the sunflowers were wilting. In hindsight, early August would have been ideal. We came on a cloudy day but still captured some nice photos. We had an enjoyable afternoon.
