Trip Highlights

Konzelmann Estates Winery

Picture
Picture
Our first stop will be the very elegant Konzelmann Estates Winery, one of the very few lakefront wineries in Niagara-On-The-Lake. 

We will get a guided tour of the vineyards followed by a tasting of 4 wines including Konzelmann's famous icewine.  Konzelmann does have bragging rights because it was the first ever Canadian winery to be selected in Wine Spectator's "Top 100" with its vidal icewine.

Reif Estates Winery

Picture
Following our visit to Konzelmann, we will move on to Reif Estates. 

The Reif family tradition of winemaking began nearly half a millennium ago in the small winemaking town of Neustadt, in Germany. 

In 1977,  founder Ewald Reif purchased a plot of land on the fertile banks of the Niagara River. And the rest as they say is history. To acknowledge Reif's contributions to wine making in the Niagara region, in 2010 Klaus W. Reif received a Lifetime achievement award from the Ontario Wine Society.

We will have a private tasting of 3 wines paired with some wonderful cheeses selected to ideally complement their wines. 

Village of  Niagara-On-The-Lake

After our wine tasting sessions, we will now proceed to the downtown area of Niagara-On-The-Lake. 

You will have some free time to explore the quaint shops & boutiques. 

Prince Of Wales Hotel

Picture

Having done our browsing, we will gather for a cocktail reception at the Prince of Wales.  The perfect way to continue your social networking over a nice cocktail or, should I say it, another glass of wine? A cash bar will be available.

We will finish off our day with a sumptuous high tea. We will be in our own private ballroom and enjoy a traditional English high tea consisting of  assorted finger sandwiches, assorted tea pastries, scones with plump Jasmine Tea Infused Sultana Raisins, Greaves Niagara Preserves and Devonshire Cream.
