Vineland Estates 2009 Sauvignon Blanc

This Sauvignon Blanc has a lot going on in the glass: lemon, melon, exotic fruit and mineral notes combine to make this a real stand out, especially for the price ... combine that fruit with some great acid balance and you've got yourself a real palate pl ...

Vineland Estates 2009 Riesling - St. Urban

There are some producers in Niagara that really know how to push the right Riesling buttons - who know how to walk that fine line between the racy and the sweet and bring it all together ... Vineland continues to show that it is a leader in this category. ...

Vineland Estates 2009 Riesling - Semi-Dry

I`ve tried some great Rieslings from 2009, it was a great Riesling year, plenty of plumped up acidity, and lots of lovely fruit, everything a Riesling lover enjoys. Brian Schmidt, winemaker for Vineland, seems to be able to coax Riesling grapes to submit ...

Vineland Estates 2009 Riesling - Dry

I've been waiting to try this yet-to-be-released Riesling for some time, at least since trying the semi-dry and the St. Urban Riesling from the same year ... I was finally secreted a bottle by the winemaker himself - and I can definitely tell you the wine ...

Vineland Estates 2009 Pinot Meunier

I believe that Vineland is trying to corner the market on Pinot Meunier in Niagara. It's very interesting to see this third (and relatively minor) grape of Champagne in a stand alone wine. Vineland currently has 8 acres of the stuff growing in their vin ...

Vineland Estates 2009 Elevation Cabernet

“I think you’re gonna like this one,” said Dave as he poured me the last of the 3 wines Vineland had on for tasting during the New Vintages Tailgate Party, "you’re a Cab Franc slut.” Man does he have me pegged but boy was he right. There is no way you c ...

Vineland Estates 2009 Chardonnay

"For this price it's gotta be unoaked," I say to myself as I'm looking at the wine list at the tasting bar at Vineland Estates ... but it's the smell and flavours that gives it away completely: a nose of lime, white peach and mineral with a taste that mix ...

Vineland Estates 2008 Riesling Method Cuvee Close

Some say that if a wine's aromas and flavours don't come together then you're stuck with an unbalanced wine. I think you end up with something more interesting, and in turn makes you think. The nose of this bubbly has hints of petrol, lemon meringue pie ...

Vineland Estates 2008 Chardonnay

Simple is sometimes the best way to enjoy something, and this simple Chardonnay from Vineland offers up an easy to distinguish nose and lovely palate of flavours without breaking the bank. Simple starts on the nose, with peach and pear – big on the pear; ...

Vineland Estates 2008 Cabernet Franc

The nose is blackberry and tobacco - inviting but not "knock your socks off powerful", on the palate it delivers a wallop with black currant, tobacco, hints of black raspberry along with mocha /coffee notes on the finish … another winner in the Franc depa ...

Vineland Estates 2007 Riesling - Semi-Dry

Brian Schmidt is the 6th Beatle! Well I figure if somebody is already claiming 5th Beatle status, Brian should apply for 6th. Brian Schmidt is the winemaker of Vineland and when sampling this wine and later writing this review, I had the song “Fool on t ...

Vineland Estates 2007 Merlot

Ontario Merlot always takes a little time to come around (even those aged minimally in oak - this one: 4 months), which is probably the reason why Vineland still has this wine on their shelves at the boutique; but now it's starting to turn the corner and ...

Vineland Estates 2007 Elevation Cabernet

A 70/30 blend of the Cabernet family father and son duo: Franc and Sauvignon - the fruit sourced from the highest point on the Vineland property (hence the name elevation). The nose and palate are in unison here, with sour and black cherry, vanilla, cinn ...

Vineland Estates 2007 Chenin Blanc Late Harvest

Winemaker Brian Schmidt unveiled this wine during the IRONic CHEF 2008 dinner as the dessert wine, and it’s lovely; subtle and sophisticated, not the sweetie you’d expect. The nose is fresh and floral with pineapple and crisp pear smells, while the palat ...

Vineland Estates 2007 Cabernet Franc Reserve

The Chardonnay-ophiles and the Riesling-geeks can say what they like, but for my money Cabernet Franc is Ontario's grape to win or lose with, and after tasting this one, and what winemaker Brian Schmidt (and others) can do year-after-year with this grape ...

Vineland Estates 2007 Cabernet Franc

For those of you who were unimpressed with the 2006 version of this LCBO staple (because you fell in love with the ’05 and the ’06 was no ’05), can now come back to the fold. The 2007 version is on the shelf and it’s beautiful and better then ever. You’ ...
