IT'S ABOUT GOING THE EXTRA MILE.
Upscale never tasted so down to earth.
Although Queenston Mile is our newest winery, we're anything but new to wine. Our small, dedicated team has spent the past twenty years honing their craft at our 50-acre vineyard in St. David's Bench.
Formed when glaciers carved out the Niagara Escarpment, the Bench tends to be slightly warmer during the late season when the grapes are ripening. Combined with an early spring warming, this results in a unique growing season that ensures each of our seven varietals is brimming with personality.
It's taken two decades to fully appreciate what makes our site so unique. You can't hurry great wine, though. And for us, it's the constant searching and experimenting that makes the journey so rewarding.
