Winemaker's Dinners

A winemaker's dinner is a unique experience to dine with a winemaker who has crafted the wines that have been matched with the menu.

During your meal, the winemaker will present the wines paired with each course, give insight about the winery, the wine style and personal anecdotes making the experience personal, enlightening and educational for our guests.

Past winemaker's dinners have featured:

Dining with Winemakers @ Noon
Featuring Niagara & Prince Edward County wineries, guests met winemakers & winery owners who shared stories & secrets about their winery, their vineyard & their wines. Each event was a fascinating experience featuring wines from an established winery, an up and coming winery & a new winery in Ontario's wine regions.
