Last Sunday I spent the day in Niagara s wine country on an iYellow Wine Tour. iYellow Wine Club  is a social wine club based in Toronto with over 8,000 members that hosts regular wine events, wine tours, and wine school classes to help members build wine confidence.
I have never been to a winery or vineyard and have always imagined the experience to be stuffy and snobby because people that drink wine are stuffy and snobby, right? Wrong! The iYellow tour was a great group of folks with a wide range of experience and knowledge when it came to wine. We were encouraged to taste lots and determine what we did and didn t like in order to learn a bit more about wine making and most importantly, wine drinking.
Our first stop was at Vinelands Winery where we tried a delicious sparkling wine, an unoaked chardonnay (one of my personal favourites), a Pinot Blanc, a Riesling (everyone cheap airline tickets to europe else s favourite cheap airline tickets to europe at Vinelands), and a Cabernet Merlot (another favourite).
In terms of volume cheap airline tickets to europe of wine consumption, Vinelands was probably our favourite (which you can probably tell from this photo). I wasn t a big fan of the Riesling cheap airline tickets to europe or the Cab Merlot like everyone else, but I had my own fair share of the unoaked chardonnay and pinot blanc. Jordan cheap airline tickets to europe loved the Cab Merlot and Riesling.
Next top: Chateau des Charmes. This winery is actually a gorgeous castle-like building with a water fountain in front, but I m not a photographer so this is the photo I got. Jordan got a great photo in front of the water fountain and it looks like he s chugging his bottle of wine. Well, you can take the boy out of Oshawa but you can t take the Oshawa out of the boy, right?
This is Michele Bosc. Her family owns Chateau des Charmes and she heads up all of the marketing and social cheap airline tickets to europe media initiatives for the winery. Chateau des Charmes has a monthly wine club and hosts virtual wine tastings on their Facebook page , which I think is pretty awesome!
I would love to tell you which wines we tasted at Chateau des Charmes but I wasn t even able to keep up at this point. We tried some delicious ice wines, a Chardonnay, a Riesling, an Equuleus, and a few more that I can t remember.
Our last stop of the day was at my Southbrook Wineries which quickly became my favourite. The building was designed by a famous architect and while I loved the older feelings of both Vinelands and Chateau des Charmes, there was just such great energy at Southbrook it was an infectiously positive feeling.
Organic means using natural resources in farming in order to use less water, less energy and avoid the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizer. Biodynamic certification relies on balancing the vineyard s soil, plants, and animals to grow grapes using natural composts, herbal teas, and strangely enough, cheap airline tickets to europe farming following the lunar cycles.I generally don t care if my wine is organic, biodynamic, radioactive, or whatever, but the wine at Southbrooks tasted so clean . Jordan fell in love with the Cabernet Merlot and myself with the Whimsy Chardonnay.
The founder Angela and her team made sure we were all taken care of and having fun on our tour. They were able to answer any questions we had and their passion for wines and the Niagara region in particular was obvious.
