Niagara Grapevine


Throughout 2009, the Niagara Grapevine visted most Niagara wineries open to the public (77), sharing a guided tasting of recommended varietals & vintages, and sampling dining room, café, deck and / or patio fare. Below are NGV's 2009 favourites, but by no means are these selections and listings definitive rankings, and they are sure to change each year / vintage.     ( all lists alphabetical )
