About Southbrook Vineyards

Southbrook Vineyards is the epitome and evolution of Marilyn and Bill Redelmeier’s love story with wine, the land, and all things “local.” The winery is situated on a 150-acre vineyard in the heart of the Niagara Peninsula wine region of Ontario, Canada. Southbrook produces organic and biodynamic wines that earn recognition, from critics and consumers alike, year after year.

From their purchase of the Niagara-on-the-Lake vineyard in 2005, the Redelmeiers committed their energies to sustainable viticulture. By 2008, they had created the first wine estate in Canada to earn both organic and biodynamic certification.

PIE Magazine available online through ITunes and in stores at Chapter and Indigo

Peller Estates, with founder Andrew Peller, deserving of his recognition as being one of the founding fathers of Ontario wine, set his“roots” excuse the pun in Niagara-on-the-Lake as early as 1969. Today, Peller is now Ontario’s second-largest wine company  and remains a family owned business producing award winning wines in a grand winery, with a showpiece barrel cellar and incredible Peller Estates Winery Restaurant, one of the leading dining destinations in the region. Executive celebrity Chef Jason Parsons at the helm of the restaurant  marries his inspired cuisine with the wines of Peller.

On to a red wine, our palates are primed and ready, and Peller delivers…

A big and bold red… the Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2010; recent recipient of the Gold Medal award for Best Cabernet Sauvignon at Cuvee Niagara 2012 Awards.Harvested both from estate owned vineyards and from long-standing growers within the Niagara Peninsula, this wine was aged for 12 months in 60% American and 40% French oak barrels. Take in the intoxicating aroma of black currant,black pepper, a touch of tobacco and leather. Juicy, with flavour of plum, blackberry and a hint of clove, lingering finish. BIG buy for $21.95.
