Established in 1971 on a historic Mennonite property, Vineland Estates Winery is the elder statesperson of Niagara viticulture. Tours of the winery, set in repurposed stone buildings, make for a lovely afternoon. Come early for lunch in its renovated 1845 farmhouse – be sure to order a glass of Riesling, its shining star.
