Soooo, which wineries have you gone to and which ones were meh/wow?
Went to Trius, Pondview and Frog Pond. I found the best and worst at Trius, with the other two offering middling to quite good. What I found quite surprising was the wines I ended up liking ran completely counter to my usual tastes.
The best was the Trius Vidal ice wine, i.e. their basic ice wine variety. Quite nice. I also tried their reds and found one of them, the Merlot I think, to be quite disappointing. Both the Trius Red and their East Block Cabernet Sauvignon took time to grow on me.
Pondview offered the best white of the three. Their basic Riesling was superb. My one regret here was not buying a bottle. 😢 Their "Harmony Red" was also quite nice.
Frog Pond was unremarkable except for their Cabernet Sauvignon ice wine. We liked it so much, we bought a bottle along with the Trius ice wine.
The final set of wines we bought was not in NOTL at all. Rather we took advantage of the trip home to stop by the Prince Edward County area and stock up at one of our favorites: Sandbanks Winery.
