If you plan on going into wine country this is a vineyard you must check out. It's a smaller vineyard with one of the best wines produced. Since Ontario wines are younger, they may give you a headache especially if you plan on going wine tasting. However with Thirty Bench you won't run into that problem.
I personally only go to Thirty Bench and Marynissen Estates Winery.
