9. Konzelmann Estate Winery

The landscape of this Niagara on the Lake wineries is the reason for its various mesoclimates. Even a subtle change in the climate, even around a single vineyard, can be crucial for growing trends in viticulture.  

It brings changing effects to the flavour of the grapes and the wines. Winemakers are aware of and examine the impact climatic patterns can have on their vineyards.

A fourth-generation winemaker Herbert Konzelmann arrived in Niagara on the lake in 1984 from Stuttgart, Germany. It has a very knowledgeable winery host.

He came with design and aimed to establish a Canadian winery in his family’s name. The huge factor for selecting Niagara on the lake, specifically on the shore of Lake Ontario, was the mesoclimate suitable for the Konzelmann wines.

Since it is enormous and deep, the lake has a moderate effect on vineyard temperatures near the shore. The growing season is extended into autumn since the fall allows the grape to grow into a more natural sweet taste.

In addition to the moisture and heavy dew in the lakeshore vineyards, the morning mist is suitable for Konzelmann wines and gives them a fine and fruity taste.
