Hillier Creek Estates

Hillier Creek Estates winery is located in scenic Prince Edward County, Ontario's latest designated wine region.
Lisa Morrissey and her husband just bought Hillier Creek Winery - 2021 South-west of the village of Hillier, on Highway 33 (the Loyalist Parkway), is Hillier Creek Estates.
First planted in 2002, the estate has 25,000 plants (Pinot Noir, Gamay, Chardonnay and Riesling) on 30 acres. A distinguishing feature of the vineyard is that a creek (of which there are few in the County because of the limestone base) runs through the property. The winery is owned by Kemp Stewart.
Kemp Stewart is a retired Senior Logistics Officer with 35 years of military service. His wife, Dr. Amber Stewart, is a family physician, emergency physician and coroner working in Picton.
The barn, now used as the winery, cellar, and tasting room, outdates is estimated to be over 150 years old, the original barn was built directly on the ground. After its purchase by the current owners, it was necessary to raise the barn in order to complete renovation and restoration. A cribbing system was used to hold and suspend the barn, alternating timbers four inches at a time. Upon raising the barn, it was discovered that there were two underground streams, which necessitated the building of a 9000-gallon cistern below the patio.
The finished foundation stabilized the structure in 2008, and the barn was completed in 2009.The estate has 50 acres; 30 of which are planted with Gamay, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Riesling, and Vidal. Production (2010) 3000-4000 cases with plans to expand over the next few years. Signature wines are Chardonnay and Pinot Noir
