A second-generation, family-owned, small boutique winery located on the renowned Beamsville Bench of the Niagara Peninsula. Owned by Edward Zaski & Ania de Duleba (Krystyna). Our little parcel of south-facing land hangs over the hillside edges of the Bench, and provides an ideal environment for cool climate wine growing.
There is a view of Lake Ontario. Krystyna is an artist first, and former art director herself for Harlequin books, Krystyna's first passion is painting, but indulging her husband's passion for winemaking has meant that her painting studio down the hill sees a lot less of her than the vineyards surrounding it.
The story goes that in the early to mid 1900‚s, two feuding Mennonite churches in the area had a dispute when the less conservative congregation acquired a pipe organ, considered verboten by the more strict church. The members of the conservative church conspired to steal the organ, which they subsequently loaded onto a wagon and destroyed by dumping it down a creed embankment ‚ hence the birth of the ORGANized crime brand.
We operate a craftsman-styled winery. We have very little automation in our facility. From vineyard to barrel, all of our wines are genuinely handcrafted. We prefer to be hands-on throughout the process, as this is where the pure art of winemaking truly thrives.
