Stoney Ridge Estate Winery
Tasting fee: $30
Owned by radio and television sports broadcasting personality Bob McCown, Stoney Ridge has charmed customers for over 30 years. They produce a wide range of premium VQA wines, as well as celebrity brands including The Tragically Hip and Doug Gilmour. The experience is complemented by several unique offerings, including lush sprawling gardens, outdoor patios, and the Cheese Cellar boutique, which carries over 25 different local artisanal cheeses.
The winery was founded by Jim Warren in 1985, who held the position of President and Winemaker until 1999 The original location of the winery was on Ridge Road in Stoney. Stoney Ridge moved to its present location in Vineland , Ontario in 1995. The location was chosen based on its position on the Wine Route, the availability of land for planting Pinot Noir grapes (the McGrade Vineyard, named after the original owner of the property), and the general availability of the property.
In 2013, one of Canada‚s best known radio and television personalities became the new owner of Stoney Ridge Winery Bob McCowan. The winery began small, producing only 500 cases four years later the winery was producing 4,000 cases and has continued to grow.
Producing award wining wines developing a reputation for having unique and exotic wines that all possessed the inimitable style that was a signature of winemaker Jim Warren. By 2012 the winery was producing 40,000 cases. The Stoney Ridge philosophy is that wine should not be considered as an accompaniment to a meal but rather an integral part of a fine meal.
Chief Winemaker:Jeff Innes, Founding Winemaker: Jim Warren
Philosophy: Every winery is dependant on two key factors that contribute to its success. Firstly, the grapes used must be of the highest quality, produced from vineyards that have a terroir that reflects the unique character of the Niagara Peninsula , and thus provide a window through which to experience the soil and climate of the region. The next crucial element lies in the skills of the vintner, who through their experience, innovation and natural talent, can deliver the juice that becomes a wine which captures the essence of the region, while exhibiting the classic characteristics that have made the grape variety famous for centuries.
The Challenge International du Vin the biggest French International Wines competition and one of the most famous wine events awarded a silver medal to Stoney Ridge for their Late Harvest Vidal 99
