We had a great wine tasting experience with Aedan taking us through the Ice Wines we selected. He was most helpful and we would have loved to have bought more, but being from Australia and returning there next month there is only so much we can drink before going home. We will certainly research this product back home, and hopefully we will become lifelong supporters and advocates for the product in South Australia. Well done Aedan you really inspired us. Also the tasting room was so good!!

As part of a local multi vineyard ticket event we stopped at Inniskillin. Mamiko graciously served us a nacho cheese tostada paired with a Shiraz-Cabernet. Sara, one of the managers stopped by to chat. Beautiful, spacious seating area. Well done. Thanks

My visit was to purchase different ice wines as gifts.
A customer service representative referred me to Yumiko and she went out of her way to stop what she was doing and make beautiful displays, combining the individual ice wines that I bought. The ice wine by itself is great but the extra care that Yumiko put into it, made each gift special.
Thank you.

To start off, I'd like to say I normally have a good experience at Inniskillen Winery and have generally experienced good customer service. However, I wanted to bring attention to the terrible customer service received today during a scheduled wine tasting. After waiting in line for almost half hour (even though we had a scheduled tasting at 3:00pm), none of the servers acknowledged our presence as we waited by the hostess table. When we eventually got seated we ordered one flight and one glass of ice wine. We waited, and waited, and noticed that the two groups that were seated after us received their wine and food.
We continued waiting and still nothing came. Tried to get the attention of the server, and unfortunately after waiting 40 minutes with no acknowledgment from the server about our drinks, we got fed up and decided to leave.
First off, with only 6 tables occupied, and four servers, it's unreasonable to have a customer wait 40 minutes for 1 flight of wine and 1 glass of wine, especially when you can see at least two of the servers chatting by the bar and refusing to be attentive to customers.
I hope Inniskillen can take this feedback to help improve the customer experience for future patrons. Hoping our future visits won't be the same as today.

We visited Inniskillin for a wine tasting and were so impressed with the winery itself, service that was provided and the wine. THANK YOU to our guide Sophie for the excellent service she provided to us - she is very knowledgable, enthusiastic and sold us on some new wines. Having visited four wineries on Sunday I will share that this was a top notch winery who puts the visitor foremost in their service. We will definitely return next year and hopefully learn more from Sophie!,

Sylvie was our sommelier for taste the season at Inniskillin. She was an absolute delight. After the wine pairing, she gave our family a little history on the winery and laughed at my father’s horrible jokes. The wine and food were delicious as well but Sylvie made the experience memorable. Thank you Sylvie!

It took about an hour to bike north on the Niagara Parkway from the train station. I was seated on the outdoor canopied eating area almost immediately. The menu only offered an assortment of sandwiches and charcouterie plates. I was a little disappointed with the brisket I ordered. The meat was too chewy and the side order of fries was mainly comprised of stubby burnt bits.
Leaving my table unrestored, I ventured to the wine stalls. Simie was at the tasting area. It was the early days of the vaccine passport and I didn't have have my documents handy. However, she allowed me to bring my glass of Viognier to sample outside. She was very knowledge about the grapes and clarified that Botrytis Affected wasn't the same as Sauternes, since it only was in the upper area of the vines and not part of the soil. In Sauternes, it was all around the Terroir. Simie also informed me of why my favourite Marechal Foch label was discontinued several yearts ago. I petitioned that they should consider returning it for a limited run. Learning that I was biking back, Simie carefully placed my two Viognier bottles in bubble wrap. The animated conversation and her attentiveness improved my overall rating by two notches!

Inniskillin Winery is a beautiful, big winery that I can recommend. We had a very nice tasting with a staff that was very helpful. The grounds are nice with a place to have a glass and some meat & cheese. A very good Cab Franc and Sauvignon Blanc were the stars of the tasting with the Merlot also very good. Stick with the Discovery Series wines. Fair prices.

Dropped by the Inniskilin winery without reservation at noon and got a great table (outside of course because of Covid). Sylvie was our server and she was great. We did not want a tasting, so she recommended a bottle of Rose. Great price for a full bottle...
We had sandwich which were good but nothing special. As we were sipping our wine, a girl on violin and a guy on a guitar started playing.... they were good so we stayed and ordered a charcuterie board which was really good. Enjoyed a two hour lunch here. 😋

Hello. How do you book a tasting online? I checked out their website but cannot find a page for bookings. I want to try their ice wine....

Hello,
There is not need for two people to book just walk in between 10-6 pm daily and you can choose from a range of different tasting and decide which one is more suitable for you.

Hi! We're going to be traveling with 2 children (ages 12 and 7). Would they be able to come on the tour? Or is it adults only?

If you are doing your own tour, I would say yes no problem. If you are doing a bus tour, I have no idea if kids are allowed on the bus. I hope you have a great trip.
