Sprucewood Shores Estate Winery

Harrow, opened in 2005.  (2006 Pinot Gris & 2005 Meritage)

These six wineries represent the latest additions to VQA wines in Ontario.  Join us for this casual event as we taste our way through this great selection of wines.  Meet the winemakers and owners from these new wineries and hear about their beginnings, and taste what the future holds for them!

Our reception starts a little earlier than usual, so we can hold our annual general meeting at 6:15 PM, just before the tasting starts.  Please attend to hear the annual financial report, and to vote in our 2008 Board of Directors.
