WOW and THANK YOU! Over 500 people attended our Grand Opening making it a huge success. We are so thankful for the help of family, friends and some very dedicated members of our vineyard and bottling teams. We all worked to the last minute to make things as perfect as they could be (and except for a wee problem with the debit machine, it was perfect). We thank them as well as all of you who came out to try a taste or two or six and purchase our products; and a special thanks to Counselor Moffatt for his support, marketing efforts and for cutting the ribbon to open our doors.
Now that we are open, several ideas for events are being considered. We have been approached by a few organizations for tours or private functions. If you have an idea for your group, please give us a call and we can discuss the particulars and book a time. We are small – can seat about 30 people – but can expand using tents, etc if required.
The word about Jabulani is getting around and we have reached many people thanks to the articles in the EMC and Stittsville News. Look for us this Thursday on A Morning (A Channel in Ottawa) and remember to CELEBRATE ALWAYS!!!!

We have also been busy making new creations in the winery for your enjoyment this season. Something totally different in our product line this year; hard cider! Tom has created a delicious apple cider with subtle carbonation. Note that as it is carbonated, tastings for this product will be done at certain times otherwise the cider will go flat We have a new white – Proprietor’s Reserve – which is a blend of three grapes and yes, one of my new favourites, hence the name. We have a new release of Frontenac Gris; a bit different in taste from 2012, looking forward to seeing what you think of it. The vintage has changed from 2011 to 2012 for the Barrel Fermented Chardonnay but it still has that soft smooth butterscotch taste. New in reds, we have a Marquette Cab Merlot and something that you have all been asking for – Marquett...
