ACCOLADES
Risk taking. So f-ing clean and pure.
John Szabo, MS
In musical terms, [Mackenzie] could be considered the Coltrane of winemaking, a disruptor of rules and exploring the outer edges of normalcy.
Rick VanSickle
Wine made in miniscule quantities by passionate, risk-taking people.

A RESPECT FOR SITE
If you want to make really great wine that reflects where it comes from, you have to start with fruit that’s amazing. We make wines from our estate PEC fruit as well as from like-minded growers from either side of Lake Ontario.
NO ADDITIONS, NO SUBTRACTIONS
“Great wines are not simple — the aromatics are complex, changing and opening with time, while the palate is layered, flavours are plentiful and finish long.”
— Mackenzie Brisbois
ORANGE WINES: FLAVOUR & TEXTURE
Fermenting whites on skins from 2 weeks to 1 year can create beautiful texture, adding tannin and augmenting flavour. It’s a theme covered in Simon J Woolf’s book about Orange Wine: Amber Revolution. We are also one of only three Canadian wineries to be featured!
