Wending Home

Wending Home Estate Vineyards & Winery is located in the Niagara Peninsula of Ontario, farming the Creek Shores and Twenty Mile Bench sub-appellations. Winemaker Ron Giesbrecht works with old estate vines planted in the mid-1990s alongside fruit sourced from the Cuesta vineyard on the Twenty Mile Bench, farmed by the Wismer brothers.

The estate's approach favours slow, purposeful ageing: the Chardonnay spends 18 months on lees in seasoned French oak; the Gamay is aged 18 to 20 months in older neutral barrels; the 'Up Above' Pinot Noir draws from 25-year-old vines. The wines have earned multiple Gold and Silver medals at the Ontario Wine Awards and WineAlign National Wine Awards.
