On my way to the airport (heading to Umbria, Italy) I stopped off at the Mike Weir Winery Grand Opening. Finally, Mike has himself a winery to call his own - this "winery" was beginning to seem like that family member that everyone has, you know the one: they never leave the house to find their own way in the world ... over the past decade this "winery" has been linked with Creekside and Chateau des Charmes - and I am sure there were others playing host to barrels and tanks along the way. But now Mike Weir has a new home, at the old EastDell location - and in truth its a beauty ... let's take a look - and if you're in the area, stop by and be impressed:
(4041 Locust Lane - Beamsville, Ontario: Open 7 days a week from 11am-5pm)
The New Mike Weir Winery located at the old EastDell property |
For those that remember the property, the view is still something to behold and now it is even more open and visible from the moment you walk in the door |
Exclusive wines will be available - another reason to visit |
With wines on tap behind the bar ... will this trend take off - is Ontario ready for wine-on-tap? |
Mike Weir was in attendance to meet and greet with those who came to finally see his new home. |
Sharing a Glass with Mike ... Mike & Mike's Excelllent Adventure (you caption this one) This is just proof that I was there - can you tell I was getting ready to board a plane in 4 hours? |
