Niagara Landing Wine Cellars
|
|
You could say it was inevitable that they start a winery. After all, this prime grape growing acreage has been in the Smith family for three generations. But, what was once a two acre vineyard back in 1932 is now 150 acres. With the opening of Niagara Landing Wine Cellars, Peter and Nancy Smith….along with two other couples, Mike & Jackie Connolly and Gary & Lori Hoover…now operate the first winery in Niagara County to open to the public in 20 years. The winery location, at the base of the Niagara Escarpment in the Niagara County town of Lockport, is very well suited for what they do there, of course. The micro-climate is perfect for growing premium grapes. And, most of the wine produced by Niagara Landing Wine Cellars comes from those surrounding vineyards.
Niagara Landing Wine Cellars produces thirteen different wines….including Pinot Noir, Merlot, Cambria Red, Chardonnay, Blue Marlin Splash, Cambria White, Captain's Choice, Boxer Blush, Stearman Steuban, Misty Niagara, Brut Champagne, Port, and coming this Spring...Red Riesling.
