Wineries

Had a great time with my daughter, sister, sister in law, and sons girlfriend. Awesome pizzas (4) cheese and meat platters (2) AND OF COURSE.......GREAT WINE

Great wine, awesome employees and tasty food.

Very cute winery. Clean and great atmosphere plus they also have a food menu. We went to Mystery Cave then stopped here after for wine tasting and food. Only downfall was our waitress was very slow and hardly checked in on us (I wanted to order wine and more food). It wasn’t busy so there wasn’t a reason she should be so slow. Also the food wasn’t great and lacked flavor.

Best Fruit Wine I have had in along time. Would buy from them again.

Beautiful! Absolutely wonderful!

Amazing wines! Fontennac Blanc is a must try

Good wine and entertainment.

Great selection and good staff. Lots of room outside

We came last year, for a get away. We did a wine tasting and the service here was wonderful, the lady was so nice and helpful! The wine was amazing and we loved! Can't wait to come back.

Lovely place. Warm friendly people.

Extremely knowledgeable, fantastic choices, and a pleasant shopping experience.

Top notch product selection (best wine selection in the St. Albert EASILY), the most knowledgeable staff I've ever seen, and three cute doggies!

Great selection & knowledgeable staff. Would try here for unique beer and cider. Love it.

We had a great experience here. I purchased a winery tour from Groupon, they do tours even through the winter. Winter tours involve a complete explanation of the wine making process from picking the fruit to bottling the wine. Each step and the tools involved are explained along the way. There is a very organic flow of how the presentation comes together, like you're being sped through the entire process, which takes months. The winter tour also goes into depth over the science behind how the wine comes together, the choices they made as a "cottage winery" and his they came to produce such a nice product. They will only produce 4 wines in as many bottles as the harvested fruit will make, they have to use whatever they can grow on their land and they keep all of their ingredients and processes as simple as possible to retain the flavor of the fruit in their wines. Seems simple but it's very cleverly thought out in its own complicated way. I'd any part of their process changed they wouldn't be able to make the wines they make, it's that simple. "The Barb" is a rhubarb red wine. Very light in body and flavorful. The colour resembles a rosé, it has a light finish with the slight bitterness of rhubarb on the tongue. That was our first sample. "The Ruby" is a rhubarb strawberry red that feels very substantial. Strawberry smells fill the room when you're holding a glass and there's a crisp bite to this wine with a sweet strawberry finish. It leaves you wanting another sip, making this wine an insidious guest at your next party that wants to stay and cause trouble ;). This was my favorite. "The Other Red" is made with raspberry. I'm not a huge fan of sour tastes, this one was a bit tart, has strong body and lots of interesting flavours. After talking with Rick, the idea of adding a wine in oak barrels, or even better in of oak whiskey barrels, would transform this wine (an idea they are toying with) but it was a bit too sour for me. "The Jewel" is a soon-to-be-released fortified wine coming out in May 2018 that has me very excited. I want able to taste that one yet because it's still in production. You are able to buy directly from Barr Estate, just call or text if you want one or two bottles and they'll accommodate you. There have been some events held on their grounds, which would make for a very interesting reception venue, unlimited boutique wines made 100 feet away? Heck yeah. Go for the Groupon, get the tour. Warm weather tours involve seeing the orchards, sheep, Alpaca, the dogs and the beautiful rustic farm. Cherry blossoms come out for a week, book your tour then and you'll get an unforgettable stroll through all the cherry trees with white fragrant flowers... Seriously, they run groupons all year long for the tours, winter groups are usually under 5 or 6 people, summer tours are 20+.

Fun place for all ages.

Excellent store. There's always a knowledgeable staff member on hand to help with wine selections. Store carries a great "World of Beers" wall as well with a good selection. I dropped the rating by one star due to the fact they don't carry all the wine selections available in some of their Calgary stores, a trip from Airdrie to Calgary should not be necessary for a specific product to be purchased.

Great service.
