Wineries

Amazing wines! Fontennac Blanc is a must try

This is a fabulous place. Beautiful Abbey and the gift shops are great. Happened to be a home and garden show going on too and that was really fun as well.

the summer concert series is a family-friendly great time. In the staff is fabulous they always have great food truck

Stop in for a rasting on my visit to the north and glad that I did. The wine tenders, Megan and Michael, were both very pleasant and knowledgeable of their products. Myself, I prefer reds and their selection was great. I would suggest if you are in the area, you have to include this in your things to do.

Big section of wine and beer if you want something special they got it.

Good service

"The" place to go for the good stuff! Fantastic selection of unique wines and spirits for those special occasions or even those times when you just want something that tastes incredible. Reasonably priced for what you are getting and friendly helpful staff who know their stuff make this place my regular stop. Save the stuff you got elsewhere for later in the night when the taste buds can no longer tell the difference but start the night off with something wonderful from Wine Cavern. You won't regret it!

Great choice of wines and beverages. Friendly helpful staff

Went with a couple friends for an early birthday celebration/ scoping out drinks to serve at a wedding adventure. We arrived a little before 11, and there weren’t any other customers, it’s a beautiful, scenic drive through the foothills from Calgary, and a beautiful place to sit and relax. When our group was complete, we went right in and started a tasting. The ladies assisting with the tasting were knowledgeable, friendly, and very excited about the brand. It was wonderful being able to taste all the meads before purchasing, and we each got to keep our tasting glass as well! The tour was wonderful; one of the owners took us around and spent quite some time talking about the process of the bees making honey, and how they keep the bees safe, healthy, and happy throughout the process. We were able to see the entire work area, and where they are expanding to a bigger shop. It’s easy to see why their mead and honey are so excellent, this family is pouring their heart into their business and it really shines through!!

A few years ago I fell in love with mead. So when I heard there was a meadery open in the area I knew I had to check it out. The first chance I got to go out I took it and I was not disappointed. I met with some of the owners (father and son), who took me for a tour of the facility and told me the back ground of the meadery and their strives to create unique flavors. Being someone who both enjoys drinking mead I also love brewing it. This granted a long and insiteful convorsation about flavor profiles and new methods of brewing. After some much appreciated exchanging of ideas it was off to the tasting room. The entire line up was there and I was fighting hard to curb my excitement to try them all. With out writing out a long review on each individual mead I will say every one I tried was a new experience. From the black currant to the wild, each was a mouthful of new flavor adventures. Familear fruits mixed with fragrant honey brought a smile to my pallet. But what I was not prepared for was their newest flavor, Haskap. It looks like an elongated blueberry, so I was expecting a similar flavor. I couldn't be more wrong, it was a mixture of citris with notes of blueberry and honey. It was nothing like I ever experience in my life. I could write about notes and hints all day. But that would not do the mead justice. All I knew is that I needed to take a battle home and sit with the crisis of sharing or enjoying alone. I wound up taking their entire lineup home as I had to share these unique meads with family and friends. I know they will fall in love with these meads as I have. Even though Grey Owl Meadery is the new kid on the block they have come out the gate swinging. They are not afraid of taking chances with new flavors you wont find anywhere else. They are a heavy contender in the growing world of mead and I for one am excited to see what flavors they come up with next to knock out my taste buds.

Very helpful staff there! Lots of selection!

A great winery with seats at the bar that allow you to relax and enjoy your tasting. There was a huge flood of people that came in for a wedding, which impeded the tasting a bit, but in that situation there's not much the bartenders can do. The explanations of the wine were brief, but to the point. Overall I enjoyed the wines and would return for a glass or to sign up for the wine club, maybe just when it's a little quieter.

A modern design. Very knowledgeable staff. Their wine is deliciously complex and approachable. It truly was a treat to visit Alpha Omega. I ended up having a very insightful and informative conversation with the wine educator I was assigned. The tasting area overlooks St. Helena Hwy. The fountains are a lovely touch to the scenery especially since they don’t overwhelm the view of the mountain range.

Friendly people, awesome shaded picnic area if you bring your own food and decide to taste

Great place for family outing. Kids from 3-12 will find lots of activities at a super affordable price. "Bouncy castles", playgrounds with unique and creative activities, "train" ride with a farm tractor engine, and more... all for just a few dollars. The shop is great for fresh produce and crafts so you can load up on berries and more before you leave. The food is fine too, the only problem is that they cannot keep up with demand on the weekends so plan your trip M-F if possible. I've been a couple of times and yesterday (Sunday) was my first weekend experience and that was far less fun. We waited 50 minutes(!) to get food and 30 minutes to ride the tractor-train. Thats a lot to ask of a young child in 25+ degree heat. They definitely need more staff on the weekends
