Celebrate the elegance of Chardonnay in the open air, surrounded by limestone-rich vineyards, restful gardens, and the serene views from the Tower at Dobbin Estate on the Twenty Mile Bench.
This exclusive i4C experience offers guests a rare opportunity: a dedicated visit with each of three acclaimed winemakers, tasting two single-vineyard Chardonnays at each station:
Peter Gamble, your host (Dobbin Estate, Niagara)
Romain Chevrolat (Domaine Laroche, Chablis)
Greg Rowdon (CheckMate Artisanal Winery, British Columbia)
Tide & Vine will shuck oysters and offer other East Coast-inspired bites, alongside artisan bread, cultured butter, and seasonal vegetable spreads. This is a “between meals” event.
Tastings will take place at stations set in and near the Tower. Your unique arrival time (established at the time of booking) will ensure that you and your group have dedicated quality time with each winemaker for conversation, questions, photos and to give each wine the attention it deserves. The guided portion of the experience will unfold over approximately one hour. Guests are then invited to linger – to explore the gardens, soak in the vineyard views, and enjoy the beauty of the Bench at their own pace. (A rain plan is in place.)
