Alvento Winery
Location: Vineland
Alvento Winery, located in Vineland near the stunning Lake Ontario waterfront, has gained a reputation for being a notable player in the wine industry. Founded in 2001, the winery has been making waves as the first winery in Ontario to grow the much-coveted Nebbiolo grape, which has helped it establish a premium reputation as a small batch wine producer.
The vineyard is made up of a combination of light sandy soils and heavier red clay loam soils, creating an ideal environment for growing classic premium wine grape varieties.
The winery’s name, “Alvento,” is derived from the Italian word for “in the wind,” symbolizing the winery’s dedication to crafting aromatic and fruit-forward wines. Following its recent revitalization in 2018, Alvento is committed to producing wines that embody the essence of its rich history and name.
