Touring Hillebrand Winery


One of the biggest and one of the most popular wineries along the Niagara-on-the-Lake wine route. The winery began more than 30 years ago and today makes not only white and red wines, but also sparkling wines in the champagne style and the area's famed icewine.


For visitors, a Trius winery tour is offered every hour on the hour, which takes you behind the wine. Visitors get to see the vineyard, the wine cellars for both white and red wines, and, the best part, get to taste Hillebrand's top wines, including their Trius white, Trius red and their icewine.


You can even use your tour receipt for a $5 discount on any bottle of wine in their store.

This is a very unique winery tour, in that you get to see the vineyards and the wine cellars, as well as get to drink some wine! (Woo!)

Afterwards, you're taken to the winery store and shown where the wines you tasted are. You can also go to the tasting bar to try a wine you're thinking about purchasing or try a wine flight. Yum!
