In 1985, Mario and Nancy Adamo transformed a 28‑room inn north of Toronto into Hockley Valley Resort, embracing a location that truly felt like home. Inspired by the vine‑covered hills of his hometown in Calabria, Italy, Mario envisioned the slopes of Hockley Valley as a place where grapes could thrive. In 2000, the first test vines on a newly purchased 77‑acre property were planted, and by 2015, Adamo Estate Winery was born. Today, this boutique, small‑batch winery boasts over 28,000 vines, farmed with organic and biodynamic principles. Led by winemaker Shauna White, the team crafts terroir‑driven wines that showcase both the character of Hockley Valley and select sites from Niagara’s most renowned vineyards.

This Bordeaux-inspired blend opens with a youthful, vibrant nose of ripe red and black berries, accented by floral notes, hints of liquorice, and a touch of toasted almond. On the palate, juicy redcurrant and ripe strawberry flavours are supported by silky tannins and balanced acidity, creating a smooth, refreshing profile. Subtle toasty undertones carry through to a fruity finish.

Phantom Creek Estates, located on the renowned Black Sage Bench in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley, is celebrated for its single-vineyard Bordeaux reds, expressive Alsace-inspired whites, and the region’s signature Viognier and Syrah. Founded by Richter Bai with the acquisition of the famed Becker and Phantom Creek Vineyards in 2016, the estate combines a passion for Bordeaux-style wines with a commitment to excellence. Today, under the guidance of Olivier Humbrecht MW, its vineyards are 100% certified organic and farmed biodynamically. By emphasizing individual vineyards and grape varieties, Phantom Creek Estates crafts wines that capture the unique character of their terroir while showcasing the distinct aromas and flavours of each variety, resulting in wines of remarkable clarity, complexity, and depth—a truly singular tasting experience.

Notorious throughout the Okanagan for its challenges, the 2021 vintage was marked by an exceptionally hot summer, prompting periodic vine shutdowns due to extreme temperatures. Careful selection and early harvesting were essential, yielding smaller berries with intensely ripe flavours and remarkable concentration.

The Estate’s 2021 Cuvée unfolds with a captivating bouquet of forest-inspired aromas, including mushrooms, truffles, and the freshness of wet stones. On the palate, it offers creamy richness accented by crisp bell pepper and cassis, framed by subtle minerality and a hint of leather. The interplay of fruit and finely structured tannins culminates in a long, flavourful finish - a true expression of South Okanagan.
