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 concentrated Pinot Noir opens with inviting aromas of ripe raspberry and sweet red cherry, followed by floral whiffs of rose petal and softly toasted spice and leather. Medium-bodied and lifted by refreshing acidity, the palate unveils layers of bright red berries, clove, and earthy herbs, all framed by silky, well-integrated tannins. Juicy fruits melt into the gentle toasted nuances, culminating in a supple and lasting finish.
A versatile partner at the table, this pairs beautifully with duck and game birds like pheasant or quail.
