Description:

Hillier Creek Estates is a new winery in Prince Edward County, Ontario's latest designated wine region. After being in development for over eight years, we opened our doors to the public for the first time in spring of 2010. Our vineyards span twenty-four acres, growing Pinot Noir, Gamay, Riesling, Chardonnay, and Vidal. The centerpiece of our property, a beautifully restored 150 year old barn transformed into our winery, tasting room, and retail store, is an eye catching piece of county history directly visible from Loyalist Parkway (Highway 33). We invite you to tour our vineyards and winery and learn about our grape growing and wine making process, or simply come and enjoy a glass of wine in the welcoming atmosphere of our tasting room.
