Welcome to the world of Colio Estate Wines, a tradition of award-winning viticulture and winemaking that blends experience, modern innovation and a palpable passion, one that is reflected in every product that we make. It is this passion that defines us.
We invite you to make the memorable journey to see our winery, meet our friendly staff and taste our wines. Or simply get to know us by browsing this website and witnessing the passion for yourself…
When we first opened our doors in 1980 we were recipients of the first winery license in the region since prohibition. This rekindled a viticultural interest in what was once the largest grape growing area in the country and led to the establishment of the Lake Erie North Shore as a VQA designated viticultural area.  Today, our picturesque winery in Harrow boasts over 2.4 million litres of cooperage including a climate-controlled barrel aging room and a technologically advanced bottling line that produces in excess of 240,000 cases per year. Tastings and Tours begin and end at our elegant Hospitality Centre which features all of our wines, wine gifts and souvenirs. (As a highpoint in our years of operation, we were awarded "
WINERY OF THE YEAR" at the
49th Annual Niagara Grape & Wine Festival.) And in 2006, the company purchased a new vineyard parcel in Niagara-on-the-Lake with designs on building a showcase winery there opening in 2009. This will give the company a significant presence in two of the most important VQA regions in the country.
