Indigenous World Winery

local tip

Indigenous World Winery has a genuinely relaxed, beautiful vibe with spectacular views that make it perfect for a casual date or a more meaningful conversation—the staff are warm and knowledgeable without being pushy, and they're thoughtful touches like free sparkling cider for designated drivers and complimentary juice for kids show they actually care. The patio is where you want to be, especially if you're bringing a dog, and the building itself is stunning enough that you'll want to linger over a glass of their standout wines (the Muscat and Petit Verdot get serious love). Go on a weekday or early afternoon to avoid crowds and actually chat with staff like Janice, who genuinely light up talking about the Indigenous-owned operation—it's the only fully Indigenous winery in Canada, which makes the whole experience feel special and worth supporting.
