The Vineyard

Nestled in the prestigious Beamsville Bench sub-appellation, our six-acre vineyard stands as a testament to viticultural excellence. Planted in 1995, our mature vines of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Chardonnay benefit from meticulous management, with each vine carefully tended to produce just one cluster per shoot. This extraordinary attention to detail ensures consistently superior fruit quality year after year.

Winemaker's Perspective:

"After 24 years of crafting wines in Niagara, I've found something truly special in the Solo Per Amici vineyard," notes Kevin Panagapka. "It's unique position in the warmest part of the Beamsville Bench consistently delivers perfectly ripened Cabernet Sauvignon—a rare achievement in our climate. This inaugural 2022 vintage showcases everything I've learned about crafting world-class wines, sparing no expense in time or resources to create something extraordinary."
