"We did a tour and tasting. The view from the winery is beautiful. We could see the lake. Tour was okay. She was okay. I felt it’s rushed. It’s a crowded place. So many people were there come and go. We wanted to try other wine too but the staff was too busy to deal with us. Peach wine was tasty. We bought one. Konzelmann is good for the experience and short stop to sample."

"We had an amazing time at Konzelmann Estate Winery! The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Each wine we tasted had distinct, delicious flavors – it was clear how much care goes into their winemaking. We enjoyed every moment of the tasting experience and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Niagara-on-the-Lake!"
