Located outside the historic town of Niagara-on-the-Lake, Stratus Vineyards is an estate winery, distinguished by its LEED-certified gravity flow facility, its commitment to sustainability and wines of outstanding quality.
Known as one of Niagara’s winemaking pioneers, J-L (Jean-Laurent) Groux brought his vision of creating premium New World wines through the Old World art of assemblage to Stratus. Using the vineyard as his palette, he creates complexity through diversity by blending several grape varieties into one layered and richly textured wine. J-L crafts his wines to have powerful aromatics, a round mouthfeel, complexity, significant length and the capability of aging at least seven to 10 years. This allows wine lovers to taste the benefits of patience and time.
