The story behind Leaning Post
Ilya and Nadia Senchuk started Leaning Post in 2009 without a vineyard to their name, buying grapes and making tiny lots wherever they could. Two years later they bought an 11-acre property in Winona, at the cool western edge of Niagara.
The name comes from a leaning fence post on that land. The winery took shape in a restored barn from the 1850s.
Small lots, cool-climate reds
Ilya Senchuk makes wine with a light hand, focused on single vineyards and cool-climate character. The estate grows Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, and the Syrah comes from a nearby grower.
Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling, and Syrah make up most of the range, with a line called The Fifty among the regulars. It is farmed to Sustainable Winegrowing Ontario standards.
