Meldville Wines | Achetez vos vins en ligne au Canada

Meldville Wines se spécialise dans les vins en petites quantités et en édition limitée, créés par le célèbre vigneron Derek Barnett. Derek a commencé à produire du vin en 1991 et se concentre sur les cépages vinifera haut de gamme qui poussent le mieux dans les vignobles du Niagara.

Cette histoire commence dans ma maison d'enfance à Swinford, en Angleterre, affectueusement nommée Meldville. Ayant toujours été encouragé à rester fidèle à ma nature, j'ai adopté la même philosophie en matière de vinification. Les vins sont élaborés selon les traditions ancestrales, avec peu d'intervention, ce qui ouvre la voie et permet aux vignes de raconter leur propre histoire. — Derek Barnett

The story behind Meldville

Meldville is the personal label of Derek Barnett, a winemaker with more than thirty years in Niagara who had built his name at wineries like Southbrook and Lailey. When Lailey was sold, he struck out on his own in 2015.

The name comes from his childhood family home in England. It is a one-winemaker project, small and personal.

A veteran's small-batch wines

Meldville works as a virtual winery, buying fruit from a handful of trusted growers and making the wine at a Beamsville facility rather than owning a big estate. Barnett keeps things low-intervention, letting the vineyards speak.

Chardonnay is the anchor, joined by Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc, and Sauvignon Blanc. These are the wines of someone who has been refining his craft for decades.
