The story behind Lakeview Wine Co.
Lakeview started in 1991 as the retirement project of Eddy Gurinskas, an award-winning home winemaker who decided to go pro. He set up in Vineland, in the heart of Niagara wine country.
The brand was known as Lakeview Cellars for its first 25 years, then took the Lakeview Wine Co. name in 2016. Its focus has stayed the same: honest, well-priced VQA wine.
Approachable VQA, standout icewine
Lakeview covers a lot of ground, from aromatic whites to Bordeaux-style reds, all Ontario VQA and built to be easy to enjoy. The prices stay friendly, which is part of the point.
Icewine is where it really shines. The Vidal Icewine has taken medals at major international competitions, made from grapes frozen on the vine and pressed while still hard.
