Thirty Bench Wine Makers




Beamsville, Ontario
Award-Winning Wines & Stunning Views

Thirty Bench Wine Makers

Ontario's Winery of the Year 2019 is the best kept secret in wine country. A small boutique winery that focuses on limited production wines, including world-renowned Rieslings and Cabernet Franc.

Before driving to Niagara-on-the-Lake, we drove up the winding road of the escarpment to Thirty Bench Wine Makers. The view from the escarpment is amazing. We loved the intimate atmosphere of this winery in comparison to some of the larger and crowded ones. The staff were extremely polite, knowledgeable, and service oriented. We believe Thirty Bench produces some of the best quality wines in the Niagara Peninsula and highly recommend you visit for yourselves! I wish we would have stayed longer.Hobo333, Trip Advisor Review

thirty bench 25th anniversary

A Glimpse of our History

25th Anniversary

Our winery opened its doors in 1994, 14 years after Dr. Muckle purchased an orchard on the Beamsville Bench and planted some of the first Riesling vineyards in Niagara in the early 80s. Since then, we've been crafting mouthwatering Rieslings from our small estate vineyard. We invite you to join us at the winery to celebrate our favourite varietal by sipping on a glass of wine in the vineyard overlooking Lake Ontario and the Toronto skyline in the distance.
