Tour Our Estate Winery

Just an hour west and a world away from Toronto are the vineyards of fertile Niagara. Among the area's picturesque landscaping is the noteworthy De Sousa Wine Cellars. With a well preserved Portuguese heritage, this destination is one of the great wineries in Ontario.

Our wines are given the utmost attention and devotion, which spawns a unique and exquisite taste only the Portuguese tradition could create. All of our red wines are carefully aged in oak to achieve the flavour and bouquet taught to us by our forefathers.

In the Spring of 1998, De Sousa Wines opened its Toronto facility.  "This is the only winery located in the heart of Toronto" said John Jr. "and in keeping with the tradition of the Beamsville location, we are dedicated to producing wines of exceptional character and quality."

 
Visitors are invited to taste the wines and tour the picturesque interior of the new location with the assurance of being greeted with the same De Sousa family tradition of hospitality. John Jr. added, "We are looking forward to making our Toronto winery a destination where fine wines and enjoyable ambience go hand-in-hand."

Visit our winery boutique and taste wines in a picturesque Portuguese setting using our traditional clay cups. These red clay, unglazed cups produce similar effects to aging in red wines. They clay attracts sediment particles in the wine creating a smoother and more round flavour on the palate by softening the tannins in the wine. This brings forward more fruit and earth flavours in the wine. Try it out and see if you can notice the difference!

If you are making your way through our beautiful wine country during the summer months, our DeSousa property is a great place to stop, take in some scenery and enjoy a light lunch. Make yourself comfortable on one of the picnic tables scattered throughout the property, or on our vineyard patio with a boxed lunch, prepared by EastDell Estates Chef, Thomas King. For the ultimate wine experience add a glass of wine to your luncheon.
