Delicious and well-priced wines!! Free tastings. Very nice SSB, Pinot Blanc, Can Sauv, and Late Harvests. Beautifully-revamped winery with stacks of space and lots of games such as Finska, Giant Jenga, several totem tennis and table tennis tables!

Definitely a must visit. A bit of a hidden gem producing some fine wines. The cellar door manager (Nadia I think) made us feel at home and we were also greeted by her very excited dog. Really made it feel like we're at her home. The wines itself are of fantastic quality. The late harvest wines are certainly a standout. Can't wait to return.

We arrived at Lenton Brae this afternoon and the cellar door was open. We sat in the cellar door for ~15 minutes, rang the bell and called out but no one was around. A real shame seems we planned on buying a few cases of the late harvest.

Had a chance to do some wine tasting. The lady there was a kind happy soul. Very down to earth relaxed environment. Nothing pretentious. We have had the pleasure of going down to the cellars for a one on one guided tour. The Cabernet merlot was good but if you have a sweet tooth like me then late harvest might be your glass of wine

Great wines and lovely family operated business. We had a special tour of the building and the processing cellar.
