Niagara Landing Wine Cellars

My absolute favorite wine from the area. I’m a sucker for sweet red wine, and this place is known for it’s sweet, delicious tasting wine. I probably go through a bottle of the Raspberry Rosebud in a week. Yum yum, it’s so good.
Recently I went on a wine tasting tour and you could taste six different wines for only a few dollars. That was the cheapest tasting I had done and you get the most for your money. Also, the tasting room was pretty cool and the staff was very friendly. Even though I was surely acting like a goofball, being that Niagara Landing was our last stop.
My favorites: Rosebud Red, which is a plain sweet red wine. I ended up picking up a bottle of this, even though it wasn’t the one I had originally wanted to purchase. It was done in a few days. So good. Raspberry Rosebud is the queen of sweet. I love raspberries, so this makes sense for me. For the white wines, Rosebud Peach is phenomenal. It’s like you’re drinking juice, it’s pretty dangerous. Rosebud Gold is delicious as well.
Again, a must try in the region if you like your sweet wine! Even if you don’t like it too much, with six wine tastes, you’ll be sure to find something you like.

Very large wine selection and always seems to be a popular spot. I did appreciate a unique sample of a hot pepper wine. But, in general, its majority sweet wines that I didn’t really care for.

The winery so nice, I’ve reviewed it twice. I think I had the same server both times, and I’m horrible at names, but he’s great. Very informative and friendly. I’ll share my thoughts on all the wines I’ve tried here to date:
The dry Merlot is smooth with cherry and plum notes, a little bit of oak and mild tannins.
The semi dry Riesling and semi sweet Riesling are similarly soft and citrusy with varying degrees of sweetness.
Boxer Blush is fruity and a little tart. Not bad, but I prefer the more unique Rosebud Rosé.
Rosebud Red tastes like rose petals and Christmas.
Rosebud Raspberry is sweet and fruity, but I prefer Toriamour at Victorianbourg.
Rosebud White is my favorite white wine. It’s a lush blend of Riesling, Vidal Blanc and Niagara grapes with a hint of rose petals. Enchanting.
Rosebud Gold is a trip. They call it their island wine because it has a strong pineapple note despite containing no pineapple whatsoever. It’s one of their most popular wines, and perfect for summer… if you like pineapple. I don’t mind a hint, but it’s all pineapple all the time. Intriguing, but not for me.
The hot pepper wine is another popular wine. It’s interesting on it’s own, but the residual heat compliments Chocolate Dream very well. Chocolate Dream is as you’d expect, but chocolate by itself doesn’t do much for me. If they ever blend the two, that really would be a dream!
Almond Dream tastes like amaretto and maraschino cherries. It’s my favorite dessert wine and possibly my favorite taste sensation period. I love smelling it, too. Both Dreams have a sherry base so they are very rich and strong.
Niagara Landing is a must visit. You’re bound to fall in love with something after six tastes, and the prices are similarly generous. For example, wines from the Rosebud line are $ 9.99 for 750 ml and the Dreams are $ 9.99 for 375 ml.

The wines are sumptuous but you have to jump on up on the counter shirtless and Maryann did and we still had to wait.

Probably my favorite winery on the trail. The reason is that most of the wineries seem to excel on dry or sweet wine, but rarely both. This means that half the time someone in your party is unsatisfied. Not the case with Niagara Landing. They have an excellent selection of dry, sweet, and dessert wines.
Wines:
My personal favorites are the Merlot, Meritage, and Gewürztraminer. I would put any of these up against Finger Lakes or California wine any day. A particular highlight is their Vidal Blanc ice wine. I’m not normally fan of the super sweet stuff but this wine is stellar. Be sure to pay an extra couple of dollars to give it a try. There’s also the Chocolate Dream, a choclatey dessert wine. — More on that later.
Venue:
Beyond the wine itself, I love the tasting room here. Large and specious, the layout handles large crowds better than the other wineries. The gift selection is decent as well. They offer everything from trinkets to fruit butters and popcorn. I’ve also found the staff here to be super friendly and knowledgeable. Each time I’ve visited I’ve always felt welcomed and eager to try their recommendations.
Summary:
If you plan on doing the trail make sure not to skip out on Niagara Landing, Oh, and if you want to get a treat for the lovely lady in your life be sure to pick up a bottle of Chocolate Dream. Thank me later.

Very nice winery. The staff was great. In general we had an amazing time. Price is very affordable. Loved the hot pepper wine.

Came here for a wine tour and it was easily my favorite winery of the 6 we visited!
Pluses:
+ Huge bar
+ Excellent staff — very helpful and knowledgeable!
+ WINE SLUSHIES — need I say more?!!
+ Great wines
+ They had a food truck on Saturday!
+ Great spicy popcorn as well
Minuses:
— Hmmm nothing!
I will definitely come back!

This place was great. Huge bar and lots of staff, so even though there was a large group and some other guests, we were still able to find a spot at the bar and get served.
The woman who did our tasting was very friendly, explained each wine to us, and recommended wines to try based on our tastes. I’m glad I went with her recommendations too– I liked everything she suggested!
A lot of their wines are tasty, and the prices are cheap to decent, so I pick up a few bottles while you’re there!
Also, when we were there they had sandwiches and seasoned nuts for sale by vendors, not sure if they have that every weekend though.

Went for a tasting today and was so disrespected by the wine pourer. She was so disrespectful to us and didn’t give us any information on the wines. I will never go there again nor will I buy their wines. Hire people that are nice and train them better.

Niagara landing wine is right on the famous wine trail. Prices of wine vary from $ 10 to $ 25. Super friendly staff and they have a wine sample tasting that if you drink all the wines you will wish you was chauffeured.. the wine is so tasty and clean I have ordered my favorites from them 3x this year… try the chocolate wine its amazing and strong!!!

Fine place. Easy to find. $ 3 for 4 samples. But the iced wine cost $ 2.5 extra, which I’m not a big fan.

Some of the most interesting wines I’ve had! Tastings were very reasonably priced at $ 2 for 4 tastings. Would highly, HIGHLY recommend the Rosebud Gold white wine which smells and tastes like pineapple. For a unique treat, also try the Chocolate Dream wine which tastes like an alcoholic Queen Anne chocolate!

We walked in around 5:47, but still felt very welcome. Far more generous tastings and cheaper not to mention more variety to taste than other wineries we went to in the area. They have a wine there that tastes like a not to sweet tropical paradise. Delicious. Particularly if you’re not a dry wine fan, go here. You won’t regret it.
