Tour Our Estate Winery

Just 70 miles west and a world away from Toronto are the vineyards of the fertile Niagara Peninsula. Among the area's picturesque landscaping is the noteworthy De Sousa Wine Cellars. Establishing a well preserved Portuguese heritage, the fruit of persistence has pioneered this destination to be one of the great wineries in the Ontario wine industry.

De Sousa Wine Cellars, family owned and operated through generations, has been making the finest wines for years. 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.

Unique to De Sousa Wine Cellars is the wonderful taste sensation you'll achieve when savouring red wine in a Portuguese clay cup. Be sure to request your next tasting the old-fashioned Portuguese way. Many a skeptic have become believers!

In the Spring of 1998, De Sousa Wines celebrated the grand opening of its Toronto facility. In the tradition set by the opening of their Beamsville winery, the Toronto location is destined for popularity. "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."
