13th Street Winery #FoodieDaysofChristmas Contest

It’s Day 20 of the #FoodieDaysofChristmas. While we are close to wrapping up this party, the prizes just seem to be getting better by the day. Today, we go to our happy place…13th Street Winery. We visit a lot of wineries, and drink a lot of wine. #TrueStory. While each winery has it’s own charm, 13th Street Winery has an energy all its own. Art, nature, spirituality, and award winning wines mesh together in perfect harmony at 13th Street Winery.

13th Street Winery evolved from the desire to create exceptional wines that reflect the unique terroir of Niagara while also providing a place for guests to congregate and escape; to relax and discover; to experience and learn.
Owners, partners and friends Doug and Karen Whitty and John and June Mann share a common love of wine, food and art and a genuine heart for hospitality. It was this shared appreciation that brought them together and provided the vision for 13th Street Winery.

Doug

Both families have strong roots in Niagara and a strong commitment to the community. Doug Whitty is the third generation to be operating the family farm in St Catharines which was originally established in 1908. John Mann has been involved in farming for over 30 years while building a very successful automotive dealership network in St Catharines and the surrounding areas.

13th

Together the two families’ shared vision for the winery is on full display at the retail wine boutique on Fourth Avenue. The beautifully restored century-old farmhouse was designed to be both contemporary and inviting where the ambiance and warm hospitality of home can be experienced by all visitors. The spectacular Gallery Room harvest–style table is the ideal location to bring together friends and strangers to explore a common love for wine, food, art and conversation.

Visit their tasting bar and enjoy a guided sample of our wines or relax on their seasonal verandah with a glass of wine and enjoy the tranquility of our beautiful surroundings. Wander their expansive grounds and discover the sculptures and art work that adorn their property. Of course, no visit to 13th Street is complete without a visit to the 13th Street Bakery, where you can savour the delicious aromas of fresh baking featuring local farm-fresh fruit, our legendary butter tarts and a fine collection of artisan goodies!
