The Golden Mile Bench winery is elated with a platinum win amongst the 15 medals awarded through blind tastings by a panel of twenty-one judges from eight provinces.

“The ‘Winery of the Year’ designation is as big as it gets in Canadian wine,” said David Lawrason, co-Chairman of the National Wine Awards. “We are very impressed that the performance of Mission Hill Family Estate led all others in 2019 with an incredible 18 medals.”
Moon Curser Vineyards received an astounding 11 medals in the competition, including Platinum for its 2017 Touriga Nacional. Moon Curser Vineyards topped the standings for any winery producing fewer than 10,000 cases annually, and ranked second overall for all wineries in Canada.
We are grateful for the warm days, cool nights, sunshine and clear skies that this summer brings. Hopefully all of you are getting a chance to share these lovely summer days with friends and family.
