Overview

Here the elements perfectly align. Gentle southern slopes nurture acres of vines against the backdrop of an ever-changing tidal landscape, rolling hills, and the panoramic Avondale sky.

The Winery
Visit us for a unique wine experience in our retail shop, a restored 180-year-old former church that was transported 40 kilometres over the highest tides in the world. Enjoy wine tastings of our award-winning wines, take a vineyard tour and visit during our special events, all offered with a personal touch. Our small lot wines are crafted with care and are sure to please… but don’t take our word for it.

“Today the great travelling church is one of the most tranquil and lovely wine tasting rooms in the world.”
– Globe and Mail

“…an extensive range of wines that have already brought an exciting new profile to the local region…A fine accomplishment.”
– Chronicle Herald

“…winemaker Ben Swetnam makes a lot of smart, well-crafted cuvées.”
– Palate Press

The Restaurant
Inspired by the vineyards and the surrounding bounty of the Annapolis Valley, our approach is simple: include seasonal fresh, local ingredients and let the flavours speak for themselves.

Open May through October, join us on our patio or in our circa-1837 church tasting room restaurant for a light lunch or a divine dinner. Either way, we can recommend the perfect wine to pair with it.

Avondale Sky Sip, Stay, and Savour
November through April, open by advance appointment or by booking the Avondale Sky Sip, Stay, and Savour package.
