Domaine Queylus
Tasting fee: $25
Dedicated to the truest expression of the land, we produce elegantly styled, low-intervention Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot.
The winery is the fruition of a group of friends‚ dream and their passion for wine, vineyards and terroir. Forty acres (16 hectares) spread over three appellations in Beamsville,Jordan and St Ann's. The name in honour of Gabriel de Queylus who oversaw the first vinification ever on the shores of Lake Ontario.
The winery is owned by twelve partners from Montreal; Co-managing partners: Gilles Chevalier & Gilles Bussiere. the adventure began in2007. After a study of the region, the first investors bought an orchard in Beamsville, on Mountain view Street, and converted the orchard to a vineyard.
Several samples of soil from 30 locations were collected and shipped to France for analysis. An analysis of the soil produced in Bordeaux demonstrated the exceptional quality of the terroir. A very efficient drainage system was installed according to soil type. In the Pinot Noir section, there is drainage for each row. Also, vines of Pinot Noir, Merlot and Cabernet Franc were planted.
The part of the vineyard attributed to Chardonnay required a slight levelling and the earth was left fallow for two years.2009 - After two fallow years, the soil is ready to welcome the Chardonnay vines.2010 - Mr. Thomas Bachelder was engaged as our principal consultant and manager2012 - The first tastings confirmed the potential of the soil.2013 - There was a problem with the construction of the winery. To overcome these problems, we acquired a new property located in St. Anns (West Lincoln) where the new winery was established, with a tasting room as well.Currently only four varietals are Pinot Noir, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Chardonnaysignature wines? Pinot Noir & ChardonnayPhilosophy: Queylus is a recently-established domaine-style winery dedicated to a select number of varietals adapted perfectly to Niagara‚s soils and microclimate.
Domaine Queylus is the fruit of long years of hard work and planning, and was dreamt into existence by a group of friends passionate about wine, the land and terroir. Queylus crafts small lots of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet Franc from organically-run estate vineyards in Beamsville and the Jordan Bench. The wines, made by Thomas Bachelder since 2010, display finesse, structure, depth, elegance and minerality.
