We came here for a simple wine tasting and had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Sandor. He’s such a kind and passionate person who took the time to introduce every single wine with its history, production method, and more before we tasted it. The whole experience was absolutely amazing.

My partner and I aren’t even big wine lovers, but we ended up buying a whole box (12 bottles) — and every one of them was worth every penny. We’re more than happy to support local businesses that truly care about crafting high-quality products.

We had the fine pleasure of spending an afternoon with Sandor for a wine tasting. He took us on a tour de force of history, process, creativity, and shear passion that he and his family exhibit in their passion for creating fantastic wines. It’s worth any amount of travel to experience the estate and wines. We drove 2hr from Toronto just to visit and it was well worth the drive.

Regardless if you’re an experienced wine drinker or just curious and learning, Sandor will teach and delight you. He’s also very generous with his time which after learning about how well accomplished he is in the wine world really makes me appreciate how humble and down to earth he is.

The educational and flavour experience is well worth the relatively affordable price of admission. I personally learned a lot and had a great time. The best wine tasting experience I’ve ever had!

The estate is absolutely beautiful and completely accessible to the public. Don’t let the awards and grandness intimidate and scare you off. There’s no pretentiousness here that might come coupled with other places of his calibre of wine. I got the sense that this is a place welcoming of all prior wine experience and socioeconomic backgrounds.

I’ve been to wine tastings all over the World and I honestly have to say that this was the most interesting and enjoyable experience bar none! Sandhu literally delivers a unique Wine Makers performance and experience.

Going to Potter Vinyards can’t be described as just wine tasting. It’s a history lesson, innovators diary, chemistry explanation, entrepreneurs how to guide, and yes you get to taste some of the finest wines in Canada that have been awarded more gold medals than any other! Make sure you call first to make sure that Sandhu will be there to give the tour, and don’t plan to be out in an hour because 2.5 hours will go by before the experience ends.

A gem of a place near Tweed ON. Gorgeous, yet hidden away. Sandor led an entertaining and educational tasting that demonstrates a competence, and a commitment to doing things the right way. The award winning small batch wines speak for themselves. A charcuterie board of locally sourced items paired very well also.

Fantastic tasting, stories, and wine - worth the detour!

We went to Potter’s Settlement after hearing rave reviews from my parents for years and it was definitely worth the trip!! The tasting, facilitated by the wine maker Sandor, is completely unique. The passion and dedication to wine making shines in the stories that accompany each wine you taste. Some of the origin stories for the wine you taste are rich with Canadian history.

The tasting, was by far the most enjoyable and educational wine tasting. The quality and detailed explanation of the history and process for each wine presented is unmatched compared to tastings I’ve experienced at other wineries in Ontario regions Niagara, PEC, and Lake Erie.

Thanks Andrew and Sandor!

Went to Potter Settlement after reading an article in the Bay of Quinte newsletter and talking with people who had gone previously. Everything I read and heard was positive.
This was the best wine tasting experience I’ve ever had!! Not only are the winery grounds beautiful but the gentleman who did our tasting was very knowledgeable, personable, patient and funny!! Every wine we tasted had a background story. I learned so much and garnered a greater appreciation for wine making. Will definitely be returning!!
