This is a must stop when doing the wine trail/tour. The service was excellent. The lady that waited on us really took her time to tell us about the process and walk us through the tasting. They honey wine is amazing and something different. She also gave me a little jar of honey since it was my birthday and it was so good Im not ashamed to say I ended up eating it in the car before we left. Really great experience.

Our wine club had an outstanding tour and tasting last Saturday. Sonya, our host was perhaps the best host we have ever had for a tour. She was extremely energetic and knowledgeable. The wines sampled were excellent, including the mead wine, cab franc and merlot. Well done, Rosewood. Mark - Wentworth West Zymologists

We visited Rosewood with another couple. It was everyone's first time here. Sampled serveral wines and purchased a couple. At Rosewood they make their wine by fermenting honey and water. Just the perfect amount of sweetness. Staff were friendly. Our friends were given a free bottle of honey to congratulate them on their recent wedding. Apparently there is an old legend about grooms sweeping wives away for a month (1 moon) while drinking mead (water and honey mixture) during this time away. Something about all of this is where the term honeymoon was derived from. Really interesting story.

Decided to venture out and visit some of the wineries we've driven past over the years. Truly amazing how many are in the Twenty Valley and Niagara regions. But, we had never done it before. We were very fortunate to stop in at Rosewood first because, I believe it was Janice, took the time to walk us through everything we needed to know when tasting wines. She was fantastic! We just stopped in for a tasting but spend a fair amount of time there. We are both red wine drinkers traditionally but followed instruction and ran our way through the wines, starting with white, to reds, and also into mead (don`t see that too often!). Glad we did. What caught both of us was the Mima`s Block Riesling. It was very tasty and full bodied. None of the reds caught our attention, but this one white did. So... we bought it. Thinkin`I`ll open that tonight!Small, friendly little winery. Definitely worth the visit. Tastings are $5 for three, but because we made a purchase, that was waived.

Good but lighter reds. Nice staff but small tasting room. Nice to have something different with the honey blended wines. Excellent " trois femmes" rose!

The host we had during our visit was an absolute delight. She certainly did know her stuff. We razzed her and joked around and drank some wine and bought some wine. Altogether, it was a pleasant visit. We will return.

Husband is into drinking mead so I thought this place will interest him. A very big and beautiful winery in the heart of Beamsville. I enjoyed taking photos of the landscape here. We didn't get to do the tour and we're told we have to book which was a bummer. I was hoping we will get a tour on how mead was made, which was they main reason of the entire trip. We did get to do the tasting and bought a bottle of mead. I myself prefer Riesling, but the Sussreserve didn't really do it for me. But will definitely be back and do some Christmas shopping there. They do have some Honey products that interest me.

Hi Shane, I'm so sorry to hear about this. Unfortunately things come up, but that should never take the attention away from a customer. I know an experience such as this may dissuade you from coming back, but if you find yourself in the area again, I do hope you decide to stop in.

A small winery with honey accents in all their wines. They have a lovely selection of Mead. Tastings cost even if you purchase which is my only criticism.
