Hillside Winery

This elegant and refined Merlot is filled with aromas of cassis and coffee which are mirrored in the palate, alongside flavours of ripe cherry, damson plum with hints of dark chocolate. The tannins are soft and silky, fashioning a lingering finish. 

Single Vineyard Series

Gjoa’s vineyard, situated just below our winery, was established 17 years ago.  These mature vines produce fruit which stands out with deep plum and mocha aromas and a savoury note to the palate, lending sophistication to the finish. So fun to taste and compare with our Dickinson Vineyard Merlot! 

New Release! Crafted from grapes grown in our Hidden Valley vineyard our 2015 Syrah opens with black raspberry and notes of clove and espresso which interweave with black current and a touch of cardamom on the palate.  Elegant fine-grained tannins lead into a powerful juicy finish.

Legend has it that Hillside’s founder planted the first Cabernet Sauvignon vines in the valley.  That first row still lies just to the south of the Howe vineyard, source of this lovely wine.  The depth and flavours of blackberry jam, black cherries, and cocoa powder, along with its power and elegance, continue to amaze us.

Two of the classic Bordeaux varieties in an exciting pairing for Hillside.  Spiced mocha jumps out of the glass on the first sniff—then a hint of orange rind mingles with the fresh dark fruits.  On the palate, the fine-grained tannins lead into a generous and juicy finish.
