Ontario has an igloo-like wine lounge made of ice & you’ll need a parka

Niagara is famous for its lush vineyards and award-winning wineries, but there’s one special spot that’s not like the others – the 10Below Icewine Lounge at Peller Estates Winery.

This fascinating lounge is a must-visit for anyone looking to elevate their winery experience to the next level.

As part of their “Greatest Winery Tour,” Peller Estates takes all your senses on a world-class journey.

The tour kicks off with a delightful glass of sparkling wine in their charming backyard.

From there, you’ll meander through the estate vineyard, learning about the distinctive growing region that is the Niagara Escarpment while you enjoy the views.

As you descend into the underground barrel cellar, you’ll be met with the aromas of aging wine.

Among the 300 wine barrels, you’ll get to taste even more exceptional wines.

But the real showstopper comes as you continue through the cellar, discovering Niagara’s only igloo-like lounge, the 10Below Icewine Lounge.

It’s crafted from a whopping 13,607 kilograms of ice and maintained at a chilling -10°C, which is the perfect temperature for harvesting Icewine grapes, according to Peller Estates.

The ice lounge is a true winter wonderland! Here, you’ll sample the liquid gold known as Icewine and enjoy the unique surroundings.

Don’t forget to dress warmly, because you’ll be in the frosty ice lounge and outside as part of the tour.

So, gear up for a day of wine, ice, and unforgettable memories at Peller Estates. Cheers to an unforgettable experience!
