Discovering KEW Winery: My New Favourite Local Gem
Stepping Into the Cozy Tasting Room
The moment I walked into KEW’s tasting room, I felt right at home. It’s warm, inviting, and has that cozy charm that makes you want to stay for hours. I could immediately sense that this wasn’t just any winery—there’s a relaxed, welcoming vibe that puts you at ease from the get-go. I started my visit with a wine tasting, and let me tell you, KEW’s selection did not disappoint.
Vineyard Views and Patio Charm
After sampling a few wines inside, I couldn’t resist heading out to their patio. Imagine sitting with a glass of wine in hand, surrounded by rows of grapevines stretching into the distance. It’s so peaceful and picturesque that I almost forgot I hadn’t traveled far from home! This patio is where I found myself spending most of the afternoon, just taking in the scenery and savoring each sip.
A Touch of History with Every Sip
One of the things that makes KEW stand out is its rich history. The original farmhouse on the property dates all the way back to the 1860s! And as I wandered around, I learned that some of the vines were actually planted in 1975. It’s such a unique blend of past and present—you can feel that history is very much alive here, adding a little extra magic to each visit.
Sparkling Wines That Shine
If you’re a fan of sparkling wines, KEW will be a real treat. They specialize in traditional method bubbly, and their Blanc de Blanc, made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, is a must-try. I could taste the care and expertise that goes into each bottle, and there’s something about sipping sparkling wine right in the vineyard where it’s made that just makes it taste even better.
Why You Should Visit This Summer
So, if you’re looking for a place to unwind, soak up a little history, and enjoy some seriously good wine, KEW Winery should definitely be on your summer to-do list. It’s the kind of spot that feels like a true escape—even though it’s just a short drive away. Whether you’re a wine enthusiast, a history lover, or just in need of a relaxing day out, KEW has a little something for everyone.
