EPIC "Spring into EPIC", May 28-29, 2022
One of the great things about the EPIC wine region is the diversity of wine experiences we offer.
EPIC’s new May event is the perfect opportunity to enjoy this in action: winery tours, food pairings, vineyard walks, barrel tastings – the “Spring into EPIC” passport lets you choose from 10 different EPIC experiences.
At Dancing Swallows, in 2022 we drew on library wines, current releases, and barrel samples to offer a ‘vertical’ tasting of one red and one white, giving visitors a unique guided experience of Dancing Swallows wines and winemaking across different vintages.
i4C (International Cool Climate Chardonnay Celebration), July 23-25, 2021
This year DSV showed its love of Chardonnay with membership in i4C.
i4C, founded in 2011, is a global celebration all that Chardonnay offers across the world, and has become a highlight of the summer in Ontario Wine Country. Every July, Chardonnay winemakers from around the world gather in Niagara to pour their wines and compare notes. This year, owing to the pandemic, many of the events were online, but on the weekend of July 23-25, individual wineries held special tastings and events to help share their love of their favourite grape.
At Dancing Swallows Vineyard, we joined this celebration with an outdoor dining experience of small plates based on the food of the 2014 movie ‘Chef’: Tostones, Cubanos, Arroz Con Pollo, Texas Smoked Beef Brisket, and more, all served in our outdoor tasting garden with some exceptional Chardonnays (and one Cab Franc). One of our favourite movies, ‘Chef’, is a lovely little film that captures the excitement of food, and the joy of doing something small and unique. It speaks to what we are trying to do here at Dancing Swallows.
