Give Mom The Gift of Wine

Does mom love a great glass of merlot? Or maybe a crisp chardonnay? Or how about a sparkling rose? You’re in luck with EPIC Wineries right in our own backyard! Explore the wineries along the Lake Erie North Shore that call EPIC Wine County home. Book mom her very own wine tour, add in lunch or dinner at one of the winery restaurants like Bistro at North 42 Estate Winery, Oxley Estate Winery or pizza at Muscedere Vineyards. Purchase an EPIC Digital Wine Tasting Pass to enjoy 4 x 1oz tastings at six of the participating wineries. Looking to be a bit more active? Make it a bicycle wine tour with Unconquered Custom Electric Bike Wine Tours. Cruise the vineyards in vintage style!

Give Mom The Gift of Brew

Does your mom enjoy a nice cold beer on a warm spring day? Or maybe she’s into a refreshing cocktail created by the distillers of whisky and gin in Windsor Essex.

It’s the gift that keeps on giving where she can explore and pour the 13 stops on our barrel trail.
