It's a Spring fairytale in the vineyard right now - bunnies hopping, birds bopping, and buds popping! #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria

Today is the 43rd anniversary of the Winery's parent corporation, Santal Homes Ltd. A corporation our Dad started for his construction company when he was 31 years old. That's 43 years of contributing to the local economy - buying supplies at other local businesses and employing locally. Small businesses are the backbone of the community. They create the character, culture, and ambiance of a place. They make a town a destination.... These are challenging times for a small business, but we do what we can to perservere. Thank you for your continued support and for buying local. Special thanks to our neighbours and friends Blackstone Flower Farm for delivering this beautiful, surprise bouquet! PS. Their season will be starting soon. #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria #shopsmall #essexcountyontario #windsoressexcounty

The Italians have a saying, "il dolce far niente", which translates to the sweetness of doing nothing. Il dolce far niente can be found in everything from mealtimes to doing what you love.The leisurely enjoyment of sweet idleness feels like a notion tied to a romantic ideal of long Italian summers and carefree days, but it can be found no matter where you are. Let's all take a moment this week in this shared experience to pause, enjoy the spring blooms and birdsong, the fresh... air and the sun, perhaps a glass of wine, and embrace the sweetness of doing nothing. #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria

This week we say our official goodbye or we prefer "see you later" to one of our first employees since we took over the winery in Feb 2019. Say hello to John. John leaves us to move to Alberta where he will pursue his career in corrections, after a lot of studying, hard work, and dedication. If you've been to the winery in the last two years, you would have most likely met John, one of our service staff, otherwise affectionately known by the team as "Loud Car" or "Tater Tot" ...(a story for another time). He was our resident iPad POS expert, speed server, occasional fire starter, part-time delivery driver, short term landscaper, and perhaps most importantly, bartender extraordinaire. He balanced out our front of house team with his quick wit, logic, easy going nature, and intuitive hospitality. We wish him all the best in his future endeavours and thank him deeply for his support throughout the last two years. Without him, we definitely wouldn't be where we are today. #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria

It's a beautiful day for a drive, bike, or walk down County Road 50! Grab some takeout and a bottle of wine, bundle up, and choose a picnic spot with a view. Btw, did you know there is a paved bike lane that connects Cedar Beach to Colchester Beach? It's one of our fav rides! #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria #essexcountyontario #windsoressexcounty #discoverontario

When all is said and done, this aromatic beauty will be our first dry, orange reserve with less than 50 cases produced. Gewürztraminer, originated in Tramin, Italy. Gewürz translates as spice, or perfume.... #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria #vqa #gewurztraminer #winecountryon #wineryyqg #essexcounty

So many architectural features of the winery have a story. Like the outdoor pizza oven. We grew up with one in our backyard and our parent's pizza parties were a well attended affair with live music, dancing, wine, and of course a variety of different pizzas! Dad built this oven in 2013 and believe us when we say it has made a lot of pizzas since (I think 200 in one day was its record!). When we took over last year, it was in rough shape and needed a little restoration and so...me TLC, so we were thrilled when our Uncle Mauro agreed to help restore it. We knew having one of Dad's brothers fix it would make him smile, and for us, it felt more special that way. #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria

We are a Biz X Award Nominee in two categories! Our Fearless Leader and GM, Robin Sheikh, is nominated for "Powerhouse Professional" (category #8) and the Winery is nominated for "Sparkling Winery" (category #22)! Voting is open now until 5 pm on September 25 and we would be grateful for your vote! Simply click this link: https://bizxmagazine.com/2020-biz-x-awards-voting and click on #8 and #22 to vote! It's that simple!... In the meantime, let us share in pictures why we think Robin is not only an amazing leader, but a powerhouse professional. There is nothing he won't do to take care of our guests, our team, and the winery 1. He took pizza oven testing very seriously 2. If there is litter on our property, he will find it 3. Spring cleaning took on a whole new meaning 4. Boss-approved gelato breaks, who doesn't love those 5. The happiest salt and pepper haired pizza delivery boy in the county 6. Impeccable guest service 7. He looks great in a suit even though he rarely gets to wear one anymore 8. Lastly he's our house photographer; the man behind the photos (we just didn't have a photo of him taking a photo) All kidding aside, he is one of the main reasons the winery survived and even thrived during this challenging year, which definitely wasn't in anyone's business plan. He took "fearless" leader to a whole new level! Thank you in advance for your consideration in both categories! We are grateful for your support! #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria

Pizza special right now... oh yes we did! Sweet pickles and bacon on a garlic oil base sprinkled with fresh dill, and it is a flavour combination that will rock your world!... Or if you prefer to skip the pizza, this week's Mediterranean Bowl features roasted chicken breast with fire roasted cherry tomatoes, avocado, purple cabbage, feta, and quinoa with a herb vinaigrette. Buon appetito! #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria

Have you tried our new 2019 Cabernet Franc? If you haven't and you love a robust red, you definitely need to! He's full of body and character with notes of strawberry, raspberry, licorice, and chili pepper with a dried fruit and spice finish that is simply mouthwatering!... Did you know that Cab Franc is sometimes referred to as "Big Papa"? It is actually the parent grape of both Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, and one of the major red grape varieties grown worldwide. There's a little Friday fun fact for you! #paglioneestatewinery #paglionestrattoria #vqawithdinner
