Start your day at Coffin Ridge with a wine tasting led by our knowledgeable staff. From there you can retreat to the deck for a glass of wine and our vintner's plate made up of local artisanal breads and cheeses which have been specifically paired with the glass of wine you are drinking. Relax, listen to music and enjoy the Coffin Ridge experience.

We invite you to discover the beauty of our vineyards and taste distinct cool climate wines made from the grapes grown on the vines overlooking Georgian Bay. At the winery tasting room you may choose to taste any four wines available at the tasting bar. Spoil yourselves with a Wine & Cheese Tray, starting with a welcome bubbly followed by a sampling of three wines paired with three artisan cheeses. Open year round Wednesday to Sunday 12 – 5pm.

We produce hand-crafted hard ciders in small batches from select varieties of heritage apples grown in our own orchard or supplied by local Georgian Bay apple growers. Our cidery and tasting room are housed in an historic post and beam century barn. Comfortable indoor and outdoor seating is provided to enjoy our cider by the glass, paired with artisanal cheeses.
