My heart will always be with this winery ❤️‍🩹

We started our vine and wine adventure in 2001.
Twenty-five years later, I reflect on the many changes we've experienced, planting vines, vintages we've enjoyed, meeting thousands of people, making new friends, kids growing up, getting older, and losing our loved ones.

Like all the first wave vintners in the County, we built from the ground up. Hard work, facing challenges, fixing equipment, praying for rain, hoping for sun, and the thrill of the harvest and flurry of activity that comes with every vintage.

We had three generations of Del-Gatto working, laughing and creating a vineyard life ... born from the dream of one man that wanted to make wine. Thank you, Pat, for being the dreamer that brought us here.

What a fantastical time we've had.

This year is for change:

This post is the first in the series of Countdown to Close.

Our current inventory is priced at $15/bottle:
Vidal 2023
Pinot Grigio 2023
Frontenac Noir 2021
Bella Luna sparkling 2023

Onsite retail/tasting April to June:
Saturdays 11-5
Sundays by chance

Online ordering 24/7

Then:
We'll be closing our retail and online store on June 27th - permanently.

We've enjoyed and are grateful to the wine and hospitality industry for all the opportunities but mostly for the amazing people we've met.

So for these next few months I'll be in the store; stop in and stock up on the final Del-Gatto vintages or order online.

Until my next post,

Happy New Year! 2026 marks my 10th season of touring Prince Edward County. Blessed with amazing clients over the years, my hope is to continue to provide unique experiences for intimate groups of 4 or less. Trust in Gabrielle & her small crew of drivers to guide you off the beaten path for a local's take on tasting PEC.

Something to look forward to during this inclement weather we've been having. Please enjoy yourselves safely this Winter season.

❄️⛸️UPDATE ⛸️❄️

Potter Settlement Artisan Wines Inc. ❄️⛸️ Northern Lights Ice Skate Trail.

Our team spent the last 2 days stringing half-a-kilometer of lights around the grapevines/vineyard and the ice rink.

This is an image of what it looked like tonight. You can see the winery in the background in the distance.

Absolutely magical. 😍

Now we’re putting lights in the forest…

We’re hard at work on this to make it the prettiest skate trail in Ontario and we’ll keep you posted.

We live in a seriously creative community. With the arrival of late Fall weather, what better time it is to visit local art galleries and artist run studios.
