Private tours can make winery requests but, we cannot guarantee all requests will be met. We will of course do whatever we can to meet your requests but, they are not guaranteed. The wineries have their own availability as well as host private events, corporate meetings and, such that can affect their availability. Any and all requests for any details pertaining to your tour need to be submitted with your original registration in the comments section of check-out or they will not be counted as valid. You will never be booked in for an add-on winery unless you request it, approve of the charges, and until we have your booking with the specific request(s) confirmed. Add-on wineries are simply locations that for one reason or another cannot be accommodated without an additional charge.

Shared tours are subject to the set itinerary for the day and cannot make requests to alter any part of the tour.

The shared tours have set itineraries, set pick-up time windows and cannot be customized by any guests. The private tours are of course private, customizable (pick-up time, tour details, lunch break, etc.) and, receive an extra winery stop as well as both a mini charcuterie pairing and winemaking facility tour.

The perfect sip of wine is an experience. It’s a swirl of the glass, aromas flowing, flavours rolling across your tongue. Let us introduce you to the Tzafona wine experience.

Hailing from the world-class wine region of the Niagara Peninsula, Tzafona’s grapes share their source with many renowned and award-winning wines. Niagara’s climate is comparable to the acclaimed French regions of Burgundy, and Bordeaux, with a mineral-rich fertile soil profile.

Tzafona wine is made from the very same grapes, using the same methods as other high-end producers. These grapes ripen and accumulate their flavour slowly, producing some of the world’s most complex, balanced, and food-friendly wines.

Hebrew for “northward,” Tzafona represents the best of Canada’s winemaking. That’s what Avraham Gislason, a wine-maker and orthodox rabbi, and Toby Berkel, an entrepreneur, had in mind when they started Tzafona.

They are pioneers with a passion: they’ve created an unmistakably delicious wine from the Niagara region — one that also happens to be kosher!

Elegant, world-class, kosher wine from Niagara.

That’s the spirit of Tzafona.

Yes, absolutely! We always have guests who want to know about buying wine online from the wineries that were a part of their tour!
