Reviewed By Via_girl - Qualicum Beach, Canada

Surpised to find so much at this unassuming little park. There's a lovely walk along the water, beach, playground, picnic area, large gazebo, washrooms, and huge weeping willow trees for shade. The location on a peninsula leaves you feeling like you're on an island, a quiet oasis to enjoy nature. Lovely!

Intrigue Wines

When we were deciding what to call our winery we wondered; "What is it about wine that captivates us, that keeps us coming back for more, and that still interests us after all these years?"Some people like to know where the wine comes from. Others like to know who made it or how it will change with time. The foodies want to know what flavours they will find in their glass and how it will pair with a certain dish.We're all intrigued about wine. It's constantly changing and evolving. That is part of the excitement and allure of winemaking.We came together as partners out of a passion for wine. The strength of the partnership is in the complimentary experience that each of us brings to the table. A winemaker, an accountant, an internet entrepreneur and a business advisor

We stopped in while touring area wineries and were very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the wines. The size of samples was appropriate and the price of the wines very reasonable. Keep it up and we'll be back!
