Kerner is one of Niagara’s best-kept secrets—and Lakeview Wine Co. has long been a champion of this aromatic, cool-climate grape. Grown in the Lincoln Lakeshore area of the Niagara Peninsula, Kerner thrives here thanks to the moderating influence of Lake Ontario, producing wines with both ripe fruit expression and vibrant natural acidity.
For this vintage, Lakeview selected Kerner grapes harvested at optimal ripeness to highlight the varietal’s unique character. The fruit was gently pressed, then slowly fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks, a deliberate approach that preserves freshness, aromatics, and precision. The result is a wine that feels expressive yet balanced—never heavy, always refreshing.
Kerner is often compared to Sauvignon Blanc, but it brings its own personality to the glass: slightly rounder on the palate, beautifully aromatic, and effortlessly drinkable. It’s a wine that appeals to seasoned wine lovers while still being approachable for anyone looking to explore something new from Niagara.
This is the kind of bottle that quietly impresses—perfect for entertaining, gifting, or adding a distinctive white to your personal lineup.
