Rock And Grapes Presents:
James Oatway is here to talk about all things music, wine and some other gripes and grapes. You will hear from everyone from musicians to winemakers and other industry insiders. If you're a human being with a soul - you rely on music and booze to get you through your life. We are all moved by a spirit whether it's in a glass or coming out of the speakers.

Dobbin Estate
This week I visit Dobbin Estate. Dobbin Estate has been designed to be a premium winery and the consulting team of Ann Sperling and Peter Gamble have made certain that all conditions are perfect for this ambitious endeavour. With North and South facing slopes, Dobbin Estate is primed to bring forth Riesling, Chardonnay, and Cabernet Franc with a European sensibility that comes though in your glass. Ontario wines have grown by leaps and bounds, and the Ontario Wine Industry is now in a phase where fine wine, meant to be cellared for perhaps decades, is being created right here. We are living in a time where the list of pioneering Ontario winemakers keeps growing, and with this burst of talent, meticulous attention to detail and passion, we can firmly state that we are on par with the rest of the best.
