Good to know

Book lunch for about 1:30, after the two tastings, and don't plan anything after it. The driver can take a flight to share, or the wine by the glass at Sue-Ann Staff instead of a full tasting.

Plan B · If Henry of Pelham's restaurant is closed

13th Street in St. Catharines, about 10 minutes away, also has a restaurant. Check its lunch days on its page.

Getting there and back

About an hour and a quarter from Toronto on the QEW to Jordan. Flat Rock and Sue-Ann Staff are a few minutes apart on the Bench; Henry of Pelham is about 10 minutes east.
