Thomas Bachelder has made wine all over the world. After studying at winemaking school in Beaune, vinifying the Lemelson Vineyards in Oregon, as well as brief work in Chile, he planted his roots in the Niagara Peninsula.

They started with cool-climate chardonnay before moving to his true love of pinot noir in the 2011
