We ordered a charcuterie board to partake while wine tasting and bought several bottles because it was so good! Besides this, it was a gorgeous place, inside and out.

Rideau is one of our favorite vineyards in the area. We love many of their varietals and have come back many times. Reza has always taken great care of us. However, with the new COVID restrictions, things have changed. We had a reservation which we arrived promptly for, and found a great table on the covered deck.
We were given a choice of wine flights which was great. But the entire wine flight was delivered in individual carafes all at once. They had to have been pre-poured and sitting on a counter waiting to go out. It was a 100 degree day, the whites were hot when they got to the table, and by the time we got to the reds they were really hot.
We purchased the wines that we know and love there, based on our past visits. If anyone from the winery actually reads this review, please visit some of the other local wineries and figure out a way to make the Rideau experience better. We will be back to purchase wine, but not to taste until the pandemic is over.
But THE WINES ARE FANTASTIC !!

What a spectacular place! The house/cottage is surrounded by flowers. There is a grassy lawn. You sit outside looking at the house and flowers. Although we had a reservation, we chose to sit in the overflow area, which requires the patron to go to the bar. This was amazing! Highly recommend this for ambiance and a pleasant experience.

On a 3 day visit to the area, we stopped at 16 wineries. By far, this was the finest stop. We were greeted by Reza in a beautiful tasting room. We had never been to Rideau. The wines were extraordinary. We particularly liked the Estate Viognier, the Estate Grenache and the Englishmen Sangiovese. We will visit here on our next trip for sure.

We had an amazing time visiting the Rideau Vineyard. We had the pleasure of meeting the former owner. Iris Rideau the first black woment to own a vineyard. She wrote a book to documennt her peronal journey. We visited the Rideau Vineyard with my wife and family. We enjoyed Pinot Noir, brassman Rhone White Blend. Syrah's & Rose. Red blends were good as well. We enjoyed wine tasting on the grounds. Iris stop by and greeted guests. We enjoyed live music and sipped wine and feeling fine. A must visit.

It was a beautiful day at Rideau winery. The property is very inviting. Indoor and outdoor tastings. We went on a Monday it wasn’t as busy as usual. The weekends are full of fun, corn hole, maybe music etc.
We enjoyed our winetasting and just chilled. Our host was very informative and really nice. Great attitude!
$25 for a tasting, good pours.
If you buy some wine they’ll compliment a tasting. We’d go back.

What a wonderful vineyard. The wine is special. Especially their Pinot and grenache. And the white are wonderful too. The grounds are beautiful and the people are warm, kind and welcoming. It feels like a family.
Plan to spend 2x the amount of time you expect. To soak it all in. You will not want to leave!

We spent a wonderful afternoon basking in the sun right on the grass alongside the Rideau house. We had fun during our wine tasting and decided to spend the afternoon there. They have wonderful music playing in the background so you lose track of time. Definitely worth the drive.

Hello, is it acceptable to bring an 11 and 9 year old to this vineyard? If so, would the tour be appropriate? I believe they'd enjoy the beauty of the grounds. They are accostumed to travel and touring museums etc. Thank you.

Yes, this place is very family friendly. However, you should probably call them to ask about children on the tour.
