Bachelder

Inspired by years spent making wine in Burgundy, Oregon, and Niagara, Thomas Bachelder and Mary Delaney craft pure, subtle, and elegantly textured wines that express the essence of their terroir with minimal intervention. Their delicately perfumed wines offer classic, refined fruit and the texture of the silt, clay and dolomitic limestone-laced ancient lake-bed soils of Niagara.

In Ontario, with terroirs formed by the escarpment and the retreat of glaciers, Bachelder chooses those that truly express the Niagara ‘sense of place’. He uses wild yeasts, grapes from older vineyard parcels and encourages low-impact viticulture – especially organics – wherever possible. Everything goes into mostly neutral barrels for long aging and development – barrels carefully chosen for their “transparency” and ability to help express terroir.”
