A few months back my wife and I had the pleasure of attending a dinner at Aure Winery in Beamsville. (Readers - not to mention the owners - will be glad that I resisted the obvious – “Auresome!” or “In Aure” - settling for a more prosaic title.)
Though a bit out of the way at the top of the Escarpment , it is a beautiful and welcoming family-run operation, with some interesting wines as well as a fine young chef in the kitchen of the Silo Bistro. (Kristin Allin is also Niagara-grown, or more accurately Niagara-trained as she was raised in Kilbride.)
