As dusk eases over the vineyards, the rows of vines take on a slate-blue hush and the air smells faintly of ripening grapes and wood smoke. Guests board an air-conditioned shuttle in Niagara Falls or Niagara-on-the-Lake, and the tour slips west along Lakeshore Road, pausing at small estates where sunset light softens the oak barrels and glassware alike.
