SEASON'S GREETINGS FROM THE CREW AT BLACK HILLS ESTATE WINERY!

Believe it or not, we had a snowfall here November 28th, the earliest we can recall. As you can see, the winter season has arrived!

Our 2004 wines are bottled and resting in the cellar and this year's vintage is now in barrel.

Construction at the Winery

Since the first vintage of our Nota Bene we have increased production each year by about ten per cent. In order to continue this production increase we are excited to be embarking on a new project -- the construction of a new larger facility. This will enable us to eventually use all the grapes our Sharp Rock Vineyard produces and to hopefully better meet demand for our wines. We invite you to visit our web site at www.blackhillswinery.com in the new year when we plan to begin posting pictures of the construction progress.

New Releases Announced April 1st, 2006

We are always thrilled to receive so many great e-mails regarding our wines and requests to be added to our e-newsletter list. Our April 1st, 2006 e-newsletter will once again announce our wine releases and it is at this time that you may place orders, so please be certain to notify us of any e-mail address changes by e-mailing info@blackhillswinery.com.

Wine Access Magazine Profile

Look for the December issue of Wine Access Magazine -- we are honored that Canada's premier wine monthly has written a feature story on our winery.

Happy Holidays!

Thanks to everyone for your past and continued support. Again, have a happy holiday season!
