Field Stone Fruit Wines launched in July of 2005, as Alberta’s first estate winery. We were the first business to be granted a license under the Government of Alberta’s new cottage winery regulations, allowing fruit growers to manufacture and sell fruit wines. Our family-run winery and farm are nestled into 50 acres of mature berry orchards located forty minutes east of Calgary — just outside Stra
thmore — one of the sunniest regions in Canada. For more than a decade, our popular “U-Pick” Bumbleberry Orchards had been known for its exceptional fruit — harvesting plump, extra-sweet, sun-kissed berries grown using biological farming principles and the best of Mother Nature. Along with our noted world expert winemaker, Dominic Rivard, we developed our unique wines from saskatoon berries, strawberries, raspberries, chokecherries, black currants, red cherries and rhubarb into ten succulent and delicate combinations. All Field Stone wines are made from 100-percent Alberta-grown fruit, 80-percent of which is grown on the winery’s own orchard. Since 2006, the winery has been distinguished with dozens of awards and medals across its 10 varieties of fruit and dessert wines from national and international competitions. From orchard to bottle, farm to table, our wines grew from farmgate and winery direct sales to popular Farmers Market mainstays with every wine we have created being noted with awards.
