Welcome to Colaneri
experience the passion
Our History
It all started in Frosolone, Italy…
a love story
It was there in those humble beginnings that, a young man, Joseph Colaneri, set his sights on a beautiful woman, Maria from the same hometown. She took one look at his blue eyes and curly hair and she was in love…
You'll feel as if you've been transported to the beautiful streets of the old country...
Designed by the Colaneri Family, the winery structure forms the shape of a “C”, not only for the family name, but to embrace the captivating view. Resembling a Romanesque style, the building is dedicated to our parents and all our ancestors who put their heart and soul into everything they did. The building sits in the heart of the vineyard, within the lush, pulsating vines.
The picturesque arch windows face westward allowing the breathtaking sunset to beam through. The retail store, open since September 2010, overlooks the production area where guests can experience the sights and sounds of the winemaking process. When phase two is complete, it will include the second story which features a walk-out patio, accentuating the view overlooking the vineyard. On a clear day we can see our friends in Toronto!
The building is 31,000 square feet and a beautiful fountain will be in the middle.
Come to see how far we have come and join us as we journey to our final stage of completion – a legacy in the making. We sincerely hope that you will visit us, enjoy our award winning wines and experience the passion with them and all that we do.
