An absolute must-visit!
We stopped by about 10 wineries during our trip to Niagara-on-the-Lake, and Between the Lines was a major highlight. The winery offers a fantastic atmosphere—down-to-earth, comfortable, and completely unpretentious—and the wine tasted great. But what truly put our experience over the top was our host, Bri. She is incredibly knowledgeable while remaining fun, relatable, and hilarious. If you are looking for a fun, relaxed wine tasting, this place is an absolute must. And if you get Bri as your guide, you're in for a real treat!

Great experience!
Amazing winery!! Just did a tour, Ralf was great. My husband and I have done a ton of wine tours and visited many many wineries, and this was the first time we’ve ever done a ‘mystery black glass’ tour. Fun to make it into a game and compete guessing which notes and wines they are. Definitely recommend!

Definitely a must try!
We did this tasting as part of our girls trip. None of us have done a black glass tasting before and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Amy took wonderful care of us and was very personable. Changes up a wine tasting, and adds a different level of fun when you’re testing yourself on what’s in the glass. Highly recommend!!!!

It was an amazing experience to enjoy wine and also test our senses with the blind black glass tasting. Our hostess Lacey had a passion for the wine and gave us great descriptions after we guessed. We felt right at home.

Between the Lines Black Glass Wine Tasting in Niagara-on-the-Lake: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Niagara Falls & Around.
How much does Between the Lines Black Glass Wine Tasting in Niagara-on-the-Lake cost?
+
Prices start at $23 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Niagara Falls & Around usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Between the Lines Black Glass Wine Tasting in Niagara-on-the-Lake take?
+
Plan for about 0.8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Niagara Falls & Around is not rushed.
Is Between the Lines Black Glass Wine Tasting in Niagara-on-the-Lake worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 34 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Niagara Falls & Around, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Between the Lines Black Glass Wine Tasting in Niagara-on-the-Lake?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Between the Lines Black Glass Wine Tasting in Niagara-on-the-Lake suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Between the Lines Black Glass Wine Tasting in Niagara-on-the-Lake?
+
Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Niagara Falls & Around can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Niagara Falls & Around and add a light layer if any part of the 0.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Between the Lines Black Glass Wine Tasting in Niagara-on-the-Lake start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Niagara Falls & Around within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Niagara Falls & Around?
+
On Outty we rank every Niagara Falls & Around experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Seated Tasting Experience at Konzelmann Winery, Niagara-on-the-Lake Small Group Wine Tasting Tour, Niagara Falls Canada Tour: Boat, Journey Behind Falls & Whirlpool. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Niagara Falls & Around?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Niagara Falls & Around?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
