Donald Ziraldo was the co-founder of
Inniskillin Wines in Niagara and a pioneer in the Ontario wine industry and the
creation of Canadian Icewine. Ever wonder what happened to him after he sold
the winery to Constellation Brands? He started his own brand of Icewine and
Riesling table wines under his own name and in 2011 took on management of a
Port winery (Senhora Do Convento) in Portugal’s Douro Valley along with his
wife Victoria. The Ports are fabulous as are the table wines produced by this
house. His own brand of Icewine from the old Inniskillin property is pretty
fantastic too. He now divides his time between Portugal and Niagara and spends
much time on the road promoting all his ventures.
