THE SPECK BROTHERS

 

BROTHERS PAUL, MATTHEW, AND DANIEL SPECK STARTED PLANTING VINEYARDS IN NIAGARA'S SHORT HILLS BENCH AS TEENS IN 1984.

TODAY, THE SPECK BROS. MAKE WINE, SERIOUS WINE. SERIOUSLY.

HENRY OF PELHAM - WINES OF ORIGIN

Henry of Pelham is our classically styled family of wines (named after a Great Grandpa). This is where it all began, our Estate vineyards on the Short Hills Bench, where we produce wines that are bright and fresh with an emphasis on fruit flavours.

CUVÉE CATHARINE

 

Named in memory of Henry of Pelham’s wife, widow and family matriarch, Catharine Smith, our award-winning Cuvée Catharine sparkling wine is made in the traditional method. A modern Niagara expression of a time-honoured wine style.

SIBLING RIVALRY

 

Whether they build you up or knock you down, no one gets you like your siblings. When you just can’t agree, hash it out over a glass of wine, or two. If all else fails, play rock, paper, scissors. It works for the Speck Bros. who’ve made wine together for over 30 years.

LAZZARA SECCO

Julia Lazzara was our great grandmother. Julia's ancestors and her husband emigrated to New York where the latter did fine marble work on the city's first skyscrapers. The label design, the style of wine, and of course the name, pay homage to our Italian ancestors.

REVEL CABERNET BACO NOIR

You demand a big, bold wine. REVEL is made from the ripest grapes grown in our warmest vineyards. Aging in oak barrels takes the rich flavour to a whole new level. Go large with REVEL Cabernet Baco Noir.

FREE BIRD RIESLING

 

At a time when freedom had to be won, it was bold imagination coupled with bravery that made our pioneering ancestor, Catherine ’Cat’ Smith, truly free. In the 1790’s, Cat and her husband, an Iroquois/Mennonite soldier and United Empire Loyalist, took a leap of faith and settled land overlooking a verdant valley in Niagara’s Short Hills Bench. In this area, the Scarlet Tanager and many other songbirds served as a backdrop to the daily chores and pleasures of family life.

This Mother’s Day, we raise a glass to Catharine. Our first known male ancestor in Canada fought with Butler’s Rangers during the American Rebellion... But it’s his wife who bore 14 children. That’s why we named the wine after her.
