I went end of July 2024 with my family and in-laws. Ordered 6 pizzas, and did the wine and vinegar tasting. Food service was smooth, we ate it outside at the picnic tables available. The wine and vinegar tasting was very enjoyable with Linda! She was very knowledgeable and funny, and was very accommodating with some of us coming in and out of the tasting to tend to our kids. I purchased a few bottles of the Pinot Gris, and the following vinegars: peach, raspberry, maple balsamic, their premium balsamic. I would definitely come here again, very laid back.

We stopped in for lunch and I couldn’t stop talking about how good the wood fire pizza was throughout the day. We ordered the Aloha pizza, half with cheese, half without cheese due to dietary restrictions. I can’t get over how good it was without cheese. I will definitely be coming back.

Black Prince Winery & Canadian Vinegar Cellars offers a unique and delightful experience that goes beyond just wine tasting. The Century Barn & Barrel House adds a rustic charm, where you can explore the art of vinegar-making alongside their fine wines. The wood-fired pizza is a must-try, perfectly complementing their wines with its fresh, flavorful ingredients. It's a fantastic destination for a day trip, offering something for everyone—from wine enthusiasts to families looking for a fun outing.

This place was amazing! Such friendly staff, asking your preference on wines before tasting was a plus for me as I'm not a wine drinker. I didn't think I would care for the vinegar tasting but that was delicious!! So many different flavors to choose! I like that ideas for dishes to go with the vinegars and wines were suggested also. And while you are there don't forget the wood fired pizza!! The vinegar went great with it!!! Definitely will be returning!

Quaint spot in the heart of Prince Edward County. Great wine selection available for tasting and purchase. I love their signature Cabernet Franc, but my taste was more aligned to their Pinot Noir which we bought. Great service. Knowledgeable staff. Great atmosphere. I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area.

Jeff and the team at the black prince winery are simply terrific. We hosted a night before the wedding pizza and wine reception for 65 guests and everything was spot on. Nice venue, good pizza and wine and most importantly super service. Leading up to the event emails were answered promptly and attentively. If you are in the picton area make sure you drop by for a wine tasting and pizza. If you want to host a group they will take care of you. Special thanks to MacKenzie and Sadie who along with owner Jeff and Lisa took care of us. PS. Their cab franc is terrific.

Worst wine experience of my life! Let me set the stage. Im a sommelier, wine educator, and worked in some of the finest private clubs and restaurants in Canada. Ive been fortunate enough to have tried almost every major fine wine on the planet. This isnt it!! I love to promote small wineries and help them get recognition, but not this place. Theres a reason I havent heard of it in thirty years in the business. Some red faced guy(daily drinker) was condescending and its like he was too important to serve the likes of us. You know, people with money that want to spend it on wine. I suspect their vinegars are good, but I wasnt that willing to part with cash after the wine experience. No door handle? Spiders and webs all over the barrels within customers reach? Overall a very very dirty place. Definitely not up to any health code. I happen to know a close relative in that very department in your area! I wasted $29.99 ish on a bottle of cab. franc reserve. Ill delete my negative review if they would be willing to reimburse me $30 for the oxidative vinegar wine I poured down the drain.

Our wine tour guide mentioned the vinegar tasting at Black Prince. In addition to a great selection of wine, we ended our stay by trying various vinegars, and the taste blew us away. It was one of the more unique experiences we had in the county, and were thrilled with the service and the owners kindness. I will absolutely be going back!

In the past always loved to stop for pizza and drinks. This last time might have destroyed any chance of coming back. Have always been able to get 1/2 & 1/2 pizza. They refused. Too busy...5 min call back to get our pizza everyone standing around, no pizza in oven, no prep.

While I would normally give 4 because it closes to tastings at 6 even though the bistro sells pizza and we were going to taste then have a bite to eat, I m giving a full 5/5 because they were very gracious and gave us a tasting even though we were 10 minutes late to the tasting room. We thoroughly enjoyed the wine as well as the vinegars. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and fun. Pizza was delicious! 10/10 would recommend.

2021: Barrel House Wood fired pizza at the winery is fantastic. Outside seating only. Nothing fancy. But pizza crust is one of the best weve ever had. Husband had the Aloha. A spicy version of a Hawaiian pizza. I had the Margherita. Nice drizzle of balsamic on it. Probably their own balsamic. Nice! Visiting again in 2022. Pizza still great. Consistent quality. Nice friendly staff. Recommend the exceptional, full-bodied Cabernet Franc Reserve 2020. Maybe lie it down for 1 to 2 years to soften. Really enjoyed again! 2023: Pizza is still fantastic. Crust is light, tasty and crisp. Margherita and Aloha pizzas - really enjoyed! 2021 Cabernet Franc was great . 2021 Pinot Gris was slightly sweet, refreshing and smooth. Sherry balsamic vinegar is really special. Deven helped us with our tasting. Really knowledgeable with unique insights and interesting facts. Very welcoming and friendly. We bought all three products! Thank you !

December 22, 2023

I wanted to love the pizza here because of the great reviews. Expecting amazing quality because it is on the pricier end, we were extremely disappointed. Last night we ordered a meat lovers and a margherita and we received almost no toppings on either pizza. The sauce was sugary and the dough was very mediocre. It felt like we were eating bread. Honesty, I never write reviews but our whole party was very confused how this place had good ratings. I m going to assume it was a one-off for them and hope people receive better quality in the future.

What a gem! We had the 4-flight tasting. Two reds (pinot and cab/merlot blend) and two whites (riesling and sauv blanc). So different to what I am used to. To me the best one was the red blend. Have you watched the movie Ratatouille? When the mini chef tried different food to create the magic effect? That s exactly what I felt when drinking it. WOW!! Can t wait to have it with some picanha. Our server was so friendly and talkative. We had a great conversation about food, wines, and pairings.

We came here for a tasting of wine and stayed to taste the vinegars as well - and trust me, you want to do that. The wines are hand made, bottled, labelled and sold - everything by hand. Our host helped us through the tasting very well giving us tidbits about the origins of the winery, the name, and of course, the wine. We loved some of the lines like The Pinot Noir grabs hold of your tongue and doesnt let go had us laughing, but then after trying it - agreeing! Small, locally-produced wine at its best. The vinegars - fermented for years in older barrels - really have character and the taste blows your tastebuds away. Certainly a unique offering in Prince Edward County - do not skip it.

Nice place with picnic tables and accessible to families. The wine tasting ended at 6 p.m. the day we went even though opening hours are until 8 p.m. My partner was able to do it but not me. The pizza is excellent but ask for the waiting time before being served. With young children sometimes you have to be patient!

The wine is subjective. It wasnt for us. I didnt mind the service behind the counter giving us our tasting, they were courteous and passionate about their wine. Onto the Barrel House Wood fire pizza... TOURIST TRAP!!! I give this one star. If you are going to charge me $24+tax for a small Margherita pizza. It better have fresh whole Basil on it, not dried crumpled basil from the grocery store. The balsamic glaze doesnt belong on that pizza either. As an Italian, Im insulted. Just like 555 BrewCo. If youre going to attempt Italian wood oven pizza, go take some lessons please. I commend Anglican folk for trying, but please.... You have the gift of using one of these wood oven beasts I only dream of having one day and you failed. The pizza was not good. At all. Definitely not $24 good..

I love Black Prince winery. They give you 4 tastings and also a taste of their vinegars. The idea of tasting vinegars didn t appeal to me but I tried and you know they taste really good? One I could just taste on a light salad, no oil needed with that vinegar. The manager told some great jokes first by saying these are his regular; jokes. My family were visiting from New Brunswick and were very impressed and we had done a lot of wineries and they loved the ambiance of Black Prince best plus bought a lot of wine to take home.

Needed a pitstop and was recommended here for their pizza. Tasty meal, nicely spaced out patio and left happily full! Got their Aloha pizza with their garlic aioli. Quite delicious, toppings well balanced and flavored, the dough itself had a nice bite and chew that was perfect with the dip.

My husband and I had a great experience here. It was more than just a wine tasting experience; Curtis shared a wealth of information with us about the grapes, the barrels, and even the vinegars available there. I highly recommend this winery. It was perfect going in February because they are open and able to spend more time explaining about their history, wine making techniques, and other informative tidbits.

Had a wine & vinegar tasting with Kurtis who shared the history of the barrels & how wine & vinegars were made. Never actually though I would enjoy vinegar tasting so much in my life. The wines were awsome!!! The Risling & Chardonnay are very good and the Cabarnet franc & Pinot noir were from another world. They have White Hemp Wine that tastes like flowers & aged white wine in whiskey barrel that tastes like honey Highly recommended

We visited this winery somewhat spontaneously to end our small winery tour of Prince Edward County over the Civic Holiday weekend, and out of the half dozen or so wineries we visited this was hands down the most satisfying. The wine tasted great (some really unique wines like the hemp wine) and also one of the few if not the only winery in PEC to produce and sell flavoured vinegar, which were also exquisite. When we arrived we were delightfully greeted by an adorable cat I assumed belonged to the owner? lol They have a small firewood pizzeria area in the back. Jeff, the actual wine maker and not just some random winery staff, was our wine tasting guide and he was not only very knowledgeable but he also had a great sense of humour and was very accomodating to our group of seven. Overall, this winery was very charming and didn t reek of prentiousness the way the other wineries we visited did. Well done, Black Prince. I only wish for the very best on your future endeavours.

What I like: cute rustic garden, the wine, the crunchy crust of the pizza. What I do not like: the price for the pizza, you can not charge people $23 for a pie and 18% is the lowest tipping option for guests, especially if guetss self serve. Definitely not top notch ingredients like the owner claims, I could taste the sugar in the tomatoes sauce I like the setting and the wine so I would recommend it but please reconsider the value you offer to visitors.

This place has selection of local beer and wood oven pizza (wine available at the bar as well), not to mention a wide variety of vinegars. If youre a fan of vinegars (as a salad dressing or other use), you wont be disappointed. You will find aged vinegars (i.e. 19 year old) which should be a fantastic seasoning.

Awful experience. Wine was mediocre at best. Tasting was done in plastic cups without even a cursory rinse between wines. Host was unenthusiastic in his presentation, not engaging at all. He also seated another party within 2 feet of our own, without any concern for social distancing. One star only for the vinegar, which is tasty on its own, but served straight with no bread or cracker accompaniment, and bottles ~ $30 for only about 500mL

I visited Black Prince Winery with my Mom about a month ago and had a really nice visit. Their winemaker, Geoff Webb, was serving samples so we had an excellent opportunity for one-on-one time. Aside from wines, Black Prince also produces vinegars (I purchased balsamic) and, if memory serves, they also have 1 sherry for tasting. Another interesting thing Black Prince sells is a product called Hemp Wine. Certainly its important to note that this winery has a variety of styles! If you go during slow season, like we did, its very cool to meet the winemaker and he answered all of my questions. On the down side, we were hoping to get pizza but it was not open that day (thats our own fault since its an outdoor oven- shoulda known better when its cold outside!). Mom and I both agreed that we want to go back again when the weather is warmer and try the food. Geoff also gave us a great location to have lunch in town there in Picton. Thanks again to Geoff for making it a memorable experience on my first trip out to Prince Edward County. I am sure well be there again soon!

I purchased 3 bottles of wine that were not to my personal satisfactory. The owners at Black Prince Winery personally contacted me and shipped THREE brand new bottles of the same wine I purchased 4 hours away to my residence completely free of charge! Absolutely amazing! They are extremely professional and truly stand behind their product. What a wonderful winery and staff, I highly recommend them to anyone in the Picton area!

We stopped in at Black Prince Winery for the wood fired pizza. We enjoyed the casual vibe at the winery and chatting with Pete about the process of manufacturing barrels and making vinegars. The pizza was amazing and the caprese salad, with a blueberry balsamic reduction made on-site, was easily the best one I ve ever enjoyed.. better than those I ve eaten in Rome! A very family friendly winery too, and we will definitely visit again.

This was the second winery on our self guided diy winery tour. It wasnt actually going to be part of our itinerary but the opportunity presented itself and there we were standing at the counter of the Plack Prince Winery. So glad we dropped in because if I look back on the day I believe it would have been the most informative of our winery visits. Loved the low frills atmosphere compares to the other wineries we visited and the gentleman behind the bar gave us all kinds of personal input and even showed us videos of the barrels being flamed. The venue is very inconspicuous and not obvious from the road. We were introduced to delicious vinegars of various flavors as well. I highly recommend this winery as a stop any time!

Edited - One of the staff was extremely rude during our wine tour. We were originally told we could bring a snack in, which we were enjoying by the picnic tables, then one of the staff approached my group extremely aggressively telling us to pack up and leave. He could have simply explained that we must of misunderstood and that we can stay but would need to pack up the food. We then went to Sandbanks Winery, who welcomed us in immediately and confirmed outside food was not a problem. I would definitely not recommend the Black Prince Winery. Response: Your response was a complete lie! Maybe you forgot that you told our wine tour we could eat. For your information there was no one waiting for tables. Sandbanks does serve food as some of us also got a snack there! Each of us also purchased a bottle of wine, which we were going to at your winery, so you lost customers because of your aggresive (not polite) reaction. She actually said she was not drinking, so to stop speaking to us in such a rude and aggressive manner. Maybe if you had calmed down, you would have heard her correctly. We did leave immediately! The rest of the staff was really nice, as previously stated it was one employee. So not sure why you are discussing the staff in your response.

December 22, 2019

Worst customer experience I ve ever had. Hostile man yelling at his customers for a misunderstand with tour guide (no conversation with us first). Insulted us! Even so we respected what he did say, right away. Says WE were disrespectful! Lies multiple times. Slandering on social media. It s just disgusting. Worst display of narcissism I ve ever seen.

Great wine, great pizza, great people. We loved it and came back the next day to get more. Thin crust pizza, not too big, enough for two people. They have a pizza and two glasses of wine special for $30, and you can taste the wine to choose which one you like with your pizza.

Black Prince has for a number of years been on my Must Go To list while visiting the area. They have a lovely selection of both wines and vinegars which never disappoint. The staff at the tasting bar have always been very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful however yesterday, I was appauled by the conduct of the seniour gentleman on sight. It was terrible how he reprimanded the young gentleman who was assisting a group of people who were sampling vinegars. The issue, I believe was related to an undercharge of a previous customer. Being a DM myself, having been in business for many yesrs, I have never spoken to my employees in this manner, let alone in front of patrons. There is a time, place and manner to address matters, of which were obviously completely disregarded. The young attendant was visably shaken up by the incident. Although, nothing was said by the employee after-the-fact, I did extend some words of support and encouragement. One thing I have learnt over the years is that if you want respect, want employees to meet expectations, be Magnetic as front people for your business WE as employers must be professional at all times, create a positive working environment for our employees and ensure that they know that they are valued. Final note: The rating is based on the product and assistsnce received. I did not think it appropriate to penalize based on the incident witnessed. I hope this feedback will be reflected upon and applied as a learn for future. Thank you.
