Henry of Pelham Reception & Dinner

Ontario's Speck Brothers: The Competitive Advantage

Successful businesses always have a competitive advantage - something that sets them apart from their rivals. In the rapidly expanding Ontario wine industry, Henry of Pelham Family Estate is one of the most respected names. Under the business leadership of brothers Paul, Matthew and Daniel Speck, Henry of Pelham has been recognized with numerous domestic and international awards. Growing their wines on land that has been in their family since 1794, the brothers remain true to their roots. Environmentally conscious and proud of their heritage, they use only sustainably grown grapes from the Niagara Peninsula.

Join us in raising a glass with the Speck brothers, dynamic representatives of the Ontario wine industry, and celebrate the exceptional wines of Henry of Pelham at this unique and exclusive dinner event.
