Solstice Celebration at Hart & Hunter Winery

The Longest Day of the Year is Almost Here!

We’re getting ready to celebrate the summer solstice in the best way possible—with amazing wine, laid-back vibes, and plenty of time to soak it all in.

With 14+ hours of glorious daylight, December 21st is your chance to hit pause, escape the holiday madness, and relax with us at Hart & Hunter.

Why Does the Solstice Matter?

For winemakers like us, it’s not just about the sunshine (though we’ll admit, we love it). The summer solstice is a big deal in the vineyard cycle. Those extra hours of light help our vines ripen and thrive as they prepare for harvest. And honestly? That’s something worth raising a glass to.

What’s Happening?

We’re thrilled to announce our first-ever Sip Longer afternoon, where we’re keeping out doors open an extra hour so you can unwind and make the most of summer.

Here’s what you can look forward to:
Live music by the talented Hendomoonunit
Wine tastings featuring some of our favourite drops
Cheese boards (because wine, cheese, and music are the ultimate trio)

And if you’re loving the vibes, grab a bottle after your tasting, settle in at our lawn tables, and turn the afternoon into something unforgettable. ( did we mention we have some lawn games now? )

Why Sip Longer?

Let’s face it—this time of year can feel like a whirlwind. That’s why we’re giving you a moment to slow down, sip great wine, and take in the beauty of summer in the Hunter. It’s about savouring the sunshine, soaking up the views, and enjoying the little things before the year wraps up.
