Horse Thief Vineyards
Land, Legacy, Rebellion
As the first wine released from Horse Thief Vineyard, this bottle marks the beginning of a new chapter on a historic fourth-generation family farm in Stewiacke, Nova Scotia. Crafted in small batches and shaped by the cool coastal climate, it reflects both the character of the land and the spirit of those who steward it.
Every bottle is made with patience, intention, and a deep respect for the stories that continue to unfold across generations.
First Tides
The First Ride Always Sets The Tone.
This lively blend, the first from Horse Thief Vineyard, opens with fresh stone fruit and subtle orchard notes, carried by crisp acidity and a smooth, refreshing finish.
Made for easy afternoons, long tables, and another glass.
