Hi! I'm Stephanie, a proud Nova Scotia enthusiast and wine lover, as well as your tasting guide, driver & all around coordinator. With over five years in the Nova Scotia wine industry, I’m thrilled to share my passion with you on tour—and get to know you along the way! My journey began on the waters of Halifax Harbour, where I introduced guests to our incredible local wines from aboard a sailboat, showcasing the city from a whole new perspective. Since then, my love for Nova Scotia and all things local has only grown. I bring this enthusiasm to every tour—ensuring your coffee, snacks, meals, and wines come from trusted local producers. Over the years, I’ve immersed myself in wine education, from studying wine-making and viticulture, to working hands-on in vineyards and cellars across the province. I’ve guided guests through the vines, led tastings on land and water, and tasted a lot of wine—all so I can help you discover the best the Annapolis Valley has to offer. Whether you're new to wine or a seasoned taster, I'm here to make your tour fun, relaxed, and unforgettable.

Visit a lobster pound for lunch & 2 wineries along the way.
Overview of your Halifax tour
Explore the best of Nova Scotia with a fun day tour led by yours truly, a local wine expert and seafood enthusiast. Nova Scotia's sparkling wines stand up to Champagne, and our wine region boasts the only wine appellation in North America - Tidal Bay! Tidal Bay was designed to pair perfectly with seafood, so there's no better pairing in Nova Scotia than a wine tour with a seafood spin! By booking this, you will indulge in wine tastings at two Annapolis Valley wineries, expertly chosen based on your preferred wine styles. This tour also offers the opportunity to savour a lobster lunch at the picturesque Halls Harbor Lobster Pound, overlooking the stunning Bay of Fundy. The cost of the lobsters may be market price, but I assure it's worth every penny! You will see one of the most amazing views of the highest tides in the world! For this tasting adventure, I proudly offer hassle-free transportation with door-to-door service, coffee, water, and snacks along the way!

Stephanie was very personable and knowledgeable about the wine industry in Nova Scotia. Fortunately, she was very flexible with our itinerary as our tender from the cruise ship was delayed by an hour.
