D’Angelo
Estate Winery holds the distinction of being the only winery to win
back-to-back gold medals for Ice Wine at the Cuvee
Awards.
The 1996
D'Angelo vintage of ice wine won a double-gold medal for 'Best
Dessert Wine' at the Great Lakes Wine Competition and the
D'Angelo 1996 Foch was ranked in the top 100 wines in the world.
One of Sal's most cherished awards was the 'Best of the
Best' award for his 1993 Pinot Noir.
 
In 1999,
Sal D’Angelo was the first recipient outside of the Niagara region
ever to win the coveted Grape King Award. The prestigious
award, begun in 1956, is presented each year to officially proclaim
the highest quality vineyard in the province of Ontario for that
year. It was established to recognize the tremendous efforts put
forth by the winning vineyard to achieve production of the most
superior quality vineyard in Ontario for that season. The award's
recipient is designated by research and viticultural specialists
from the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs in the
province as having 'The Best of The Best' vineyard for the
year.
