Our Signature award winning wine. Beautiful deep ruby red colour with a wonderfully unique black currant aroma. This bold Black Currant European-style wine invokes old-world craft with new-world charm. Hints of cocoa and butterscotch complement the subtle oakyness to give our black currant wine a beautiful taste and finish. It pairs well with any red meat including lamb, steak, wild game and robust cheese.

Andre Delidais (1916-2004)

Andre, Dave's father, broke much of the land in DNA Gardens with his father, Eugene. They worked the horses and then moved to mechanized farming. A strong man, Andre was known to lift a 450-pound oil drum.

Wonderfully complex deep red wine. Chokecherries blended with Evans cherries make up this rich, smooth tasting wine. Hints of oak, cocoa and coffee add even more depth to this full bodied wine. Wild Chokecherries grow in the valleys and produce this rich, delightful table wine. This wine pairs well with grilled chicken, past, and soft cheese.

Eugene Delidais (1881-1969)

Eugene arrived in Canada in 1913 to homestead, though he was a skilled moonshine producer during the prohibition. Once, at a train station dock in Elnora, Eugene used an auger and siphon to retrieve his product right under the nose of a constable!

Classic apple flavours and aromas burst from this lovely white wine. Hints of citrus tannins lend crispness and liveliness to this wonderful fruit wine. Hearty orchard apple trees produce this bright and delicious apple table wine bursting with flavour! It will pair very well with any poultry shellfish or aged cheese. Also, excellent just on its own.

Mrs. Ross (1885-1957)
Every once in a while, you hear of a fearless woman. Mrs. Ross homesteaded near DNA Gardens when her husband left to fight in WWI. With three children in tow, she "grabbed the reins" and kept farming with horses, even with no power and running water. She was one tough lady.

A spectacular blend of saskatoon and black currant wines, Sassy Black offers the best of both wines, blended to perfection. Coffee and butterscotch notes with a slight aroma of oak make this a winner at the dinner table or at social functions. This wine pairs well with flavourful food and marinated meats.

In our historic orchards at Delidais Estate Winery, crows help themselves to tantalizingly sweet berries—and so starts the timeless dance between these sassy black beasts taunting us from the fruit orchards.

Beautiful rose colour, with wonderful fresh strawberry aromas. Hints of citrus and tannins from typhoon tea company the rich fruity taste of strawberries. This the perfect summer sipper and great for making a spritzer or sangria. Pair with charcuterie and poultry.

Mildred Delidais (1933-2013)
Mildred was as sweet as the prairie strawberries but don’t let that fool you! A mighty force, Mildred worked caring for family, friends, and the farm. She was a true prairie girl, loving life on the farm—all from the comfort of her wool socks and gumboots.

With each sip of this Black Currant spirit, you can enjoy a bit of the history that makes our prairie story unique.

A Steam Train Crossing the Trestle Bridge at Trochu.
In 1911, the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway built a line through section 24, where DNA Gardens developed. It forever changed the lives of the settlers. In 1932, it was filled with dirt, but why?

Come join us for a wine tasting tour to ponder this question!

Dave Delidais (1950)
Dave grew up on the farm where DNA Gardens produces 25 acres of tasty, hardy prairie fruit today. His childhood "pop gun" was his favorite toy, and he spent his free time "hunting".
