About Us

Welcome to Jenkins Vineyards

Wine brings people together. At Jenkins Vineyards, we celebrate the moments that happen around a shared table, from everyday catch-ups to special occasions.

We invite you to explore our store, find something for your next gathering, and make us part of your story.

Meet the Family

Quinton

Owner, Farmer, Grape Grower, Winemaker, Equipment Sales (all the hats really)

Quinton grew up outside of London, Ontario in Belmont, dairy farming with a few side ventures into sheep and hay. He graduated from Niagara College’s Viticulture and Winemaking program in 2013. He worked in the industry at various farms until what is now Jenkins Vineyards was purchased in 2019.

The process of opening a winery started in 2021 and, until he was able to make his own wine, Quinton sold the grapes to various labels. He continues to do custom farm work and grow for a few labels still. Some local, some in other provinces.

His approach to winemaking is to keep things simple and let his work as a grape grower shine through. Simple, easy drinking wine is the goal.

Aside from grapes, Quinton is always thinking of what could be next for growing, 2026 brought on flowers, 2027 tbd!

When he’s not farming, Quinton likely has a sports game on the tv, food on the barbecue, or is playing hockey.

Ruth and Gord

Owners, Landscapers, and General Do It alls (also Quinton’s Mom & Dad)

Ruth and Gord still live in Belmont, but they thankfully spend many days at Jenkins Vineyards. The two of them helped transform the retail store from 1800s farm house to what you’ll enjoy today.

You may see them out and about on the property tending to the gardens and lawn or helping out in the store.

Kaylee

Design, Social, Merch (and Quinton’s Fiancée)

Kaylee’s intro into the wine scene (aside from just being a fan of the product) began when she met Quinton back in 2021. Since then she’s watched and supported Quinton as he navigated the world of creating his own winery. Her skills and talent as a University of Waterloo Fine Arts and Business graduate have come into play in the more recent years. From the logo to labels, as well as most (non wine) items for sale in the store were created by her. The website and social media also falls into her realm. While she is often around the vineyard her “day job” is in the sky as a flight attendant.
