Ok, done with trip...these were the two gems we found:

konzelmann ice wine

Royal DiMaria

While there were some very fancy wineries...too fancy for me...these two
were not but the wines were incredible.

To find these, I had to almost go into a diabetic coma as we tried about 16
other wineries...tough.

I know it's a tough job but somebody has to do it. How much were
these two wines?

Konzelmanns was very reasonable.....the vidal 2006 that cooincedentally was
a Top 100 Spectator wine(they did not advertise either) was only left in a
200ml and it was about $50 CAD. They also had an interesting late harvest
Riesling Traminer...I loved this one, very interesting in 375ml for about
$30 CAD.

The Royal Di Maria....lets say it was an economic stimulous. I purhchased
some 375's 1998, had a cognac type quality, most complex, for about $79.95
and a Cabernet Fran, some Chinon and some Chardonney...they ranged from $129
to $359 per 375 ML.

The vingates were assorted on these 2004 mostly some 2005 and 2006.

Both wineries were of my favorite wines. There was some fancier
wineries...but these wines were the ones I personally enjoyed more than the
rest.
