Luckett Vineyards

In 2000, Pete Luckett purchased what at that time was a 92 acre open hay field overlooking the beautiful Gaspereau Valley in Nova Scotia. Over the following decade he spent time understanding the unique climates surrounding the powerful Bay of Fundy. He planted many and any-thing he could on the property - veg, fruits, herbs and of course, grapes. With the development of winemaking in the region, he realized his next chapter and began looking for a winemaker to help build what is now Luckett Vineyards. The winery opened it's cellar door in 2010 and a Grocer-Turned-Vinter was re-born. Experimenting with varietals, flavours, aging and process was in the Luckett DNA. The team worked hand in hand to overcome climate challenges and develop the processes to tender crisp, flavourful whites and beautiful, textured reds - cultivated right here in Nova Scotia. Over the years Pete would have most of family working for and performing tasks at the Vineyard. They loved seeing the customers enjoying moments, flavours, and the results of their hard work.. Today Pete is on to an exciting and ambitious new project across the pond in Portugal. Meanwhile his daughter Geena has taken over Management back home at the helm. Growing up in the business, Geena has seen it all and been alongside for all the bumps, as well as all of the special moments. The future is bright & exciting - just like our wines. Luckett Vineyards wouldn't be what they are today if it wasn't for their incredible team. The management team consists of the following leaders: Mike Mainguy, Winemaker Joe Elliot, Assistant Winemaker Marcel Kolb, Vineyard Manager Doug Ross, Sales Manager Jeremy Mott, Hospitality Manager Gillian Whalen, Office Manager Andrea Pyke, Wine Shop Manager Jeremy Beeton, Head Chef
