Agricultural Entrepreneur of the Year --
Cynthia West-Chamberlain, Black Willow Winery [Niagara SBDC]
Black Willow Winery is located on the south shore of Lake Ontario, in the heart of the Niagara Wine Trail. The winery sits on 43 beautiful country acres and has the best soil and drainage in the area suited to growing grapes. Black Willow joined the Niagara Wine Trail in January of 2011. This fulfilled a longtime dream for Cynthia West-Chamberlain and her fellow owners. They converted a 35-year-old pole barn into their tasting room and production area, and hired a local winemaker as a consultant to ensure the quality of their wines. Black Willow is open seven days a week and currently offers nine wines. They also have several new varieties in development. The Niagara SBDC helped the clients put together their loan package & business plan to obtain start-up funding, develop a marketing strategy, and connect with local resources. Black Willow is one of the NYS wineries participating in the NYS Wine Outlet in Shanghai, and Cynthia joined an SBDC Fall 2012 trip to see the Wine Outlet. She is sharing her experience with other wineries in the Niagara area.
