About Us

At Marble Mountain Estates, the coast sets the pace.

We are an estate farm winery and vineyard located on the shores of the Bras d’Or Lake in the heart of Cape Breton. We are passionate about producing small-lot, handcrafted wines that are true expressions of our coastal terroir and winemaker.

Guests can experience guided tastings and tours, island-inspired small plates from our kitchen, curated coastal provisions at our merchant-inspired wine shop, or stay at our sea & vine boutique accommodations. In addition, we partner with other local tourism operators to offer curated packages that connect visitors more deeply with Cape Breton’s culture, landscapes, and coastal experiences along the lake.

As a young and growing winery, opening for the first time this season, we are building both our brand and our team. We’re looking for people who want to be at the heart of the guest experience—welcoming visitors, guiding them through tastings, and sharing the story behind our wines, vineyards and culture here on the island. Every interaction should feel genuine, personal, and memorable.

We are a small, collaborative team, and everyone plays an important role. The ideal person helps us to host tastings, guide guests through the vineyard, help our kitchen team with seasonal dishes, or assist with events and experiences. No two days look exactly the same here,



and that’s part of the magic.
