Located between 41° and 44° North, Ontario's Wine Country is situated in the heart
of the world's fine wine zone. Stretching across 17,000 acres (6,900 hectares),
our vineyards are made up of complex limestone-based soils created by glaciers
thousands of years ago. Ontario's appellations, geographically defined wine areas,
benefit directly from their proximity to three of the five Great Lakes of North America,
the largest freshwater system in the world. This unique combination of latitude,
lakes and limestone is the foundation on which Ontario is making globally acclaimed wines.

LAKE ERIE NORTH SHORE
Sunny days, cool breezes, bright fruit
* Ontario's southernmost region benefits from warm temperatures and
a long growing season
* The increased sunshine and the warm, shallow waters of Lake Erie,
afford excellent ripening conditions for more full-bodied wines
This appellation includes Ontario's newest sub-appellation, known as the
South Islands, which includes well - known Pelee Island.

P R I N C E E DWA R D CO U N T Y
Lake winds, stony soils, signature style
* Lake effect temperatures, a limestone base and stony soil create concentrated
fruit with a uniquely crisp minerality
* Ontario's northernmost region is a virtual island at the eastern end of
Lake Ontario with more than 800 kilometres of shoreline, including renowned
Sandbanks Provincial Park

NIAGARA PENINSULA
Diverse glacial soils, lakeside vineyards, a world of character
* Ontario's oldest wine region draws its cool-climate character from winds off the
Escarpment and Lake Ontario
* These complex soils are perfect for a wide range of grapes
This appellation encompasses 10 sub-appellations:
Lincoln Lakeshore, Vinemount Ridge, Creek Shores
Beamsville Bench, Twenty Mile Bench, Short Hills Bench
(when grouped together forms a regional appellation called the Niagara Escarpment)
Niagara Lakeshore , Four Mile Creek, St. David's Bench, Niagara River
(when grouped together forms a regional appellation called Niagara-on-the-Lake)
