Tr e n d i n g
The world of winemaking is ever-changing and evolving.
Here are a few new terms you may have seen or heard but may not
know what they mean. Have a question about a wine or wine style?
Don't be shy - ask one of our Wine Country Ontario winery staff.
They are always happy to help - and they love talking wine.

VEGAN

A vegan wine uses no animal products in the winemaking process. While
some wines are made with traditional practices, using animal-derived
products for various processes during winemaking, vegan wines use
vegetable-based alternatives for these processes (e.g. fining or de-acidifying).
The best way to confirm a wine is vegan is to contact the winery directly.

ORGANIC
Certified organic wineries use 100% grapes grown without the use of chemical
pesticides, herbicides or synthetic fertilizers. Instead, they fertilize with
compost, compost teas, green manure and cover crops.

BIODYNAMIC

Biodynamic wines are generally certified through the Demeter Farm Standard,
which reflects the biodynamic principle of the farm as a living organism:
self-contained, self-sustaining, following the cycles of nature.

ORANGE WINE

Skin fermented white wines, or orange wines, are made from white or pink
grape varieties fermented in contact with the grape skins. In order to be
certified by VQA, the wine must be fermented on skins for a minimum of
10 days. Due to the skin contact fermentation, orange wines have more
tannin and often feature herbal notes and tea-like characteristics.

PÉT-NAT

Pét-nat, or Méthode Ancestrale, is a method of sparkling wine production.
Unlike the traditional method, in which sugar and yeast are added to the
bottle to begin secondary fermentation, pét-nat is created by bottling
partially fermented wine. The first and only fermentation occurs in bottle
and traps the CO2, creating pét-nat's bubbles.
