Wines of Ontario

Lake Erie North Shore and Pelee Island Wineries and Wine Tours

The wine region of Southwest Ontario boasts the most sunshine hours in Canada. Couple that with a proximity to the warm, shallow waters of Lake Erie and you have the ideal microclimate for grapes to grow. Lake Erie North Shore and Pelee Island Wine Tours Canada's oldest commercial grape-growing area, lying on the same latitude as Rome and the wine regions of Northern California and Bordeaux. With its fertile soils, lengthy growing season, summer heat and moderating lake breezes, it's an ideal locale for growing grapes.
