From vineyard to glass, this story takes readers inside Niagara-on-the-Lake’s Icewine culture, showing how Ontario VQA producers challenge perceptions of Icewine as purely a dessert wine. With behind-the-scenes insights, unexpected food pairings and a look at the precision required to make “liquid gold,” it offers a fresh reason to rediscover one of Ontario wine country’s most iconic styles.
We acknowledge that our wineries and vineyards are on the traditional territories of the Anishinabewaki, the Attiwonderonk, the Haudenosaunee, the Mississauga and Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, the Ojibwe, the Odawa, and the Potawatomi People. As guests of this land, we thank Indigenous Peoples for caring and protecting the lands and waters on which we work and live. In the spirit of peace, friendship and respect to all Indigenous Peoples who have and continue to live and work on these lands, we will continue to honour this place we call home.
