Wine
Tours
Prince
Edward County is Ontario`s
newest wine region. The
growing season is as
long as the Niagara Region,
but the winters are colder.
Vineyards are next to
Lake Ontario, which has
a moderating effect on
the air temperatures.In
2000 we had one winery.
Today we have close to
a dozen. Several more
are in the building and
planning stages. www.pecountywines.ca/pecwa_content.html |
