Finding Your Favourite Ontario Wine

Choosing a wine with the VQA symbol means choosing authenticity. Every bottle is crafted from 100% Ontario-grown grapes, expressing the character, purity, and pride of our land.

 

Ontario's grape-growing story runs deep. From the earliest vineyards planted by European settlers to today's innovative winemakers, generations of growers have nurtured this craft with dedication and vision. Their commitment has helped Ontario wines earn international acclaim and a reputation for excellence.

 

Behind every bottle is an industry that fuels ou economy and strengthens our communities. Growers work year-round—through every season and every challenge—to cultivate the vineyards that define our wine regions. Many of Ontario's wineries are family legacies, lovingly passed down through six, seven, even eight generations.

 

So why not raise a glass to something truly local? Discover the vibrant flavours, unique varietals, and one-of-a-kind terroirs that make VQA and 100% Ontario wines so memorable.
