Wineries

The world’s leading wine regions are found between the 30th and 50th parallels in both hemispheres. Ontario sits perfectly within this range, between 41 and 44 degrees north, benefiting from a climate and diverse soils that shape distinctive terroirs, ideal for producing exceptional cool-climate wines.

Ontario wineries have earned international acclaim for expressive red, white, rosé and sparkling wines, as well as remarkable late-harvest selections and world-renowned Icewine.

From established and boutique wineries to emerging wine country gems, experience scenic vineyard tours, curated tasting flights and farm-to-table cuisine inspired by the vine. Along the way, meet the personalities behind bold Pinot Noirs, vibrant Rieslings, elegant Rosés, refined Icewines and beautifully textured blends.

Turn your visit into an overnight getaway with an unforgettable vineyard escape.
