Comment
-Canada boasts over 670 wineries, ranging from large vineyards in the most prolific regions (Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec and Nova Scotia) to small fruit farms in every corner of the country.-Canada's first commercial winery was founded in 1866, at the country's southernmost point: Pelee Island, in Ontario.
Canada is the world's largest producer of high-quality ice wine. Naturally sweet and intensely flavorful, this dessert wine is made exclusively from Canadian grapes (often of the vidal variety) that have naturally frozen on the vine. Producers harvest these fruits only when the thermometer reads -8°C or below, then press them immediately, before they thaw.
