Vintages New Release Collection – August 2, 2025

The relatively new kid on the block is Prince Edward County : a peninsula jutting into the northern reaches of Lake Ontario, whose limestone-rich vineyards are swept by cool lake breezes. The County’s first winery appeared in 1993, and the region has 22 operating today. Although such varieties as Riesling and Cabernet Franc are widely grown, the County built its reputation on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
