STANDOUT SELECTIONS One of the great things about wine is its versatility. Here in Ontario, where the climate is broadly cool, we produce a surprisingly dynamic range of styles. Hinterbrook makes a robust red from the temperate shores of Lake Ontario; Oxley crafts a ripe, elegant Pinot from the upper reaches of Lake Erie; and Magnotta creates a lively, aromatic white blend from vineyards across Niagara.

STYLE SPOTLIGHT If you ask wine writers around the globe to name a white wine Ontario has mastered, they’re bound to say Riesling. The variety is perfectly suited to our cool climate, and its knack for conveying minerality makes for remarkably expressive wines. These three examples showcase the complexity and character for which Ontario Riesling has become famous.
