Between the Lines Winery

Between the Lines Winery grows grapes at Niagara-on-the-Lake, in the Niagara Peninsula appellation. It dates its founding to 2010.

Where it sits

Between the Lines Winery is at Niagara-on-the-Lake, inside Niagara Peninsula — one of the three appellations of origin recognised under Ontario's VQA system. What that claim means on a label, and how the boundary is defined in regulation, is set out on the regions page.

What it grows

The winery works with Riesling, Vidal, Cabernet Franc and Lemberger.

Each of those has a page here on how it behaves in Ontario: the heat it needs to ripen, the Brix it reaches at harvest, and which parts of the province actually plant it.

Visiting
