Calamus Estate Winery

Calamus Estate Winery grows grapes at Jordan, in the Niagara Peninsula appellation. It dates its founding to 1999.

Where it sits

Calamus Estate Winery is at Jordan, 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 Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Gris, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.

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.

Vineyard area: 32 acres of planted vineyards.
