Chateau des Charmes Wines

Chateau des Charmes Wines grows grapes at Niagara-on-the-Lake, in the St. David's Bench sub-appellation of Niagara Peninsula. It dates its founding to 1978.

Where it sits

Chateau des Charmes Wines is at Niagara-on-the-Lake, and its fruit falls inside St. David's Bench, one of the sub-appellations nested within Niagara Peninsula. A sub-appellation is the narrower claim: a wine may carry it or the wider appellation name, and the boundaries are set in regulation rather than by the winery. The regions page covers how those lines are drawn.

What it grows

The winery works with Chardonnay, Riesling, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Gamay Noir, Vidal, Aligoté, Gewürztraminer and Savagnin.

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: 72 acres.
