La Halte des Pèlerins
La Halte des Pèlerins grows grapes at Sherbrooke, in the IGP-Vin du Québec appellation of Quebec. It dates its founding to 2008.
Where it sits
La Halte des Pèlerins is at Sherbrooke in Quebec. Quebec has no geographic appellations in the way Ontario and British Columbia do: the province recognises just two reserved wine appellations, Vin du Québec and Vin de glace du Québec, and both are certifications a producer opts into rather than places on a map. This winery holds IGP-Vin du Québec. How appellation systems differ across the country is covered on the Canadian wineries page.
What it grows
The winery works with Marquette, Frontenac, Sabrevois, Sainte-Croix, Frontenac Blanc, Frontenac Gris, Cliche, Prairie Star, Delisle and Swenson White.
Where a grape has a page here, it covers how that variety behaves in Canadian conditions: the heat it needs to ripen, the Brix it reaches, and where it is planted.
Vineyard area: the vineyard occupies 28% of a 45 acre estate; planting density about 4,000 vine.
Visiting
Two indoor tasting rooms exist, but CURRENTLY CLOSED — the site states the shop is closed for the 2026 season for health reasons
Also in Quebec: Le Bourg des Cèdres, Les Ouches. The full list is on the Quebec page.
