Maison Viticole Lafont

Maison Viticole Lafont grows grapes at Saint-Paul-d'Abbotsford, Quebec. It dates its founding to 2016.

Where it sits

Maison Viticole Lafont is at Saint-Paul-d'Abbotsford 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. We have no record that this winery holds either. How appellation systems differ across the country is covered on the Canadian wineries page.

What it grows

The winery works with Vidal, Cayuga, Frontenac, St-Pépin, Petite Perle, Noiret and Frontenac Noir.

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: huit hectares.
