Planters Ridge Winery

Planters Ridge Winery grows grapes at Port Williams, in the Annapolis Valley appellation of Nova Scotia. It dates its founding to 2011.

Where it sits

Planters Ridge Winery is at Port Williams, and its fruit falls inside Annapolis Valley, one of the recognised growing areas of Nova Scotia. What a geographic claim means on a label differs by province — the Canadian wineries page sets out how.

What it grows

The winery works with Riesling, Chardonnay and L’Acadie.

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: 7.5-acre farm.
