Queenston Mile Vineyard

Queenston Mile Vineyard grows grapes at Niagara-on-the-Lake, in the Niagara Peninsula appellation.

Where it sits

Queenston Mile Vineyard is at Niagara-on-the-Lake, 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 Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz, Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio.

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.
