Where it sits

Redtail Vineyards is at Hillier, Prince Edward County (tasting room at 19538 Loyalist Parkway, Consecon, ON K0K 1T0), inside Prince Edward County — one of the three appellations of origin recognised under Ontario's VQA system.

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.
