The Grape Factory Winery and Vineyard

The Grape Factory Winery and Vineyard grows grapes at Trail, in the Kootenays appellation of British Columbia.

Where it sits

The Grape Factory Winery and Vineyard is at Trail, and its fruit falls inside Kootenays, one of the recognised growing areas of British Columbia. 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 Cabernet Franc, Marquette and Pinot 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.
