Niagara Escarpment Region

The word Niagara generates an image of rushing waters and natural beauty carved out of a land thousands of years ago. This limestone ridge, along with Lake Ontario to the north, the Niagara River to the west, and the sloping well-drained soils of the escarpment to the south, work together to produce a new fast-growing New York State viticultural area. The escarpment’s unique microclimate holds the air warmed by the lake’s waters and protects the land in the immediate area from drastic temperature changes, perfect for grape growing. Be sure to try one of the area’s Native and French-American varietals along with European varietals.
