Wines Worth Discovering
Many years ago, a massive inland sea, larger than the great lakes, covered most of Ontario. Over time, the sea receded and left behind a legacy of corals and crustaceans, rich limestone soils, the Niagara Escarpment and Lake Ontario. Ancient Coast Wines are named after the Niagara Escarpment, which was once the coast of this ancient sea. While this sea is long forgotten, it created the natural conditions that make the Niagara Peninsula a great wine growing region. The unique soil composition along with the Niagara Escarpment’s rare microclimate has provided Ontario grape growers with the perfect place for growing vines.
Ancient Coast was created in May 2000 as an embodiment and celebration of the geological history of the Niagara Escarpment. Its VQA wines are made from grapes grown exclusively in the rich fertile soils of the Niagara Peninsula. In its short existence, it has come to represent quality wines at an affordable price.
