Short distances from Niagara Falls, Ontario are two of Canada’s most popular wine-country destinations. Both are located in the Niagara Region and are set between the picturesque Great Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment. Small historic towns welcome visitors with a keen and adventurous pallet for new and fresh Canadian wines and of course the region’s specialty; Icewine.
The first destination is Niagara Escarpment & Twenty Valley. Nestled between the escarpment and Lake Ontario in fossil-rich limestone soils are over 40 individual wineries. Aside from many sophisticated wineries, the Twenty Valley offers premier golf courses, museums, art galleries and heritage sites.
