Niagara College Teaching Winery

Profile

Niagara College Teaching Winery is located in Niagara-on-the-Lake, part of the Niagara Peninsula wine region, which spans a 30 mile plain on the N43° latitude where the growing season sunshine is comparable to the Languedoc-Rousillon in France, south of both Burgundy and Bordeaux, or Tuscany, Italy. Nestled along Ontario's Niagara escarpment, a United Nations world biosphere preserve, the Niagara Peninsula appellation, St. David's Bench sub-appellation, provides the perfect 'terroir '; a combination of soil, climate and topography, affecting the flavour and characteristics of the award winning VQA wines produced by our renowned winemaker Terence Van Rooyen, while teaching his craft to aspiring students.
