2022 Vintage Report
Great quality and small crops were the hallmarks of the 2022 vintage in Ontario. Excellent weather in 2022 resulted in high quality across the province but the crop size was limited in both Niagara and Prince Edward County. Lake Erie North Shored was blessed with both quality and more normal yields.
