🍇 What are the stories behind family-owned Canadian wineries❓ https://lnkd.in/gVW4X4Bu 🌱 There are four major regions in Canada that produce wines made from grapes: BC, Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia. 🍷 Ontario makes about 63% of the wine, BC 33% and 2% for each of Quebec and NS, with more than 700 wineries from coast to coast and 1,800 grape growers. 💰 Every bottle of 100% Canadian wine contributes $90 to the national economy versus just $16 for an imported bottle. 🏞️ Pride of place literally grounds them all. Often the land on which their vineyards are planted is owned by the family, in some cases for several generations. 🌿 I should also add that they all acknowledge that they farm on the traditional territories of our Indigenous nations. 🌍 Being deeply connected to the soil that makes your wine, especially when your name is on the bottle, is a very different mindset from wines conceived in a focus group and made by blending grapes that may be hundreds or thousands of kilometres apart without that connection. 🌳 Family-owned wineries are often driven more by legacy than by the bottom line. 🏆 Of course, they need to be profitable to stay in business, but they also want to create something they can hand down to future generations. 📦 These wineries will ship these wines and others they produce across the country right to your doorstep, so there’s never been a better time or an easier way to support our homegrown farmers from coast to coast on July 1st and throughout the summer! 🍁 Do you have a favourite Canadian wine❓ Let me know in the comments 👇 Cheers🥂, Natalie 🍷 PS Get my free "Ultimate Guide to Wine & Food Pairing" at: https://lnkd.in/ghiPfx_F ✉️ Or just DM me and ask for the guide!

🍇🌍 (Wine News) The world of wine is on the move: France - an oasis in the middle of the drought! 🍷📈 Last year was a challenging one for the global wine industry, as reported by the German newspapers WELT and Tagesspiegel. With a 10% drop in wine production, 2023 was the worst harvest since 1961, with Italy and Australia particularly hard hit, with production falling by 23% and 26% respectively. In the midst of this global decline, however, there is a remarkable light at the end of the tunnel. France, with its tradition and innovation in viticulture, bucked the trend and recorded a remarkable 4% increase in wine production. This made France the world's largest wine producer last year. 💡🌱 #wineindustry #climatechange #sustainability #innovation #viticulture
