Wines made from Vidal blanc grapes of Nova Scotia
Discover the best wines made with Vidal blanc as a single variety or as a blend of Nova Scotia.
Aromatic, structured whites with firm acidity preserved at full ripeness, featuring aromas of citrus, pineapple, mango, apricot, honey and muscat notes. Absolute star of Canadian Icewines (Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia) where thick-skinned berries survive on the vine through frost, yielding rich liquoreux with exotic fruit and honey aromas. Also made as dry and semi-sweet whites in the northeastern United States. French hybrid created in 1930 by Jean-Louis Vidal (Ugni Blanc × Rayon d'Or).
Canada's oldest wine region (vines since 1611), Atlantic peninsula with cool maritime climate tempered by Bay of Fundy tides. Tidal Bay signature flagship white appellation: lively and briny with signature notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers, fresh herbs and saline mineral hint, taut palate — the local expression, perfect on seafood. Acadie Blanc, fresh Seyval, chiseled Chardonnay. Excellent traditional method sparkling.
