The wine region of Quebec
Quebec (or Québec in French) is the largest province in Canada, spanning nearly 20 degrees of latitude between 44°N and 62°N. While its Severe continental Climate makes viticulture here extremely challenging, there is indeed a flourishing wine industry. Viticulture is largely confined to the very South of the province aLong the international border with the USA. Cold-hardy HybridGrape varieties such as Marechal Foch, Seyval Blanc and Vidal dominate the Vineyards in the region.
The word of the wine: Aging on lees
Maturing on the lees enhances the stability, aromatic complexity and texture of white wines, which gain in body and volume. This phenomenon is induced by autolysis, the process of self-degradation of the lees.
