The Ontario wine region is centered on the Niagara Peninsula, between lakes Ontario and Erie. Much experimentation is being conducted here on many wine types — reds, whites, rosés, sparklers, even fortified wines.
Ontario is a province in Canada located in the east-central part of the country, the largest by population and second to Quebec in total area. Ontario is bordered by the Canadian provinces of Manitoba to the west, Quebec to the east , and the American states of Michigan, New York, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania to the south. Most of Ontario's borders with the United States are natural, starting at the Lake of the Woods and continuing through the four Great Lakes: Superior, Huron (which includes Georgian Bay), Erie, and Ontario (for which the province is named), then along the Saint Lawrence River near Cornwall.
