Wine Growers Nova Scotia

The Winery Association of Nova Scotia was formed in 2002 and works to build awareness of the Wines of Nova Scotia brand, serve as a voice for wineries, and work closely with all government levels to grow the industry and expand market opportunities for the sale of Nova Scotia wine. In 2020, the association rebranded to Wine Growers Nova Scotia (WGNS) to align with Wine Growers Canada and other wine regions across the country.

WGNS is committed to building excellence throughout every aspect of the industry, forging partnerships, attracting potential investors and catapulting Nova Scotia wine onto the world stage. The Wines of Nova Scotia logo can be found on bottles of Nova Scotia wines made from 100% Nova Scotia grown grapes and fruit, and that meet the Nova Scotia Wine Standards.

Add @grandpre 's Riesling to your Nova Scotia Wine Add @grandpre 's Riesling to your Nova Scotia Wine Wish List🥂

There are few varieties that reflect the terroir better than Riesling. This medium-sweet white wine exhibits intense pear and citrus fruit aromas such as Bergamot Orange and Lime. Riesling's naturally high acidity and pronounced fruit flavours also lend this great wine potential to age gracefully.

Riesling is a versatile wine and can be paired with white fish or pork and a wide selection of different cheeses. Because of its pronounced sugar-acid balance, it can also stand up to spicy Asian dishes.

Bruce started his career at Peller Estates in British Columbia before settling in Nova Scotia. 

L'Acadie Vineyards is certified organic, regenerative and vegan. Bruce's goal is to create wines with physiological ripeness every year – brown lignified seeds, acidity and ripe fruit flavours.

To help people enjoy their wines more, Bruce recommends getting to know the story behind the wines you are consuming, the soil people and practices!

The location of the province's first vineyard was The location of the province's first vineyard was Bear River. The location had been chosen for its benign microclimate, which was both warmed and cooled by the twice-a-day flushing of the Bay of Fundy tides into and out of the Annapolis Basin and upstream to Bear River.
