Meet the Winemaker
Jürg Stutz became the winemaker at Domaine de Grand Pré in 1999 after studying Oenology in Switzerland. The wines he creates not only represent what makes Nova Scotia unique but also reflects who he is as a person. Jürg has used the mantra “let the work speak for itself” as a guiding principle to develop his signature style. His wines are clean, precise, and unpretentious—characteristics that perfectly capture Nova Scotia’s unique terroir and define Domaine de Grand Pré. Said more simply: Jürg lets the grapes speak for themselves so that the wines can tell their story.
