The Grange of Prince Edward Winery's relaunched Almanac Series represents a thoughtful approach to regional winemaking. This rebranded collection captures the essence of Ontario's variable growing conditions through carefully curated blends that change annually based on vintage quality.
The Almanac Series stands out for its transparent approach — each bottle's back label details specific growing conditions like rainfall and lunar cycles, creating an educational dimension that connects consumers directly to the land. Winemaker Jonas Newman's selective blending strategy combines estate-grown fruit with grapes from trusted partner vineyards, which allows flexibility to highlight each season's strongest varietals.
The 2024 releases of the Grange of Prince Edward Winery's Almanac Series include a bright Riesling-Chardonnay white and an approachable Cabernet Franc-Merlot-Gamay red.
