Wine Regions | |
| It can be argued that the ice age of 2,000,000 years ago shaped the land and soil. In tandem with the moderating effects of the Atlantic Ocean it has created vineyards unlike any others in the world. Situated on one of the cooler climate limits for vines, Nova Scotia has had a long and rich tradition for growing grapes and for wine dating back to the 1600s. It's actually quite possible this was one of the first areas to cultivate grapes in North America. |
