The father/daughter team of Bob and Caroline Granger has poured their passion for viticulture and their love of Prince Edward County in to what is undoubtedly one of the grand wineries in the region. With 60 acres of rolling vineyards, a pastoral setting and dramatic tasting room housed in a Loyalist barn,circa 1826, The Grange is the Loyalist version of a French wine estate, complete with rich textures, historical outbuildings and old-world charm.
The vineyards, comprising over 72,000 vinifera vines, are planted on Hillier clay gravel over calciferous fractured limestone where fields are naturally well drained and surprisingly fertile. Set on rolling fields, wetlands for waterfowl and original lanes where one can see deer and pheasant, the Grange of Prince Edward is truly breathtaking.
The Grange of Prince Edward Vineyards & Estate Winery is a family run business established in 2002 on the original Loyalist patented Trumpour farm. Vineyard planting began in 2001 and the vineyards now cover 60 acres of picturesque Prince Edward County farmland. Wine production began with the 2003 vintage which produced Prince Edward County's first Ontario Wine Award winning wine: our Trumpour's Mill 2003 Gamay Noir VQA. The Grange is proud of the history of its farm and is dedicated to producing delicious VQA wines of quality.
