The producer
Who are they?
Founded in 1996 in Saint-Armand, Domaine du Ridge is one of the vineyards that helped develop Quebec wine in the Eastern Townships. The estate works with grape varieties suited to our climate, including Seyval blanc, Seyval noir, Vidal, Maréchal Foch and Lucie Kuhlmann. On a large property that includes fields, woodlands and more than 40 acres of vines, the team produces a very diverse range of still, sparkling and other cuvées. Today, the next generation of the family is firmly in place and continues to develop the estate with the same desire to showcase Quebec wines.
