Cellared in Canada - Practice

Practice

Under the "Cellared in Canada" label, Canadian wine producers can import pre-fermented grape must from grapes grown in other countries to produce wines under their own wine label. These wines are then designated as being made or "cellared" in Canada, even though they may contain no Canadian-grown grapes. The advantage to the producer is potentially lower production costs for imported grapes compared with locally grown Canadian grapes. Large wine-producing estates such as Peller Estates, Mission Hill Winery and Jackson-Triggs (owned by Constellation Brands) have made widespread use of this designation.

Famous quotes containing the word practice:

    God forbid that any book should be banned. The practice is as indefensible as infanticide.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    Predatory capitalism created a complex industrial system and an advanced technology; it permitted a considerable extension of democratic practice and fostered certain liberal values, but within limits that are now being pressed and must be overcome. It is not a fit system for the mid- twentieth century.
    Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)

    By practice and conviction formed,
    With ancient stubbornness ingrained,
    Although her body clung and swarmed,
    My own identity remained.
    Yvor Winters (1900–1968)
