Here are a few addresses where you can raise a glass to the region's beauty.
VIGNOBLE SAINT-GABRIEL | SAINT-GABRIEL-DE-BRANDON
Located on a rocky hillside near Lac Maskinongé, this Ecocert Canada-certified organic vineyard grows over 35,000 vines. Enjoy a guided tour of their unique wine cellar, built from an old road viaduct, and discover their antique tractor museum. The site also offers walking trails and a boutique selling lavender products. Their terrace is also magnificent for relaxing while sipping a drink, a great activity on a summer's day.
VIGNOBLE SAINT-THOMAS | SAINT-THOMAS
Established on former tobacco land, this vineyard offers a range of unique wines made from hybrid grape varieties. Their warm reception room can accommodate up to 50 people, ideal for private events. A picnic area is also available to enjoy the rural setting. Their orange wine is a must if you want to get off the beaten track. A tasting experience is also offered with a fine selection of the vineyard's wines and some of the best local produce from our beautiful region.
VINEYARD TÊTES AU VENT | SAINTE-MARIE-SALOMÉ
Here, vines are grown differently. This creative vineyard specializes in natural wines, produced in small quantities, without chemicals, and always in harmony with nature. Each vintage becomes an opportunity to let the grapes express themselves freely, creating unique cuvées full of personality. Here, a good wine is more than a taste: it's an encounter, a moment, a context. It's what makes each sip as magical as it is memorable.
Come and discover their world in a relaxed, no-nonsense atmosphere. Sit on the terrace or by the vines, glass in hand, accompanied by a platter of cheeses and charcuterie from local artisans. A true moment of pleasure...quite simply.
VIGNOBLE MONDOR | LANORAIE
Created in 2004, this vineyard is the fruit of three generations of a family with a passion for agriculture. Set in an enchanting setting with a breathtaking view of our 40,000 vines, the place invites you to relax and discover. In summer, you can stop by our boutique for a wine tasting, explore the vineyards at your own pace or enjoy our picnic area. Their soil, rich in silica and marine sediments left by the Champlain Sea, acts as a natural mirror that captures light and heat, providing ideal conditions for growing vines.
Come and sit on their terrace to taste their wines: a dry, fruity red made from Frontenac, Marquette and Ste-Croix grapes, a dry, brilliant white made from Frontenac Gris, or an ice wine, harvested in the middle of winter to extract a nectar with intense peach aromas. Tastings are free, and tours are open during the season. And if you're looking for a unique venue for your next event, the site is also available for rental.
VIGNOBLE DU VENT MAUDIT | BERTHIERVILLE
Vignoble Vent maudit is far from a traditional vineyard. Here, you don't come to taste wines, but rather to pick delicious table grapes - including several seedless varieties - or to leave with your own vine plants! With nearly 10,000 vines in production, we offer you the perfect opportunity to discover vine growing in a whole new way, whether you pick your own or buy cuttings for your garden.
The vineyards of Lanaudière invite you to slow down, taste and savor. Every visit is an opportunity to meet passionate artisans, taste authentic products and fall under the spell of a little-known corner of the country. So, this summer, take the time to raise a glass to the local bounty... and who knows, maybe you'll leave with a bottle (or two) of your new favorite finds.
