#3 - Prince Edward County with Norman Hardie - Norman Hardie - Calcaire

​How did you go from sommelier to winemaker? ​What makes Canada’s Prince Edward County both special and challenging for wine? ​I make wine because… We delve into these questions and more in our first winemaker interview with renowned Canadian winemaker, Norman Hardie of Norman Hardie Winery. Recorded on location at Norman Hardie Winery in Prince Edward County, Ontario, we discuss a range of topics around Norman Hardie’s journey into winemaking, his 3 rules for winemaking, and why he makes wine. In this episode we feature Norman Hardie’s Calcaire, a white wine blend with a deliciously racy minerality and named after the limestone soils featured in his vineyards.
