About the winery

Bruce Ewert and his Nova Scotian-born wife Pauline Scott moved their young family to Nova Scotia in 2004 and founded L’Acadie Vineyards in the Gaspereau Valley. Bruce identified that the region had great potential for crafting sparkling wine and in 2008, released the first traditional method sparkling wine in Nova Scotia. Since then, national and international accolades for his sparklings have proven his passion. L’Acadie Vineyards has been certified organic since inception. It is the first vineyard and winery in Nova Scotia to be certified organic and all wines are made with 100% Nova Scotia grapes.
