About the winery

Ideally located on Lake Magog, between Magog and Sherbrooke, Le Cep d’Argent has become one of the largest producers on the Québec wine scene. Brothers François and Jean-Paul Scieur, originally from Champagne, were the first to produce a sparkling wine in Québec: a méthode champenoise made from 100 percent seyval. They produced their first icewine, from vidal, in 2009.
