Maelstrom to supply
wine for 2017 IPM
The executive committee of the
2017 International Plowing Match
(IPM) and Rural Expo is happy to
announce that Maelstrom Winery
will be the official supplier of wine
at the IPM and its related events.
Maelstrom Winery, and the
Landsborough Family, were the first
to plant grapevines in Huron County.
Battling the Huron County climate,
that is very diverse from the
traditional grape growing regions in
Ontario that are Niagara Region and
Prince Edward County, Maelstrom
has achieved VQA, a strict
designation to achieve.
The two wines selected for IPM
2017 include their white wine 2015
VQA Vidal, silver medal winner at
the 2017 Finger Lakes International
Wine Competition, and their red
2016 VQA Tempest. Maelstrom
Winery is located at 78925
Sanctuary Line, just off Hwy. 8
between Seaforth and Clinton. It's
open seven days a week 11 a.m. to 6
p.m. offering the opportunity to drop
by to taste and purchase.
"IPM 2017 is about showcasing
the people and community Huron
County is home to," says Jacquie
Bishop, Chair of IPM 2017. "We are
proud to have Maelstrom
represented at IPM 2017 because
their passion and innovation is a
representation of the many families
in Huron County."
The selections will be featured at
(funds going to assist with programs
at Central Huron Secondary
School), Families for Addiction
Recovery (www.farcanada.org) or to
Stratford/Perth Shelterlink (provid-
ing emergency or transitional
shelter) are appreciated and can be
made through McGlynn Family
Funeral Home at 519-527-1390.
Online condolences can be made
by visiting Tanner's memorial at
