  • August, 2014 © Mark Robert Holmes, 2014
    TESTING THE IMPLICATIONS OF AN INTEGRATED RURAL TOURISM FRAMEWORK FOR THE NIAGARA WINE REGION MARK ROBERT HOLMES A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO AUGUST, 2014 © MARK ROBERT HOLMES, 2014 Abstract Tourism, in general, can contribute to and integrate with rural economies for rural development through industry associations and community participation (Saxena et al., 2007), as well as act as a storehouse for “natural and historical heritage” (Lane, 1994, p. 103). As realization that tourism can benefit local areas increases, so too has the discussion around tourism as a tool for rural areas. In 2007, building on the concept of Integrated Rural Development (IRD), Saxena et al. first discussed the concept of Integrated Rural Tourism (IRT). IRT was suggested as an approach to understanding the complexities of rural tourism through an examination of seven components (networking, scale, endogeneity, sustainability, embeddedness, complementarity, and empowerment), and as a means for exploring the ability of tourism to produce benefits for the rural area. In the past, IRT has been used to examine how tourism has aided rural development in Europe and the US; however, its use in Canada, and more specifically the Niagara Peninsula, has yet to be realized. Using the Niagara Peninsula Appellation (NPA), the largest wine region in Ontario and Canada, as the case study, this project involved interviewing 17 wineries and five industry associations, in an attempt to answer two specific questions: (1) how does the wine industry and wine tourism aid in the development of Niagara’s rural area using the IRT concept, and (2) how can IRT aid in rural development through direct, experiential, conservation, development, and synergistic benefits.

  • Celebrating Extreme Wines
    Celebrating Extreme Wines: 24 Winter 2012-3 Niagara-on-the-Lake’s Icewine Festival By Gloria Hildebrandt Photos by Mike Davis Every winter Niagara-on-the-Lake clears its main street to let tents, bar tables and ice sculptures take over for an icewine festival. Other towns have their own events as part of a Region-wide celebration of Canada’s most famous wine export to the world. Niagara-on-the-Lake has around 30 local wineries that produce icewine and the town’s Queen St. is the place to be to savour their astonishing variety. f your first experience of icewine was a sweet, thick taste that you haven’t been eager to repeat, you’re in Ifor a surprise. Icewine is no longer cloyingly super syrupy. Instead, icewines taste fresh, clear, bright and intensely fruity in particular flavours such as peach, cherry, strawberry or apple, plus complex blends including spice and even chocolate. Yet they are much more like fresh fruit than sugar. Icewine is wine made from grapes that have been allowed to freeze naturally on the vine. When harvested, the grapes are pressed while frozen, which leaves behind most of the water as ice, and results in very sweet, concentrated juice. Icewine production is considered to have begun commercially in Ontario by Inniskillin in 1984. In 1991 they won a prestigious international award for their 1989 Vidal Icewine. Inniskillin icewine is now available in 73 countries ▲ “We like wine. We like to do this on the weekends,” say from left, Andrew Sitko, Jamie King, around the world.

  • Squeezing the Greatest Potential out of Niagara's Wine Industry
    Squeezing the greatest potential out of Niagara's wine industry October 16, 2009 For years, Niagara's vineyards have been something of a grape smorgasbord. Virtually everything can be found in the ground, from hot-loving grape varieties such as Shiraz to cool-hardy grapes such as Vidal, which are a hybrid, or cross, between a European variety and a native Canadian one. This might change. As part of its plan to strengthen the wine industry, the Ontario government asked wineries and grape growers this week to come up with a grape varietal plan for the province by 2014. The plan would chart a course for what grape varieties to put in the ground and how much. So what to plant? Take a look around the wine regions of the world and it's not hard to discover where the great grape strengths lie: California for its bold red grape variety Cabernet Sauvignon, New Zealand for its fragrant white Sauvignon Blanc and Argentina for its rich red Malbec. What should Niagara's grape trump card be? Based on Niagara's cold winters, short grape growing season and consumer taste, most experts agree the region should focus primarily on three varieties: Riesling -- an aromatic white grape variety with historic roots in Germany. Chardonnay -- a common white variety that's grown around the world, but particularly shines in cooler climates, such as Burgundy, France. Pinot Noir -- the hard-to-grow grape variety associated with Burgundy and now Oregon. Many wineries are already focusing on these Riesling and Chardonnay varieties, but viticulture expert Andrew Reynolds said even more could be planted in the region.
