" COMPANY HISTORY The Mondor vineyard borrowed the name of the company which was at the time the company where it was cultivated the most high quality tobacco, which made its fame in the past. These fertile lands, steeped in the region's history, are now reborn thanks to the new cultures that develop there. Viticulture is a good example. Its silica-rich soil has the property of reflecting light and heat, like an infinity of small mirrors. It also contains a significant proportion of sediment left by the Champlain Sea. Maurice Mondor has proven himself in tobacco cultivation for 35 years. (Abolition of tobacco cultivation in Quebec in 2003). He therefore decided, in the company of his son and partner Gaétan Mondor, to take up a new challenge by building their own vineyard. »SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT The company is moreover very recent and the first vintages were produced in 2009 thanks to the 2775 vines planted in 2007. The project is going well and the remarkable results pushed it to proceed, in 2008, the planting of 3,100 other vines and 2,100 in 2010. The technical development of the vineyard and its facilities are the result of careful know-how and inventiveness. The modification of a building into a cellar, the construction of mechanical equipment designed for the maintenance and production of winegrowing in Quebec are just a few examples. » MISSION D’ENTREPRISE La haute qualité de nos vins et la constance seront des outils de mise en marché importants, car elles constituent pour les consommateurs nationaux et étrangers une assurance de méthodes de production réglementées, de qualité et l’intégrité de nos étiquettes. La situation géographique et la proximité de l’autoroute 40, confèrent au vignoble une bonne localisation et accessibilité pour l’agrotourisme. D’excellents produits, la propreté, l’ambiance et de belles installations seront notre mission pour le vignoble, car les gens sont sensibles à ces détails. Les préoccupations pour l'environnement sur le plan des changements climatiques et la disponibilité en eau prennent de l'importance. C'est pourquoi notre industrie vinicole examine de près des facteurs de « durabilité » afin d'assurer que ses produits sont fabriqués de façon à minimiser les conséquences pour l'environnement.
