Sutton, on the Wine Route
Three magnificent wineries that are an integral part of the famous Wine Route that criss-crosses Brome-Missisquoi, are in the Sutton area.

The natural beauty and its unique architecture distinguishes the Château Ste-Agnes Winery from the 21 wineries on the Wine Route for its breathtaking decor. What distinguishes the Domaine Girourard Winery is the innovative production method using a chai built on two levels allowing for gravity and not pumping for many wine-making procedures.
