At first glance, a winery in the heart of Newfoundland appears about as plausible as a cod fishery in Ontario. But appearances can be deceiving.

Newfoundland's wind- and water-battered shores may seem harsh, but the island's unspoiled valleys and cliffs teem with wild berries, something Hilary Rodrigues was quick to take advantage of when he started Rodrigues Winery 14 years ago. His audacious little company, producing boutique wines from hand-picked cranberries and blueberries, as well more obscure fruits like cloudberries and partridgeberries, was soon garnering national attention and international awards.

Not content to rest on his laurels, Rodrigues has now turned his entrepreneurial eye on nutraceuticals and functional foods, a fast-growing branch of food chemistry.
