I'll try to check this at least once a month, on any day I happen to get around to it...

Dec 10 2009 - While reading all the stuff that LCBO writes about how well they support Ontario wine (using your money to tell you about it), consider this fact: since the August 4th 2009 check of this channel, I have found only 60 bottles of Ontario wine - of one type only - available through LCBO Vintages Online. Do you really trust the people at the head of Vintages to support Ontario (also see the Classics Catalogue).
