LCBO Food & Drink Holiday 2022

ADVERTISING FEATURE

When you give the gift of Ontario VQA wine, you know you’re giving a quality wine that’s crafted right here at home. Know someone who enjoys lush, fruity reds? Surprise them with a bottle or two of Baco Noir or Cabernet Franc that so many wine fans appreciate for their ruby colour and floral and berry notes. For the white wine lover, a Sauvignon Blanc — featuring a bright acidity and fresh green flavours — is an ideal gift. Exceptional, local and delicious, premium Ontario VQA wines are a great and easy way to round off your holiday gift list. GIVE THE GIFT LOCAL
