    Ontario wine is diluted by the tears of a million Leaf fans.

    That's great. It's like how the water source near a distillery effects the taste of the whisky.

    Well, that, and all of the acid rain must really give those grapes an extra kick!

    All of the above is true.... A) We keep it for ourselves, B) Other regions are bigger names, and more popular, and C) I like having access to cheap, good quality local wines.

    On another note about the wine tours... there's also lots of good golfing up there. My dad goes every summer on a golf & wine tour.... unfortunately, once the wine starts, the golf suffers (if they even make it to the course!).

    Many of those wineries listed don't sell their product in stores. Many make limited runs that you can only purchase at the winery stores... of course, they allow you to sample first.

    Shhhh!!! quiet!!!!

    In fact, mod squad please delete this entire thread.

    We like our local wines. We like having them all to ourselves. When you cross any border leaving BC you must pass through the mind erasing beams that delete any knowledge of our wines.

    Now go away, or I shall taunt you a second time.
