5 AMAZING VALUE WINES YOU SHOULD TRY THIS WEEK!
Hey, hey, hey fellow wine lovers! It’s a new year, and I’m back with my rundown of my top picks from the most recent LCBO Vintages selection, which I just love to do every two weeks when there is a new lineup released. This edition includes wines that were released on January 9, 2021. Thank goodness for this new release - the shelves were looking very bare after the pilfering that occurred by enthusiastic customers over the holiday season!
This first release of 2021 has a strong focus on value wines, or as the LCBO likes to call them, “Smart Buys”. As a result, there are a lot of great wines available for $25 or less. There is also a feature on organic wines.
I think this current selection includes some really great options for those who want to try new things without breaking the bank, as well as some great “everyday” wines. By everyday wines, I mean wines that are easy drinking and not very expensive, which makes them perfect for a casual sip with your evening meal - no special occasions required.
In total, 62 wines have been released for the enjoyment of wine lovers across Ontario. If you’re thinking that’s a lot of wine to shift through and to pick from, I understand where you are coming from. But hey, that’s why I am here with my handy-dandy list of top picks, ready to make your life, and your meals, better! :)
Check out a few of the wines that I think are worth your time and money, below. You’ll notice that I too have focused on value wines this time. Because it is possible to drink really great wine without breaking the bank!
And listen, I don’t get paid to recommend any of these wines. I only do so only because I personally find them compelling so you can count on the fact that I truly think they are worth your time. Now let’s get to it!
NOTE - If you’re shopping at the LCBO, remember that product availability will vary from location to location, and not all products last very long. Click the links below to check availability at your preferred store, or online.
