My closest LCBO is the one at Yonge and Bloor, however that store is renown for only carrying…read morepopulist and mostly cheaper labels. So if you are in the mood to try something really new or different chances are that you will leave disappointing. Mind you though, I do not drink much beer Hence I come here when I want try something new. It is convenient, a little on the posh side and much larger. Sure, it is not humongous like Summerhill but they do have enough of a selection whether it be the regular or vintage to walk out a happy customer. Also a decent Germany section is you are a fan of them. Most LCBO's carry very little in German wines. Why no Rhine love? Not to mention to it underground from Yonge and Bloor is the weather is not co-operating. Also, they do stay open later than usual, 9:00pm on the Friday & Saturdays and at 8:00pm on the weekedays. About the only bad thing is they close at 5:00pm on Sundays, but as far as I know that is the time all LCBO's close.

This is an update to the change of location within the building for this location. Oh boy what a…read morechange, the new space is much bigger and brighter which lends to a much more inviting place. Add in a much larger variety to boot we are looking at a very decent outlet for LCBO. This is by no means a flagship location so the variety for vintage section is limited but the main stream brands have a decent selection. The entry door is now at main street level and one can just pop in and be on the way without ever entering the core building. The checkout are somewhat limited but I haven't been here at peak times to notice a more than normal delay at checkout. Kudos for making a change that's for the better.

My pleasant experience at Vintage Vines grew over the course of three events. First the appetizer…read morewas a virtual info session. Next the main course was the shop visit for a sampler & placing our wine order. Finally the dessert culminated when our icewine was ready! While the shop's Lakeshore location is tight from the outside, there's plenty of wine passion inside. Certainly don't sleep on this LCBO alternative. I came this weekend to pickup our holiday icewine batch, which we ordered 8 weeks earlier on the prior visit. You could say we were tempted by the golden nectar! In mythology Bacchus might be credited with viticulture & wine creation, but during the winter freeze is when this specialty wine comes to life. Icewine is pressed from frozen grapes resulting in small drips of this concentrated & uniquely sweet nectar with about 13% alcohol & 200g/L sugar content. Upon opening a bottle, we're quite ecstatic about how our Riesling icewine turned out. True to form, bold notes of honey, peach & sweet citrus were evident within each full body sip. If typical late harvest is 7/10, this is 10/10 on the dessert wine scale. While this isn't your award-winning Niagara icewine, the charming taste of this Winexpert Après batch pleasantly surprised us at its price point. Celina was knowledgeable & friendly, flexibly offering us a half batch as well as providing labels & bottles for our order. The deal was too sweet to pass up for 15 icewine bottles. DIY bottling option is available. Having previously tried our hand at bottling, we opted for the convenience of pickup. Glad the end-product received was literally a vintage vine. Thanks for giving us a Riesling to review!

I Attended the Yelp elite event here and we got to understand how wine was made in store. The owner…read morewas really friendly and knowledgeable. She also let us sample a red wine. All their wine was easy to drink and if you are ever planning an event they have custom wine bottles great for weddings, birthdays, etc. They are able to work with you to customize the label at a super affordable price of $10 and under per bottle depending on what wine you choose.
