You'll find lots of wines with great political sediment in tomorrow's LCBO Vintages Release plus your shopping list showing you which LCBO stores have those wines in stock now.

Live Video: Clinton versus Trump Wine Debate?

We’re going to have a live video taste-off between wines from Clinton Vineyards and Trump Winery.

******** Join us here on Facebook Live Video this Sunday at 6 pm EDT *********

You can watch even if you’re not a Facebook member.

Mark your calendar, grab a glass of wine (red, white or booze), and join the fun!
