Canada’s top wine writers and sommeliers gathered in our national’s capital yesterday to taste through an impressive line-up of wines.
Twitter, Facebook and Instagram were on fire as they posted their reviews live and shared on social media.
You can get the complete list of wines here, along with their reviews and the closest liquor stores that have these wines in stock now.
This list is also accessible on the wine mobile apps.
Stay tuned: we’re already planning our next big tasting!
