18 Years Celebrating Ontario Wines!

The Ontario Wine Society is a non-profit organization founded in 1991 that celebrates the exploration of Ontario wines, through informal, enjoyable and educational tastings and special events. Currently, we have three chapters, one serving the Toronto area, another serving the Niagara Peninsula area and the third serving the Oakville area.

We invite you to accompany us as a member or guest on our potable journey through Ontario's and the world's vineyards.

    • Features 8 Ontario wines, or wines from both Ontario and other wine regions of the world.
    • Is accompanied by plates of gourmet morsels, in Toronto, courtesy of the creative cooks at The Faculty Club and in Niagara, prepared by various local caterers and winery chefs.
    • Allows you to try something new, often wines not available at the LCBO.
