How is this different than the recent Ontario Wine Awards tasting at the distillery? This is run by Vintages vs. the outside event organizer that does the Distillery tastings. For my money the Vintages events are far superior in organization. The venue is better for a wine tasting, and they won’t charge you extra if you would like a fresh glass part way through (as they did at the Ontario Wine Awards, recently at the Distillery, lol). The food is usually better too. There will be some overlap on the wine list but the focus here is premium Ontario wines. This should be a good opportunity to taste the better Ontario wines in a great venue, and better service. 400 tickets, about 300 still available.
