The National Capital Region has plenty of good bottle shops. Small-batch Canadian wine is still hard to find on a regular shelf, though. Wine Club Canada ships across the country, including every corner of Ottawa and Gatineau. No membership fee, nothing to sign at a store counter.

Each month brings one featured Canadian winery instead of a random grab bag. You get the story behind the label and tasting notes written by a panel of Canadian wine writers. A bottle you would not stumble on at the LCBO.

Some readers pick this up as a Tuesday-night treat. Others use it to finally learn what they like, instead of grabbing whatever's at eye level. If you're just outside the core, our Ontario page and our Toronto page break down what's available closer to you.

Wine subscription Ottawa

We were not satisfied with the local wine selection at LCBO, so we created the best wine club in Ottawa to help you discover the finest wines Canada has to offer.

What's inside your box

Pick a red, white, or mixed subscription. Then choose how many bottles fit your month, from a two-bottle taste to a twelve-bottle haul for a bigger household.

Your box arrives with the winery's story and food pairing notes, enough detail to sound informed at your next dinner party. Even if you're winging it. There's no long-term contract. Pause it, skip a month, or cancel whenever your fridge is already full.

If Ottawa is home base, start with the mixed wine subscription and let the first box do the talking.

The wineries you'll meet

Most months lean on Niagara, home to producers like Bench 1775 Winery and Strewn Winery. Small enough that you won't see their names on a big-box shelf. Some months head west instead, featuring Okanagan producers such as Moon Curser Vineyards or Gold Hill Winery. Both known for grape varieties most Ontario drinkers have never tried, which is sort of the point.

A panel of Canadian wine writers, Tony Aspler among them, weighs in on what makes the final cut. Many of these wineries carry Ontario's VQA seal, a quality standard worth understanding before your next LCBO run.

Every bottle comes from a winery in that month's real rotation, not a stock photo of a vineyard. Our guide to Ontario's best wineries has more on where these labels come from.

Worth a try this month

You don't need to become a wine person to enjoy this. Pick a box, see what shows up, and decide from there. Discover a small Canadian winery you wouldn't have found on your own.
