TASTING EXPERIENCES
Find our top picks from each past LCBO release here. Look for new analyses to be posted a few days in advance of new products hitting the shelves across the province. We run every upcoming catalogue through our three-step process before they're available for sale so you know what to buy once they're available.
The LCBO’s Vintages catalogue for early May focuses on profiling their most popular sellers. Familiar names are included, but, as with pop music, just because something is recognizable doesn’t mean its going to be enjoyable.
In the March 20 Vintages catalogue, the LCBO put their reputation on the line with their March 20 buyer recommendations. How did their top choices stand up to scrutiny by our scoring algorithm?

Taste is subjective and no one needs an "expert" to help you determine what you like. The editors at Executive Spirits & Wines are brand agnostic and completely objective in our recommendations. Consider us your helpful guides on your tasting adventure who want to make your journey a little easier, with fewer missteps along the way. Ontario's Liquor Control Board (LCBO) offers over 1,500 domestic and imported spirit SKUs and another 1,700 in local and foreign wines. Add in the other 18,000 products going through the LCBO system yearly as consignment and private orders (mostly for restaurant and hotel cellars), and finding your next favourite beverage can be overwhelming. Our job is to make your search easier. We reference the world's best writers and publications and use a proprietary system to rank each new product according to price and value. Save time, save money and make your search easier and more convenient.
