Buying Wines:
All wines are not available in all stores; you can check your local online liquor store website for a particular wine. Usually, larger stores carry
more wine brands than smaller stores.
In Canada, each province has its own liquor board, usually all differently named; Examples:
Nova Scotia, Nova Scotia Liquor Commission, NSLC, website, mynslc.com
Ontario, Ontario Liquor Control Board, LCBO, website, LCBO.com
British Columbia, British Columbia Liquor Distribution, website BC Liquor Stores.com
Most Canadian provinces have some privately owned liquor agency stores, acting on behalf of the liquor board for its province; licensed to sell liquor to the public. Usually these
are in rural and remote areas of a province, except for the province of Alberta which has mostly privately owned agency liquor stores.
In USA, many states have agency liquor stores, and many shopping stores, large and small, also sell liquor products. In the United States, consumers can buy liquor
online and have it shipped to them. Websites like Wine.com, have large wine inventories.
In Canada, online wine purchasing is only available with Province to Province
Liquor websites, and, they only ship or have pickup within their own province. The exception to this is Canadian Made Wines, which can be purchased online and shipped
anywhere in Canada; at this website - MyWineCanada.com
