Carolyn Evans Hammon, in a recent Toronto Star 'Wine Find' column, featured the LCBO's best selling wines of the year. Four were 'reds' and two were 'whites'. My wine-drinking partner Patricia and I recently shared a bottle of the four top-selling red wines with some fellow residents at Delmanor Retirement Residence, on Yonge Street, in south Aurora.

The four top red wines in the last 12 months were:
1. 2021 J. Lohr Seven Oaks Cabernet Sauvignon, from California,
selling $23.5 millions worth, @ $24.95 a bottle.
2. 2021 Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon, from California,
selling $21.4 millions worth , @ $19.95 a bottle.
3. 2022 Bread & Butter Cabernet Sauvignon from California,
selling $20.1 millions worth, @ $19.95 a bottle.
4. 2022 Tom Gore Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon, from California,
selling $19 millions worth, @ $19.95 a bottle.
The four wines were taste-rated by Star columnist Hammond at various scores between 88, 89 and 90, with the Bread & Butter scoring highest.
All 10 of Delmanor's tasters thought the wines were equally "very good".
