I organized a big party at Jump Cafe downtown several months ago. One of my guests, Scott, chose a fantastic Italian Amarone that I enjoyed so much, I tried to buy it at the LCBO the following weekend.

A quick call to the fabulous sommelier informed me that the wine was a 2000 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico ‘Fracastoro’. Unfortunately, I learned that not all wines in Ontario are available through the LCBO.

Stem Wine Group was the importer of the wine and it was directly available through them. They responded quickly to my email and provided delivery right to my door. Not only do they carry the Amarone, but they have a full family of wines.
