Okay, so it's slightly outside of Toronto, but it's only 45 minutes by car. This winery has the best chardonnay in Ontario, and at $15.95, it doesn't really get any cheaper than that. The tasting room atmosphere is jovial and down-home (Pamela is the best!), and the tastings are free. Make sure to check out the Baco and Mountain Road Red - you'll be surprised how good these are!

It's called Barbabelle and its inexpensive ($12.95), organic, and delicious. You have to order online (or by phone), but they deliver which I also like. I highly recommend it.

St Hallets - Cabernet Sauvingon - 2004 an exceptional bold Cab with long finish for only $ 19.95 - rating would be around 89/90

they have the penfolds shiraz in the keg size glass!
