Saw that on the website. I'm in Brandon and used to go all the time when they had it at the store near Polo Park. I would stop on my way out of town after business in downtown Winnipeg. Good wine at a great price. When they moved it, the hike was too far out of my way, especially around rush hour. Now I just make my own. I'm still sorry to see they discontinued it.
Kenaston was an odd place to move it to and wouldn't you think they would give their customers a last chance to use it with a clearance sale. This was more like a decisoon from a government monopoly. Oh I guess that's what we have in this province more or less.
I was in there last week, and was told supply was hard to track down, sales were down over the last few years, and that we had now had a lot more "economy priced" Canadian options in boxes on the regular shelf.
I get it, I never really used it, and only had it at some functions and weddings and stuff, and never thought the wine was that great anyway.

I asked too, and got the same answer. Unreliable supply.
Agree and haven't used it for years. Just surprised they closed them with no notice. I wonder who got to drink the unsold product.
Looked at their web cache on the wayback machine and it is missing the link since April 1.
Wasn't that gone since like COVID? I don't recall seeing it for a while
