Trying to gloss over winter by pretending it’s really just “indoor summer” is a little like putting lipstick on a pig. In other words, wearing your favourite resort gear and sipping Mai-Tais may seem like a clever way to escape the chill, but will eventually leave you with cold feet and an even colder heart.  Instead, we suggest you grab that toque, put on your woolliest socks and savour a bottle of heartwarming winter wine that comes with easy home delivery when you buy wine online.

There are lots of ways to embrace winter and have fun doing it. It really comes down to your energy level and, of course, your taste in wine. Some people love to crack open a bottle of bubbly to toast a day spent skiing, snowshoeing and skating, while others prefer to curl up beside a roaring fire with a glass of Cab Sauv. There really are no rights or wrongs when it comes to navigating winter and the important thing to remember is that the right wine can turn an average wintry day into a special occasion. Order wine online and it’s that much easier because you can curl up in your favourite blankie, browse a selection of whites, reds, rosé and sparkling wines, use your credit card and buy wine online with Ontario delivery right to your door.

Spending time outdoors in winter is truly exhilarating and has health-boosting benefits as well. Spending time in cold temperatures can increase your metabolism, use more energy and burn more fat. It is also a great way to banish those winter blues. Whether you choose to spend the day taking in the silent splendor of pristine winter hiking trails, hit the slopes with skis or a toboggan or recapture the youthful joy of a good old-fashioned snowball fight with the neighbours, playing in the snow is good for the body and the spirit. Order wine online now and be ready to embrace the joys of a snowy day with a sweet yet spicy, buttery yet toasty Oaked Chardonnay, or a bottle of Sparkling wine and be ready to join those neighbours in celebration of your snowy victory.

Those who prefer to chill by the fire with a great book or beloved guests can find a great red wine online by Ontario winemakers, with shipping available across Canada. Cabernet Sauvignon is a favourite winter wine with its full-bodied, deep colour, excellent tannin structure and moderate acidity. Buy wine online and enjoy this beloved red that is every bit as comforting as that warm heath on cold winter’s night. If a crisper, tangier red is more to your linking, open a bottle of Pinot Noir. This popular choice is light, easy-drinking and a wonderful complement to comfort foods such as stews and casseroles.

However you choose to while away those chilly months order wine online at Stocked Cellars. All of our wines are categorized for you, so you can easily find the perfect wine for any occasion. Whether you’re in the mood to discover something new, or plan to stock your cellar with tried-and-true favourites, you can buy wine online by Ontario leading winemakers, delivered right to your door.
