Yes, the smaller rural stores are serviced by private delivery contractors. I'm sure they realise that the product could freeze under extreme circumstances, but they don't use temperature-controlled trucks either.

On the other hand, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Normal wine should be good to -15C, and your Symington ports will survive even colder temps. So I wouldn't worry about it - especially in SW Ontario.

Thanks - I figured (hoped) as much but feel better now. Thanks for the feedback.

I hope you ordered the 94 Warre's. It's well on its way to becoming a classic vintage for VP.


No I didn't Confused I picked up the '94 Fonseca at LCBO auction last year, and then opted for the '94 Dows and Taylors from the Symington offer.
