LCBO value wine guide
Best LCBO wines under $25
The under-$25 range has a wide LCBO selection. This page highlights the strongest current options across styles while keeping the price ceiling clear.
Last updated Jul 15, 2026 — refreshed daily from LCBO inventory data.
Red Blend, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay · Ontario, South Australia, Veneto
The $20–25 band is arguably the best value tier at the LCBO: it's above the mass-market shelf where production costs squeeze quality, but below the point where you start paying for prestige. This is where solid Chianti Classico, cru Beaujolais, mid-tier Rioja, and Ontario's better VQA reds live.
This guide ranks everything currently in LCBO stock at $25 or less, refreshed daily. If you're stepping up from the under-$20 shelf, the biggest quality jumps per dollar in this range tend to come from regions with unfashionable names rather than famous ones — the page below sorts them by what the data says is actually good.

FAQ
Why build an under-$25 page if there is an under-$20 page?
The $20 to $25 range adds many stronger bottles without moving into premium pricing, so it deserves its own value view.
