The LCBO is unusually helpful for sugar-conscious wine buyers: it publishes sugar content in grams per litre for nearly everything it sells, data most wine shops don't offer at all. This guide uses that data directly, listing only wines at 5 g/L or below — genuinely dry, not just 'tastes dry'.
Two things worth knowing: reds are usually a safer low-sugar bet than off-the-shelf whites, where residual sugar hides behind acidity, and 'no sugar added' marketing labels say nothing about the sugar naturally left after fermentation. The grams-per-litre number on each wine's page is the fact that matters, and every bottle here has been filtered on it.

FAQ
What sugar level counts as low sugar here?
This page uses 5 grams per litre or less as the low-sugar cutoff because LCBO product data commonly reports sugar in g/L.
Does low sugar mean low alcohol?
No. Sugar and alcohol are separate measurements. Check the bottle details on each wine page for alcohol percentage.
