I talk to sommelier Lesley Provost about inexpensive and quality wine picks for the holidays. We focus on wines available in the LCBO in Ontario, but you can find them in many places. Lesley was a wine teacher at George Brown in Toronto and went to work for a winery in BC a few years back. She was recently lucky enough to avoid investing in a restaurant before COVID changed the business landscape in 2020. She is currently working on a book and is always interested in talking wine.
