Choosing the right bottle of wine can sometimes be a daunting task, especially if you don't know a ton about wine, vintages, vineyards, or taste profiles!

But here's the secret: the best wine is the type of wine that fits your unique personality. And the journey to finding your favourites can actually be super fun. 

With hundreds of diverse options, Wines of Ontario has something perfect for you.

Whether you’re planning a summer picnic, a BBQ, or a dinner party, VQA Matchmaker by Wines of Ontario can help you find your ideal match. Just answer a few fun questions and you'll be paired with an Ontario VQA wine that's right for you!

To give you a little taste, we're running through some personality types and matching them with a wine that suits them best. Find yours below.

The entertainer

You're vivacious, you love being the centre of attention, and you know how to make an entrance. A little bit like an Ontario VQA sparkling wine!

These exciting and effervescent wines are typically made in larger batches for a fun, fruity fizz, or in smaller batches for a refined complex, sparkle. They're perfect for turning any gathering into an occasion to celebrate.

Some great options include Huff Estates Cuvée Peter 2021, the Marynissen Estates Blanc De Blancs 2020, and Ravine Vineyard Brut.

The dreamer

Are you a hopeless romantic? Maybe you view life through rose-coloured glasses? Or should we say, glasses with a tint of rosé. 

Sometimes sweet, sometimes not-so-sweet, but always light and bursting with flavour, rosé is perfect for the dreamers out there.

Try the Fresh Wines Rosé, an assemblage rosé made from aromatic grapes, 13th Street Winery Expression Series Cabernet Franc Rosé 2023, or Adamo Underdog Rosé 2022. 

The diva

If you're someone who likes the finer things in life, look no further than a graceful, poignant Pinot Noir. 

There's a reason this wine is often the most expensive on the shelf. It's like a red carpet catwalk in a glass; luxurious, complex and oh-so-sophisticated.

Try the Domaine Queylus La Grande Réserve Pinot Noir 2020, Hidden Bench Pinot Noir Felseck Vineyard 2021, or Organized Crime Sacred Series Tara Block Pinot Noir Unfiltered 2020. 

The jester

You come off nice, you're well-liked by everyone — but underneath it all, you've got a mischievous side. 

Riesling might seem sweet at first, but it'll surprise you with its refreshing bite of acidity. Just like you! 

Some top picks here include the Thirty Bench Small Lot Riesling Wood Post Vineyard 2021, Two Sisters Riesling 2021, and Megalomaniac Narcissist Riesling 2021.

The wunderkind

You sing, you dance, you cook gourmet meals, and you can fix a leaky faucet! Some might call you a jack of all trades. Chardonnay is your go-to!

Just like you, Chardonnay is super versatile. Buttery, creamy, peachy, citrusy, and sometimes even oak-y, you'll never know until you try.

But one thing is for sure, it's a real crowd-pleaser. Check out Cloudsley Cellars Twenty Mile Bench Chardonnay 2022, Henry of Pelham Speck Family Reserve Chardonnay 2022 or Konzelmann Chardonnay Barrel Aged Reserve Series 2022.
