The best budget-friendly white wines you can get delivered in Ontario

Nothing’s better than finding an inexpensive wine that drinks like a big-budget bottle. With the summer in full swing, crisp and easy-drinking white wines are at the top of many wine lovers’ minds – but, naturally, so is a good bargain.

To help narrow down the options, we asked WineOnline to search through their massive collection for the best crowdpleasing whites available for under $25 per bottle. All of them – available to order in a convenient 12-bottle case – can be delivered all over Ontario.

These five selections are big on flavour and complexity – and easy on the wallet.

Hacienda Lopez de Haro Rioja Blanco by Bodega Classica 2018

Made from Viura grapes grown on 50-to-80 year-old vines near San Vicente de la Sonsierra in Rioja Alta, this complex, slightly-spicy rioja blanco is aged for three months in French oak barrels. The nose brings in white fruit and flowers, with riper fruit lingering on the palate. Clocking in at well under the $20 mark, this is one of the best bargain white wines you can find in Ontario – bar none. $15.95 / 750mL bottle ($191.40 / case). Buy at WineOnline.ca.
