Good Day my fellow wine buffs. I am in need of making wine for my brother's wedding and have the name of a couple of wines recommended by the caterer. I live in Montreal, Canada and would like to have it made and then bottle it myself. Does anyone know of a winery or store location in Montreal where I can do this?? I appreciate your help since I am having a hard time finding a location.

The way you frame the question, the answer is: it's illegal. You cannot bottle wine without a license.
You can have a private label slapped onto a wine, but for that you need to go to a winery and ask if that producer is interested in such an arrangement. Generally, you design, pay for and pay the government approval fees for the label, and the winery simply puts in on the bottles for you. Usually, the winery will not offer you its best wine for a private label.

Hi there WineGal and welcome to the board. In your and our countries, wineries are regulated out the kazoo and have to have a license to even start brewing. If you want to impress your guests with your lable on a wine, Windsor Wineries in Sonoma make some fairly decent juice at the price and will even put Buckos' name on the label. Good Luck WW.
