Thanks for your kind comments about our fair city, and I'm glad to hear you enjoy your visits here. We Vancouverites are kinda partial to the place, in spite of the rain in the winter.

Re: your request for favourite wineshops:
By far, the very best place to go is the above mentioned specialty wine shop at 39th and Cambie in Vancouver. This store is the "flagship" store for the entire province, and carries all wines that are available anywhere in the province. (Not all stores carry all wines, but this one does.) (However, they may be out-of-stock on an item at any point in time! )

This store is operated by the provincial Liquor Distribution Branch. There are also many privately owned wine shops around the city, and they will sometimes bring in wines that are not available through the provincial LDB. But they are more expensive that the LDB stores.
Then there are the "Cold Beer and Wine" stores associated with pubs around the city, which again are more expensive than the LDB.

For your next visit, I would plan on going to the 39th and Cambie store for the best selection and price.
