Thank you so much for your kind words about our bubbly! We know the LCBO site shows this product as discontinued. It’s a little confusing because the discontinued version is only the 12-bottle case. Their new case weight restrictions changed our case configuration which of course came with a new product number. It he long and short of it is it’s really and administrative change. Our Brut itself has not been discontinued, it exists under a new product number. I hope that clarifies.
Thank you again.
