The MLC (Manitoba Liquor Commission) also controls liquor in this province. They do have access to a wide selection of wines, but they never seem to have a wide selection. Every MLC in town has its own individual that places orders so you can find some product variation in each store, but they mostly carry the same old stuff. Asking for a custom order is rarely successful.
Unlike Ontario, private wine stores are allowed in Manitoba, however they can ONLY buy items approved by the MLC. On the plus side, you could get these wines at both stores, but as i said, the MLC rarely has a ton out of the ordinary whereas the private shops go out of their way to find the different selections allowed under the MLC umbrella.
It is a weird arrangement to say the least.
At least i know that the private wine stores cannot sell their products at a value greater than what is sold at the MLC. You can never overpay unless it is the gov't setting the price!
