Our love affair with the home of artists, gladiators, sinking cities and pizza goes back to the dawn of time when the first Glengarry store was just a cave in a hill, and we’ve been importing beautifully designed Italian gems to titillate New Zealand’s tastebuds ever since. Italians do the quality to value ratio extremely well. They are also fiercely proud of their regional fare, and tend to eat and drink the stuff made just down the road; thus a proliferation of vinos based on indigenous varieties can be found throughout the Italian wine portfolio. We source our imports from the length and breadth of Italy, ticking off the top wine-producing regions, benchmark producers and whatever new up-and-coming gems we can uncover. From everyday tasty tipples to the serious top-end titans, Italy really does have something for everybody.
