Fifteen years ago, our founders were sitting across a table from one another enjoying an exquisite bottle of wine on a tropical island in the Caribbean. It was at that moment that the seeds were planted for what today has become Balentine Imports.

Family, Tradition, Integrity and Passion are just some of the words that describe how we run our business and what we look for in a wine. We are passionate about small family run vineyards who have passed down their craftsmanship from generation to generation, some dating back hundreds of years. Vineyards who’s history is rich in family tradition and uncompromising in the quality of their wine.

We only partner with very limited production vineyards, families who do not believe in mass distribution, and winemakers who put quality above all else.

There is plenty of good wine in the open marketplace, however, good is not good enough for us.

Fifteen years later our founders still look at each other with that same passion and cherish the relationships they’ve built with winemaking families around the world.
