Why
We make it easier for US importers and distributors of quality Italian wines and specialty regional foods to taste, compare, learn about, select, order and distribute unique items from select Italian small- and medium-sized producers. We have experts, Italian and otherwise, who know the wine regions and are familiar with the producers, as well as the American palate in wine and food, who are dedicated to finding new, locally respected estates, tasting their products, enquiring as to production output and methods, and finally, either deciding to add the products to our portfolio, or turning them down should they fail to meet expectations.
Next: Let's go to Italy!
On the occasion of the 40th Annual Vinitaly, WineCountry.IT is organizing a VIP trip to Italy for US wine and food professionals. The trip includes three days at Vinitaly, the most prestigious wine event in Italy and arguably the world, as well as three days visiting selected wineries and specialty food producers in different regions.
Strictly limited number. Maximum 14 participants. Interested? Contact us
If we don't trust the quality of the products ourselves, we don't bring them over.
