Wine Direct
For more than 25 years we’ve been supplying wine lovers with what we call “real wines”. Wines that aren’t found in supermarkets or chain liquor stores. Wines with character, made by interesting people from fascinating parts of the world. And while the business has grown a fair bit over the years, the big idea behind Wine Direct hasn't changed all that much. We've always believed the strength of our business is in our wines and in our people. That's why we've never stopped looking for hard-to-find, great-tasting, great value wines. And we've never stopped looking for talented people, with a wealth of wine knowledge, to help us get those wines into good homes.
The Fine Wine Delivery Company
The Fine Wine Delivery Company had its modest beginning from our home on Auckland’s North Shore over 10-years ago. Armed with a clear vision and consumed with a passion to succeed I had no idea we would one day become New Zealand’s leading fine wine retailer.
It was born over a luncheon in Ponsonby and formalised over a coffee on a boat moored at Westhaven in concert with close friend and founding shareholder Bryan Chitham who remains a shareholder today.
Incorporated on 23 June 1997 our first official trading day was 1 August. I vividly remember hosting a tasting for around sixty willing friends of friends securing $5,000 worth of orders that night and feeling like we had just won lotto. The next day I was a one man band having to invoice the wine, manually process credit card payments, order in the wine, despatch it and do the banking, that’s how good business’s start.

Station Imports
Station Imports is a fine wine importer bringing superior wines from the boutique vineyards of New Zealand into the United States.
In New Zealand a Station is a large property, often thousands of square kilometers in size whose main activity is the raising of sheep. Most of New Zealand’s finest vineyards were started on the least productive areas of these large Stations in regions that were thought to be good for growing grapes not lambs. Station Imports takes it's name to honor New Zealand high country Stations and their efforts to adapt their land to the production of fine wine.
The Loving family adopted New Zealand as their second home in 1998 and since then have fully invested in the country and the life style. Wine being one of the things they enjoyed about New Zealand, they have dedicated themselves to bringing the best wines New Zealand has to offer to the United States. We started by importing Central Otago Pinot Noirs and have since widened our scope to bringing into the USA classic Sauvignon Blancs from Marlborough and the delectable Syrah of Hawkes Bay.
Our portfolio of wines includes the oldest vineyard in New Zealand as well as one of the newest. We are now working with ten wine varietals from three wine growing regions from five different vineyards. All of our vineyards are certified sustainable, one is certified organic and two are biodynamic. It’s exciting times in the wine industry but what is most important is that Station Imports knows New Zealand wine and we are having a good time bringing that wine to you.

Our staff has decades of wine experience from retailing to judging and even wine making. Every bottle of wine that passes through our door is scrutinised, evaluated and debated. Because quality and value is paramount, many wines are tasted but few are chosen.
