In coordination with our Sommelier, GV Selections has carefully selected about 20 smaller Italian wineries that produce excellent hand-crafted premium and niche wines, most with excellent quality/price ratios.
Here is a taste of what we can offer:
a choice of 120+ good value wines from all over Italy, many of which are multiple national and international award winners;
a growing collection of organic, biodynamic, natural and sustainable wines as well as specific knowledge of numerous "off the beaten path" wines that are not always listed in our portfolio;
smaller minimum order requirements;
FDA import authorization and account management for the wineries, relieving the importer of these tasks;
promotion and marketing support (coordination of visits by the winemakers, shelf talkers, label development, data sheets, images, etc.);
consolidation and management of groupage shipments through various international shippers (Gori, Hillebrand, etc.), with continuous updates of shipment status;
an Italian wine specialist, who is fluent in the local language and in constant contact with the winery and can negotiate with them on your behalf and also resolve any issues that may arise;
management of all Italian-side operations and documentation (sampling, shipments, consolidations, COLA waivers, labelling approvals, prior notices, pro-forma invoices, etc.);
organizing of tours to visit our wineries so that you can meet them and discover for yourself that they not only make quality wine but they are also quality people (another reason why we have selected them).
