About the Producer
Vintage and Vine - Wine Importers and Wholesalers Vintage and Vine was established in 2000 by David Burkitt and Kevin Facey following their sale of World Wine Estates and Ultimo Wine Centre in 1999. Following Kevin's retirement in 2006, David and his team have continued to build Vintage and Vine into one of Australia's most highly regarded specialist importers and distributors of French wines and spirits. Today the Vintage and Vine portfolio is still substantially French in provenance, though we now also represent a small selection of wines from Austria and Germany, as well as a selection of small premium Australian wine producers from south-east Australia as well as some of the finest and most established vineyards in eastern and southern Tasmania (and some of the newest). Most of the producers we represent have small vineyard holdings ranging from just 3 to 13 hectares of vines which are mostly farmed according to sustainable, organic or bio-dynamic principles producing wines with minimal intervention which reflect the environment in which they are grown and which are represented in many of Australia’s finest restaurants. We have only ever shipped in refrigerated containers and we manage our own temperature controlled warehouses in Sydney and Melbourne. We deliver wherever possible using our own temperature control vans in order to maintain the best and fastest possible service at every level of our business. Our aim remains to offer quality, service and advice that is second to none.
