Why Buy Wine Online?

Buying wine online may seem unnecessary to you at first. If you can buy wine at your local bottle shop, liquor store or supermarket then why should you bother buying wine online?

Well, the answer is that it is all about choice...

Did you know? There are over 2,000 wineries across Australia.

And if you shop for wine at your local bottle shop, liquor store or supermarket, you could easily be mistaken for thinking that you are buying the wines from these 2,000 wineries as there are just so many "brands" to choose from.

However this is not so... in fact the biggest 5 wine conglomerates own over 90% of these wines – giving you the illusion of choice.

Over 90% of Australia's wineries don't sell their wines at bottle shops, liquor stores and supermarkets. Why? Simply because they are too small to sell the large volumes needed.

These small boutique wineries rely on passing visitors to stop at their cellar door.

So if you want the choice of enjoying the top quality wines from Australia's boutique wineries without driving to the cellar door then you can shop online at BoutiqueWineries.com.au. Here you'll find a wide selection of wines from around 150 of these small wineries.

Every year nearly 5 million people visit Australian wine regions on winery tours. And they do this to:

  • Enjoy wines that are uniquely different to the mass-produced wines found at bottle shops, liquor stores and local supermarkets
  • Experience the romance of wines direct from where they were made – at the cellar door

Why?

The answer was simply stated by one of our winery owners, who used this delightful chocolate analogy:

"It is a bit like chocolate. A 250 gram family block of dairy milk chocolate is nice and there is plenty to share, but a 50 gram piece of hand made exquisite Belgium chocolate is considered a luxury treat to be savoured. Many of us make the mistake of forgetting to treat ourselves. Every bottle of boutique wine is a lesson in how to enjoy life and life should be enjoyed every day - not just on "special" occasions."

And another comment from a different winery owner:

"This is a labour of love. Machines cannot do it. Mass produced wines come from vineyards that have little or no personalised attention. How could they possibly be anywhere near as good?"

So by ordering wine online from BoutiqueWineries.com.au you have access to these boutique wines regardless of their geographic location.. and all of this with:

  • A smooth, easy buying experience
  • Confidence that the wine is good
  • The opportunity for small orders with our low minimum order sizes
  • Easy payment options

So if you want a wider choice in wines, then online is the way to go. Use the convenience of this online buying experience to pursue (or launch) your passion for new, exciting and different wines.

To begin with, sign up for the Boutique Wineries newsletter where you will experience some of the cellar door romance, virtually. Discover the winemaking process, learn about different aspects of wine and meet the boutique wineries on a virtual winery tour.
