What started as a winemaking venture in Glengarry Road, Auckland has now developed into New Zealand's largest family-owned liquor retailer, with 17 stores throughout the country and an eCommerce website. Started by Joseph Jakicevich in 1940 Glengarry was New Zealand's first retailer to hold a liquor licence, importing wine from around the world when we were all still drinking locally made 'hock'. Yip, we like to think we changed the way we all drink.
The range at Glengarry covers all bases, everything from great value everyday wine sub $10 to the top wines in the world, Chateau Lafite, Mouton Rothschild and Petrus included. The range of wines Glengarry stocks is unlike anything else in New Zealand, the local range is extensive, the Australian Wine selection well balanced, the Spanish Range is the biggest range of quality Spanish Wine in New Zealand, the French wine range covers the breadth and depth of France, the Italian Range is growing rapidly. Then there's Chilean wine, Portuguese Wine, Argentinean Wine and much much more. Now that's just the wine, there's premium spirits, including eclectic things like Armagnac, Pineau, rare Single Malt Whisky. Oh and don't forget to check out the Hand Crafted Beer range.
