My grandparents would walk some 10km and work until 12:00pm, and then return home,weary from the days physical excursions, almost every day of the year, come rain or shine, just to make their own wine. Where It All BeganThen I came along, and along came the tractors; the donkey was retired; but still, almost everymorning for a few more years, my grandparents continued their work on the vineyards with thesame commitment and the same pride that went into making their own wine and freely sharingtheir enthusiasm and knowledge of wine making with their grandsons.In our family food and wine were not considered commodities, for us, they are one of life’s realpleasures to be savoured and remembered.We have the same passion and commitment at Italyabroad.com, everything we import is madewith love, care and with passion, from real people, with faces and with stories to tell, just like mygrandparents.So, why us?At Italyabroad.com we believe in quality Italian wine and food, we are passionate and believe that drinking and eating well is a joy and it is good for our body and mind.We only work with small and passionate Italian wine makers and artisans that respect the environment.All our wines are made with handpicked grapes and our food is made with only the best, healthiest ingredients, no long list of preservatives, and do not contain Palm oil.Our products are not industrially made and are good for our health and the environment.When is the last time you got excited when tasting something Italian?Or, when was the last time you went to Italy on holiday and said “I wish I could find this at home?”We are all about quality Italian wine and food from small producers, this is what we have always been, since we started in 2003.

When you pay too much, you lose a little moneythat's all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable ofdoing the thing it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot - it can't be done."John Ruskin“We saw a lot of new submitters at this year’s Sommelier Wine Awards, so competition for this award was intense. In the end, it went to Italyabroad.com – a Leeds-based company that was new to all of our judges. Key to its success was not just its ability to deliver four impressive Golds from a relatively small overall entry, but to deliver genuinely interesting wines at excellent prices"Sommeliers Wine Awards JudgesHaving read this far, these are our promises to you Outstanding Customer ServiceWe know everything there is toknow about our produce and arehappy to help you find what youlooking forDelivered To Your DoorstepNext day delivery available and free delivery if you spend over a certain amountThe Italyabroad.com PromiseIf you dont like the wine or youthink is faulty, or are not satisfiedwith any the food purchased, wewill replace or refund it, noquestions asked.Get Started Now© Copyright 2003-2022 Italy Abroad Network Ltd.
