American Estates Wines (AEW) began operating in 1985 as a selector and marketer of single vineyard and small estate California wineries. It introduced many of these brands to Metro New York, and later to the surrounding Northeastern states. Over the years it established a working relationship with many key accounts in this region.

In 1986, AEW began importing wine from New Zealand and Australia. For New Zealand wines, that makes it the longest standing company continuously importing into the USA. The Australian wines are range from one of the Barossa’s top rated Shiraz - Turkey Flat - to, arguably, the most famous name in the Tasmanian wine industry, Pirie Tasmania.

Recently, the New World-style wines from Spain have been added to the portfolio with reds and whites from five different D.O.s that have already received critical acclaim.

And NEW this year, the Chilean brand Estampa!!

The common point among all these wines is commitment to excellence in the vineyard and in the winery. AEW, in turn, is committed to delivering the highest quality brand management through its distributor network in selected markets nationwide.                   -American Estates Wines
