About Sam's Importing Ltd.

Sam's Importing Ltd.

We are as unique a winery as you will find. Since we do not have our own vineyard, we must search the globe for top quality grapes; from the fruit belt of Ontario, west to California and east to Italy.

Our fathers of Italian background, started their own wine-making business by importing grapes from California. They shared their skills and passion for the wine-making process. They supported a culture for local wine-makers to purchase grapes and create unique wines. We continue to embrace and share this heritage by creating our own wines.

At our retail outlet, you will find from Italian grapes, Nero D'avola, Shiraz, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malvasia Aromatica, Malvasia Velvet and a unique dessert wine called 'Sun Wine'. From California, our Silver Edition wines include Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Locally, you will find VQA wines that include Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir and Vidal.

We carry wines from 750 ml bottles to 16 litres bag-in-a box. The latter is the most environmentally friendly format of packaging wine. Everything is 100% recyclable! This packaging allows you to pour directly from the spout. The collapsible bag protects the wine from oxidizing. The great advantage for the consumer is that if you only want a glass of wine with dinner, you pour one glass and not worry about the rest. No need to pay for bottles, allowing you to save money on the price of wine. It is a win-win situation for you and the environment.

We pride ourselves on making wine and wine-making accessible to everyone, providing quality products at great value. We also carry a wide range of domestic and imported cheeses, with particular focus on Italian cheeses. Yes, wine and cheese tastings are available.

Come and visit our winery in Hamilton for wines to serve all occasions. Salute!
