AOC Fine Wines (www.aocfinewines.com) is a network of small wine boutiques specialized in artisanal, mostly organic wines. We scour the globe in search of talented winemakers who use their expertise in service of their passion: great wine that respects the land, encouraging the optimal expression of the fruit that grows on it.
From New York’s Finger Lakes to Tasmania, AOC Fine Wines’s ever evolving catalog currently includes more than 600 wines from 150 winemakers. We want you to share our passion, and invite you to stop by for wine tastings, join us at wine dinners, discover our monthly wine club, enroll in AOC Fine Wines wine classes and of course, visit our stores.
At AOC Fine Wines we believe great wine is the product of true generosity. In this spirit, we contribute extensively to numerous community–based non-profit organizations benefiting the arts, education and the environment.
