About Glengarry Wines - Kelburn

Glengarry Wines is a New Zealand wine, spirits and beer retailer that has been delivering fine wine since 1945. The business operates a network of physical stores across Auckland — including Victoria Park, Herne Bay, Ponsonby, Bassett Road, Khyber Pass, Parnell and Westmere — alongside a full online shop, with the same service, product quality and pricing promised across every channel, physical or online.

The range spans red, white, rosé, sparkling, champagne, dessert and fortified wines, alongside a large spirits and whisky selection covering bourbon, gin, rum, tequila, vodka and single malt whisky, plus a dedicated beer and cider range from mainstream lagers through to craft ales, stouts and sours. Glassware, gift hampers, and food and non-alcoholic options round out the catalogue.

Beyond retail, Glengarry runs tasting events and clubs — including a Craft Beer Club, Fine Wine tastings, a Pinot Noir Club, Spirit Tastings and a Wine Academy — across its Auckland stores, and offers function and event space hire for private and corporate gatherings. The business also runs En Primeur for Bordeaux wine futures and a separate Whisky Shop, alongside its own Wineletter publication for customers who want to keep up with new releases and specials.

Glengarry Wines: Auckland's Long-Running Wine, Spirits and Beer Retailer

Glengarry Wines has been delivering fine wine since 1945, and over the decades has grown into one of Auckland's best-known destinations for wine, spirits and craft beer. The business runs a network of physical stores across the city — Victoria Park, Herne Bay, Ponsonby, Bassett Road, Khyber Pass, Parnell and Westmere — while also operating a full online store that carries the same products, pricing and service as the bricks-and-mortar locations.

Bricks and Mortar, By Design

Glengarry describes its physical stores as a deliberate choice — the belief that customers still want to touch and taste the product before buying. Each store carries the same offer and pricing as the online shop, physical or online, which the business calls its guarantee. It's an approach built around promotional activity and quality staff that the company says has been core to its strategy since it started in 1945.

A Wide-Ranging Catalogue

The wine range covers red, white, rosé, sparkling, champagne, dessert and fortified wines, along with dedicated Low & No Alcohol and Eco Friendly categories, and a curated Fine Wine selection for more serious buyers. Spirits and whisky are similarly broad, spanning bourbon, gin, rum, tequila, vodka, brandy/cognac and vermouth, plus American, Irish, Scotch, Single Malt, New Zealand and Australian whisky.

The beer and cider range moves from mainstream lagers through to craft ale, dark beer, gluten-free options, pale ale, pilsner, sours and stout, alongside apple and pear cider and growler fills for anyone wanting a fresh pour to take home.

Tastings, Clubs and Learning

Glengarry runs a calendar of tasting events across its Auckland stores, including a Craft Beer Club, Fine Wine tastings, a Pinot Noir Club, Spirit Tastings and a Wine Academy for those wanting to build their knowledge rather than just their cellar. Past events are also tracked by store, so regulars can see what's been on at their local branch.

Functions, Gifting and More

For private or corporate events, Glengarry offers functions and room hire, with quotes available for parties and events. On the gifting side, the range includes gift vouchers, DIY build-your-own gifts, pre-packaged and hamper options, and themed gifts for occasions like birthdays, Father's Day, Mother's Day and Valentine's Day.

Glassware is another part of the offer, with brands like Riedel, Spiegelau and Eisch alongside cocktail and wine accessories, rounding out the shop for anyone setting up a home bar or cellar properly.

Beyond the Core Business

Glengarry also operates En Primeur for Bordeaux wine futures and a separate Whisky Shop, and publishes its own Wineletter to keep customers informed on new releases and specials. Delivery and Click & Collect options make the online catalogue accessible to customers who aren't near one of the Auckland stores, while the free phone line, 0800 733 505, connects directly to the business for enquiries. All prices are listed in New Zealand dollars inclusive of GST, and, as with any licensed alcohol retailer, purchases require customers to be 18 or over.
