Founded in 1954, the McAlindon family’s enthusiasm for wine has led to an award-winning retail, wholesale, wine education and wine producer business. From bottling Guinness and wine in the 1950’s to importing from family owned and artisan producers.
The trade side of the company ‘McAlindon Wines’ supplies many of the leading hotels, restaurants and independent wine shops in Northern Ireland.
Direct Wine Shipments ‘punches well above its weight’ and is the only Northern Ireland Wine company to be voted the ‘Best Merchant in the U.K.’
“Our friendly, passionate and knowledgeable team are happy to advise on all your wine needs.”
“We can think of few other companies which are passionate about both wine itself and about making sure their customers share their enthusiasm. Wine snobbery in this particular area of Belfast is refreshingly absent”
