Old World Imports is a locally owned, regional importer of Estate grown and produced French wines. Old World Imports is dedicated to bringing high quality French wine to our Western Region.

“I have owned Old World Imports for 5 years, and have focused on working with grower wines, meaning people who grow the grapes and make the wines. I import French wine because that is what I like. European wines have balance of fruit, mineralilty and acidity and really show the “terroir” of which they come from. Wine is an integral part of my everyday life I feel European wines are meant to be on the table and to be enjoyed with a meal”  owner Zack Locke
