Curated Imports. Extraordinary Stories.

About Us

At Linara Wines, our journey begins with a deep love for discovery and an unwavering commitment to taste. Having explored over 25 wine regions and lived across four continents, we’ve built meaningful relationships with winemakers who craft wines of character, authenticity, and a true sense of place.

Our portfolio features boutique producers from France and Italy as well as standout wineries from Washington, Oregon, and California. Each wine we import is hand-selected not just for its quality, but for the story it tells.

Rooted in Idaho, our mission is to elevate the local wine experience by connecting retailers, restaurants, and collectors with remarkable wines that overdeliver in every way. We believe great wine doesn’t just taste exceptional, it creates connection and inspires curiosity.
