imported wines

Bottles from abroad

Imported wines are wines brought into a country from foreign producers.

The phrase appears on menus, wine lists, and retail signage to distinguish bottles from abroad—typically France, Italy, Spain, or other traditional wine regions—from domestic offerings.

The restaurant's imported wines section featured several Burgundies.

The label often implies quality or prestige, though it simply indicates origin.
