Testimonials

"We have known David now for 5 years, and in that time we have received fantastic and personalised service. David is only too happy to make us up a mixed dozen or so, which he delivers personally to our home; we simply let him know "white or red"! Over the years he has remembered our favourite varietals, but always puts in a surprise or two.  We have discovered some great wines as a result. The prices are always competitive and the quality of the wine never fails to disappoint. Garry and Phil, Herne Bay"

"I've known David for 12 years and had the pleasure of being in business next door. Then....when it all began & again now that it comes full circle. Prompt, friendly service from a guy that definately knows his wine... myself & my customers benefit time and time again! Welcome Back " Helen Pfister-Barry Spuntino Cafe

Dave has been my lifeline in times of sending that all important 'sweetener' or 'thank you' for that all important client. 

Dave has also been my supplier of Xmas gifts fulfilling, budget and product needs with complete satisfaction.

A professional and very friendly manner - you'd call him your mate - (and not just because he owns a Wine outlet).

"When I talk about "my wine man", I get such curious looks.  But as soon as my guests taste the wine, pretty soon they are asking for his name!  A special Italian themed dinner party, cheap quaffing wine or a corporate function for 200 people - David has always supplied beautiful, affordable wine for any occasion.  If you like extraordinary wines on any budget, you should make my wine man yours." Lexie Ribot TVNZ  Business Marketing Manager

“Over 11 years ago we discovered David’s wine shop in Albany and came to know David as a good friend and wine connoisseur.  We trust David to recommend not only affordable “drink now” wine but also quality cellaring wine that we can enjoy in years to come.   David has a wealth of knowledge when matching wine with food and has solved many a dinner party dilemma for us.    David goes out of his way to source wine for us if we have a special request. We highly recommend David to all our friends.  - Paul and Kim Kendall”

"I have been using WineandMore for many years now.  David makes it easy. I just call, let him know if I need white, red or sparkling and a price and the courier (or sometimes David himself) arrives at my door with my order.  In all the years I have known David he has never sent a wine I didn't like.  Which considering the amount I've bought over the years - is a sensational hit rate!" Carmel Bennett Roadshow NZ

"David at Wine and More always goes the extra mile for his customers – whether its simply remembering the type of Savvy you like to drink and recommending similar wines to help develop your palate, or ensuring you have enough drinks to cover your wedding.  We have been customers of David’s for over 4 years and would thoroughly recommend Wine and More to any discerning customer.  His knowledge and fantastic service leave David and the team at Wine and More streets ahead of their competition"

"What I really like about buying my wines from David / Wine & More is how he just knows what I'm going to like.  Being a wine-enjoyer rather than a wine connosuier, I simply tell David what varieties I'm looking for and then he pulls together a selection that he believes I'll enjoy while also falling within my budget.  I've been buying wine from David for about  4 years now and I've thoroughly enjoyed every selection he has made for me.  He has a great way of remembering what I've particularly enjoyed previously, and then recommending something similar for me to try - and he's never failed to deliver yet!  When I needed to pull together a selection of reds as a special Thank You gift for someone who I knew appreciated good wines, I put David to the test.  The feedback I received from that gift was "whoever selected these wines, sure knew their wines!" .  Having followed David from Ponsonby to Three Kings and now to Albany, I wish him every success and thoroughly recommend him to anyone wanting to enjoy good wines, fair pricing, and top notch service."

"I have been dealing with David for approximately 5 years both as a commercial and a personal customer.

 I have found him knowledgeable and helpful and his ability to source a wine to suit my needs has always impressed me.

 Over the years he has greatly expanded my knowledge and experience of wine, often recommending blends and grapes I had not previously encountered with accurate descriptions and tailored to my tastes.

 I have particularly enjoyed setting him loose to create a mix – there’s always something new in the box.

 He is prompt with deliveries and his invoices and statements have always been clear and accurate.

 I look forward to dealing with him for many more years."
