TWO WAYS TO BUY OUR WINES
Some of our wines are already on the shelves
Les Vins Horizon represents its producers to the SAQ. A portion of our portfolio is therefore listed in stores: these wines can be purchased by the bottle, immediately, with no order or wait time.
The rest of our selection is available through private import: wines we bring in from the estate, sold by the case and picked up at the branch of your choice.
These are not two different qualities. It is the same selection process, with two different paths of access.
COMPARING THE TWO
| At the SAQ | Private Import | |
|---|---|---|
| Quantity | By the bottle | By the case (1, 3, 6 or 12) |
| Where to buy | In store or on SAQ.com | Here, in our shop |
| Payment | Entirely at the SAQ | Service fee here, product cost at the SAQ |
| Wait time | Immediate, if in stock | From a few days to several weeks |
| Selection | The wines we have had listed | Our entire portfolio |
FINDING OUR WINES IN STORE
The SAQ code, your reference
Each listed wine has a seven or eight-digit SAQ code. It is the official product identifier: give it to a store consultant or enter it into the SAQ.com search bar, and you will go directly to the right bottle, the right vintage, and the right format.
We include this code on each of our product pages. Availability, however, varies from one store to another: SAQ.com displays real-time inventory by location.
FOR RESTAURATEURS
Ordering a listed wine for your establishment
A product listed at the SAQ can be ordered through your establishment's usual channels. We can assist you with placement, training your floor staff, and pairings for your menu.
Email us with the name of your establishment and the references you are interested in.

A CLARIFICATION
We do not sell alcohol
In Quebec, the Société des alcools du Québec holds the exclusive right to import and sell alcoholic beverages. Our role is to select producers, represent them, and transport their wines. The transaction for the alcohol always remains with the SAQ.
This applies to both listed wines and private imports.
