In 2023 Hallgarten Wines celebrates 90 years since Fritz Hallgarten, father of Peter Hallgarten, arrived in the UK and started selling wine to restaurants and retail outlets across the country under the name ‘Hallgarten Wines’. Specialising in wines from Germany and the Rhône Valley, Fritz was one of the country’s experts of these wine regions, and built relationships with suppliers that continue at Hallgarten Wines to this day.

In 1947 the company was officially incorporated – and the rest is history!
