With over two decades of hands-on experience, I’ve successfully partnered with importers and wineries across diverse markets, facilitating their bottled and bulk wine supply needs. My expertise extends predominantly to sourcing bottled and bulk wines from regions like Chile, Argentina, and Spain, although my proficiency isn’t confined to these territories alone. I also have gained vast knowledge to provide options of various wine varietals to meet your customer expectations.
New Solutions for Wineries from British Columbia, Canada Post-2024 Freeze Event
I am pleased to announce that as a winemaker and wine broker based in Kelowna, BC, since September 2012, I am now offering tailored solutions to help wineries navigate the challenges brought on by the January 2024 freeze event.
With the B.C. government’s recent commitment to support wineries during this challenging time, we are focused on providing essential services with grapes, grape juices, and unfinished wines to ensure that wineries can continue to produce quality wines even amidst the grape shortage.
Key Offerings From Washington, Chile, Argentina and Spain.
- Grapes and Grape Juice Supplies: Authorized non-BC grapes and juices to help meet your production needs.
- Unfinished Wines: This includes first fermentation for whites and malolactic fermentation for reds, ensuring continuity in your wine production process.
The BC government has extended the relief period until March 31, 2028, giving wineries the flexibility needed to recover and sustain production. This includes the option to use non-BC grapes and unfinished wines while maintaining your classification as a land-based winery.
This initiative is crucial for the industry’s recovery and will help secure jobs within the province. I am committed to collaborating closely with wineries to make the most of this opportunity and to support the creation of exceptional wines that BC is known for.
