Gems to awaken your senses

My goal is to make you discover superb wines from all over the world and allow you to taste them before buying bottles.

 

 

From industry to wine

After thirty years of career in industry, including twenty years spent managing SMEs, I realized that the time was finally come to privilege the pleasure to the career.
So I decided to make my passion my job by launching myself in the marketing of wines.

As you may know, the price of a wine is determined by the average of all the scores awarded by the major world critics (Parker, Wine Spectator, Vinous, ...). Thus, for a given rating, an average price is observed.
After being professionally trained by passing the WSET 3 in order to improve my knowledge of all the producing regions and the grape varieties worldwide, I spent a year studying the ratings of several thousand wines to select 60 which, for their rating level, had the characteristic of costing 1/4 of the average price of wines of this level.
I only chose wines with an average score between 93 and 98 out of 100, so wines ranging from "excellent" to "quite exceptional"; and I selected gems that come from the eleven major wine regions: France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Argentina, Chile, United States, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.

My initial project ...


My initial objective was to make you discover the regions of the world by organizing tastings of 5 wines from a particular region around a good meal in a restaurant, including tasting training with aroma vials to teach you how to recognize the aromas of wine.

I had found restaurateurs who wanted to host these tastings, to think about food and wine pairings and to offer a suitable meal. The price levels for these events were fixed, depending on the level of catering offered. I had also, after many difficulties, managed to find importers, wholesalers and winegrowers willing to give me an allocation on the wines I had selected.

At the beginning of 2020, the health crisis, leading to the closure of restaurants, defeated (temporarily)  this project.

... which I had to adapt due to the circumstances.


Not wanting to lose the fruit of my labor, and wishing to share it with you, I have adapted my concept by now offering tastings at a distance rather than face-to-face; this was made possible by the discovery of a supplier capable of putting wine in miniature bottles (vinottes) while preserving its organoleptic qualities for 3 months thanks to a patented process.
 

And here you are today on this site!

Let yourself be seduced by the wines offered by tasting them thanks to the vinottes. Good tasting !
