Fast-growing UK wine merchant Cellars Wines will showcase around 100 Californian wines from more than 20 producers at its portfolio tastings in London on 11 May and Manchester on 13 May.
The events mark a major milestone for the merchant, which recently took on the entire stock of Wine Treasury, significantly expanding its Californian portfolio.
“Since launching Cellars Wines, we’ve expanded rapidly — in stock size, team size and ambition. Our Californian portfolio includes some incredible wines that we’re excited to pour and share at our first tastings in London and Manchester. We look forward to welcoming both long-standing and new trade partners to discover more than 100 wines from across California,” said Joseph Rubin-Broad, Director of Wines at Cellars Wines.
The tastings will feature producers including Peter Michael Winery, Michael David Winery, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Orin Swift, J. Lohr, PIUS and Rodney Strong, with wines spanning key regions such as Napa Valley, Sonoma County, Paso Robles and Lodi.
“The UK is a dynamic and highly engaged market for premium Californian wines, and we’re excited to work closely with Cellars Wines to build long-term partnerships with the trade,” said Heather Hanks, Senior Director of Global Sales at Rodney Strong Vineyards.
Trade guests will have the opportunity to taste across the whole Californian range while meeting some of the winemakers - discussing the wines directly with the people behind them.
