Robert Louis Stevenson once remarked that wine is like poetry. It's more than that. It's an expression of family, history and culture. It's an aesthetic as beautiful as art and music and nature and offers civility, humanity, and conviviality. It's part of "the good life" and I'm proud to introduce outstanding, artisanal wines to the US market.
I've worked several years in US wine importing, meeting with European producers and selecting wines for US markets. I know the challenges faced by winemakers looking to sell their wines in the US, and by importers looking for the best European wines at the best prices. Wine Connections USA assists passionate producers in finding the right US markets. Having launched many successful producers in the market, my success has always been a product of my belief in the honesty of their wines, the integrity with which they work, and my passion in educating and inspiring buyers as to what makes those wines so special. - John Spina |
