Plonk Wine - looking for a Distributor in Colorado
It's approaching the end of January and it's time to try and expand distribution of plonk wines outside of Montana and Wyoming. So, I decided to contact Blair Taylor of Enotec Imports in Denver. For a young man, Mr. Taylor is one of the original fine wine importers in the States and his restaurant, Barolo Grill, is one of the finest in Denver. I worked with Blair as a rep for his wines when I worked for a Distributor called Grand Vin. I later sold his wines in my wine bar in Bozeman. He's a true pro and a true gentleman. He's why people love the wine business.
Anyway, I contacted Blair about Distribution in Denver and he suggested that I contact Kate Jankowski of Grand Vin. I used to work with Kate and I'm hoping she remembers me. I am going to try to set up a meeting and tasting sometime in late February. I know, as my friend Kurt Winegardner says, if you want to present your wine to a Distributor, you'd better be holding it in your hand. That means, don't just send the wine in a box and hope for the best. They get thousands of wines for samples. It's the story and the personality that will make the difference - at least that's what I'm hoping. Stay tuned.
