It's our 3 year anniversary week!
On the 10th of October 2019 we invited about 30 VIP customers (from previous wine business) for a wine tasting to announce our new business name!
We were delighted to start on a series of events in late 2019 and early 2020, planning a wine documentary screening in April 2020. Little did we know that social distancing, masks and rules would continue past our 2nd anniversary ... and our next event wouldn't be possible until April 2022 :(
So here we are now. 3 years later.
Finally events are back on track ...
Plus, we have been delighted to expand the range of products we offer beyond wine, including the Sagrantino juice and jam from Umbria; the grappa and brandy from Trentino; the amaro from Sicily; and the extra virgin olive oil from up and down the Italian peninsula ... all products from our beloved wineries!
Thanks to the support of loyal customers here in Singapore we have had enough demand over these last difficult 3 years to justify repeat orders from our small-production, family-run estates in Italy (many we've worked with since 2013).
Those orders made a big difference to small wineries. They continue to message us their thanks and this year we have been trying to support them as much as possible again. Just like here, much of the F&B industry has been affected in Italy, so these family wineries that usually sell locally have struggled. Our orders for the Singapore market may seem small compared to the big wine merchants, but to our Italian wineries it can really help in tough times!
Last year we also moved our home office (and coldroom - where we pack for same/next-day deliveries) to a location with more space for events. This means we can now accommodate up to 14 guests for wine tastings and intimate dinners.
The wine documentary screening event is still on hold but we hope to finalise dates very soon.
What's next?
We're looking ahead to more events and new wines for the portfolio!
We are currently re-stocking popular bottles, as we prepare for Christmas and CNY2023.
We are also excited to feature many new vintages and new wines at our tasting events!
Hopefully you'll be able to join us soon for a tasting session ... but until then you can celebrate with us this week when you enjoy a 15% DISCOUNT on our website (with a minimum spend of $150), applicable to ALL* our fabulous wines (including magnums) as well as products like vinegar, oil, grappa, vermouth, jam and more - the entire online store!
* just a few very low stock labels aren't on promo this week but you still have 300+ labels to explore!
Just don't wait too long ...
The code is only valid until midnight on Monday (10 October).
So be quick. Go grab your favourites NOW.
