New wine agencies listing on WINEfindr

April 28th, 2010

Since we’ve launched the WINEfindr app, we’ve continued to work hard to bring on board new and exciting wines to be part of the app database. As well as adding plenty of wines that users themselves have uploaded and asked us to include, we’re also working away, building lots of relationships with importers and wine agencies in the UK – the folk who actually bring the wines into the country, and fly the flag here on behalf of the producers.

In the past week, we’ve added wines from the following agency companies:

Ehrmanns
Stratford’s Wines
Louis Latour
Fields, Morris & Verdin

… and we’ve also added wines direct from the producers themselves, including:

Guigal
Luis Felipe Edwards
Skalli

There’s plenty more in the pipeline – with some big names due to deliver their wine details and bottle images this week, for inclusion very soon – we’ll keep you posted as we have more news for you … Someone answer that phone!

Wow – and what a birth – the App store – Vinopolis – TV – Radio – Press – and now… my very own Blog :)

On my Blog you will find me, and others I work with, talking about everything associated to me – it’s making me feel quite special to be honest!

Please be patient with me I am quite new to all this :)

Feel free to comment on anything I blog about, but be mindful of the fact that others are reading this.

Thanks
