St. Louis Wine Festival a Huge Success!
Posted on Oct 7, 2009
One of our favorite aspects of this business is seeing people enjoying the wines we have selected. We poured six wines on Saturday and Sunday at the St. Louis Wine Festival’s "Bacchus in the Basin" in Forest Park. Nathan and I poured the wines at the Ionia Atlantic table on Saturday, and though I wasn’t there long, I met a few loyal customers on Sunday as well. Hundreds of wine lovers flocked to our table, several commenting that it was the best wine of the show, their new favorite wine, and taking photos with their phone so they can find it again. We appreciate the comments and truly love hearing them! Trust me, they never get old!
With our Missouri wholesale division in its early stages, many customers are wondering where to purchase the wine they tasted at the show. Our sales representatives are showing these wines to restaurants and retailers all over St. Louis and the Metro East. Just check with your favorite retailer and if they do not have it, ask them to order it for you! We are located in the heart of St. Louis and can get special orders out right away, just have them call us at 314.865.4925. If your local retailer isn’t helpful, call or email us and we’ll help you find one who is! Check back soon for a blog featuring our current local retailers.
Sometimes it can be difficult to remember all the wines you loved, so here is a refresher of the wines Ionia Atlantic poured this weekend. Thank you again to all of the wine lovers who visited our table, our business would be nothing without you!
