Hedonism Wines based in has created a new level of retail wine experience for high net worth private clients in the 4 years since it was established in Mayfair. I have been a part of award team winning team building a high growth, profitable business while winning awards for its customer service. I manage a portfolio of international high net worth clients, organising and conducting regular tastings of fine Wines and Champagne for individuals, groups and corporates. These tastings create a unique experience for our clients and are a key part of developing the customer relationships through an opportunity to share my knowledge and passion for wines and spirits. Over the past 3 years I have built up strong relationships with a wide ranging portfolio of international clients resulting in personal sales in excess of £1.6m last year. I have developed a good understanding of logistics to support the international sales, through shipping on a weekly base to clients both inside and outside the EU.
