The portfolio began with a handful of superb Austrian producers, each from different regions.  All of them are family-owned and produce their wines with respect for the land and environment.  Austria will always be a specialty, due to their incredible freshness, high quality and food affinity.  Next to enter the portfolio is Germany, with a producer so unique and exceptional it occupies a very special place.  Beautifully balanced wines made with natural farming methods wrapped in modern, approachable packaging.  Italian wines are the next logical addition, given their wonderful diversity and obvious complement with food.  The Italian Portfolio is diverse and unique, with both classic wines and wines from emerging regions.  All of them are family-owned, of outstanding quality and use natural farming methods.

about us

COMPANY 

The name Salivate evolved from my passion for wines with mouthwatering freshness –which happens to also make the best food companions!  As such, the portfolio will always focus on balanced wines, generally from cooler climates, which retain good acidity and have moderate levels of alcohol.

MY STORY

I began my wine career in 1994 working in retails shops.  Within a short time I knew I wanted to work closer to the producers, so I eagerly moved over to the wholesale side of the industry, working in a variety of sales roles for a number of larger and small importers.  Inevitably, the dream of importing my wines on my own grew into reality as I became increasingly passionate about specific countries and styles of wines.
