Another long-time standing member of the red+white family, Beth has ruled the retail roost for over 12 years, making sure our delicious drops are readily accessible to the greater Auckland region for your drinking pleasure.

When the weekend beckons, Beth can be seen brunching at the newest spots around Auckland with hubby Mario, walking Takapuna beach with her girls, or at home preparing a feast fit for a Sunday long lunch, with some carefully chosen vino to compliment the spread.

Apparently she is quite adept at synchronised swimming, and although we’re yet to witness a demonstration in the flesh, we have no need to doubt this is one of the many things in her box of tricks.

John has been Blair’s wingman since the inception of Cellar Ltd, the then-based Wellington company that grew from humble beginnings.

Fast forward to the present and there are not many people in the industry that Johnny hasn’t wooed with our quality offerings. His primary customer base is quality Auckland on-premise and one of his great successes has been positioning and protecting our brands in key Auckland and Northland accounts.

While during work hours you may well bump into him enjoying a glass with a customer, outside of the work realm he’s out of sight – gardening (with an enviable vege patch that would impress the greenest of thumbs) entertaining & relaxing, always to a soundtrack of modern electronic music.

Our little ray of sunshine from sunny Nelson, Aimee has a background in accounting and marketing, making her a perfect new addition to our sales team.

Known for her infectious laughter and positive spirit, she’s excited to be part of a dynamic team that shares her passion for wine and fun!

She loves Pilates, dining with friends, and heading back to Nelson in the summer for a spot of boating.

In addition to looking after some of our valued Auckland customers, she leads our social media presence with her typical enthusiasm and positivity.

Originally from Taiwan, Joe is a newer addition to the team, but has quickly made his presence felt with his big personality and infectious enthusiasm.

In a past life Joe was a qualified engineer. With an analytical mind he makes sure that the details don’t get lost amongst the noise.

He’s not just brains and charisma though. Alongside his eye for detail, Joe also has an eye for the finer things. In addition to a serious wine collection he has:
– a sneaker collection (100’s of pairs)
– a very respectable watch collection (50 pieces)
– and a vinyl collection to rival Real Groovy (over 6000 records)
