FOR TRAVEL ADVISORS
The Wine and Spirits Category Specialist
Private access for your clients. Clients for your agency.
Two Ways to Work with Us
For Your Clients
Your client wants the cellar the public never sees. We call the owner directly and build the visit around your client, from a single day to a full week, anywhere in the wine and spirits world. We only work through you. They move your clients. We open the doors.
As a Regional Partner
We work with country clubs, private wine clubs, specialty retailers, restaurants and people who lead their own groups in your market. When their members want a trip built around wine and a region, we build it and bring it to you. Together we work out the hotels, the transport and the culture around the wine. You book it and keep every commission. The client is yours on this trip and every trip after.
One Partner. Every Region.
Your advisors field these requests constantly. A week in Burgundy. A day in Champagne off a business trip. A sommelier for an anniversary dinner. A rare bottle sourced. Each one normally means vetting and trusting a different local operator in a different region.
Vineyard Confidential is the one partner who handles all of it. We are a category specialist, defined by a single specialty rather than a single region. Wine and spirits, everywhere your clients go. One point of contact, one standard, every request and every advisor in your firm.
The Access Difference
Most wine and spirits experiences disappoint for the same reason. They deliver the estates that take public bookings, the tasting room and the standard tour.
We work with small family-owned estates, most of which are not open to the public. Where an estate does receive visitors, your client gets what the tour never sees. The principal, the library, the cellar. These are the visits only a long-term trade buyer can arrange. This is access built on 25 years of relationships, not a booking anyone can place.
We Also Bring You Clients
Through our relationships with country clubs, private wine clubs, specialty retailers and restaurants, we introduce pre-qualified clients who already travel. We build them a custom wine trip in the region they want and hand it to you with the itinerary already built.
You take the lodging, the transport and the payment. The client is yours, on this trip and on every trip after.
Enrich a Trip You Have Already Sold
Your advisors do not need a wine request to use us. They use us to make a trip they already sold into a trip the client talks about for a decade.
Paris for an anniversary. Add an overnight in Champagne with two houses.
The Grand Prix at Monza. Add two days in Barolo.
The French Open and the Loire. A night at the Vienna Opera and a day in the Kamptal. Niseko and the Japanese whisky distilleries. The client never asked for a wine trip. Your advisor is the one who thought of it.
Golf in Scotland. Add a day at the Distilleries
