What they had to say…

We’re overwhelmed at the flood of positive words that has come in post Real Wine Fair 2017. Here is a compilation of some of our favourites:

By Mail…

Just a quick message to say thank you for hosting such a fantastic tasting. It was amazing and wish I could have come back for the second day.

The fair was great, especially the second day, so many good people had so many good questions. I loved it. Thanks a lot for the invitation!

real wine – real event – real friends – real show – real people – real cool

Thanks to give us the opportunity to present a small winery like ours at this great place in London with Les Caves. Merci!! From the heart.

Erich and Michael Andert, Andert-Wein ~ Producers in Burgenland

Amazed once again with the power of Real Wine Fair. There is no such place with so many interesting growers, costumers and diversity!!! Congrats for the brilliant organization, I felt very comfortable all the time!

Pedro Marques ~ Winemaker in Lisbon, Portugal

It was so fascinating and the vibe was so positive over those two days!

It was a great experience for me, I met good people and get some opportunities in UK and few other countries. Thank you for your invitation and for allowing me those great moments.

Antonio Madeira ~ wine grower in Dao

We love what we do, we love our international community of fellow winemakers, and we love sharing our wines with all of you. Thank you Doug Wregg and everyone at Les Caves de Pyrene for bringing us all together in London!

Martha Stoumen ~ Martha Stoumen Wines, California

On behalf of the Mas de Daumas Gassac’s team and the Guibert family (and probably our new president Emanuel Macron as well!!!) un “Grand Merci” for another magnificent Real Wine Fair!!!

At a time when standardization seems to be the main trend, it is not only refreshing but also invigorating  to see that there are wines, food and most importantly people who remain not only authentic but also dedicated to keep this world as diverse and as creative as possible!

The Real Wine Fair success is a true tribute to this dedication and the amazing work you are all accomplishing.

Samuel Guibert ~ owner Mas de Daumas Gassac, Languedoc

Phenomenal event as always.  I can’t say enough how much I enjoy spending time with your crew – what a fantastic bunch.  You guys continue to inspire us to think bigger, and find more ways to be receptive to all things that will help us be better.

John House ~ Ovum Wines, Oregon

Thanks to you and the whole team. It was a great fair.

Sepp Muster ~ Weingut Muster, Styria

Thanks once again for a wonderful event. As always, we were packed and had amazing feedback.

Craig Hawkins ~ Testalonga Wines, Swartland, South Africa

Another great Real Wine Fair over the weekend. Well done …everyone involved – and the producers of course.

Ed Thaw ~ Ellory Restaurant

We all had a blast and were very impressed with the high level of organisation.

Roland Szimeiszter ~ Rawland Wines

Thank you SO much for the great two days at RWF.  It was so enjoyable and hugely productive for us.  We were overwhelmed with the interest in our wines and our project.  People were so positive about both.  It was just such a fantastic opportunity for us – we can’t thank you enough.

Sarah Vaughan-Roberts ~ Forty Hall Vineyard, Enfield

That was absolutely a fantastic visit.  We can’t tell you how much we love London.  It’s becoming a special place for us.  The response we got from the wines was amazing, as well.

Scott Frank, Bow & Arrow

It is both an honor and a pleasure to be a part of what you’ve created; I can’t thank you enough. I look forward to raising a glass with you all again soon!

Matthew Rorick – Forlorn Hope

Thank you again for such a wonderful event. You and your team are incredible! 

Annedria Beckham – Beckham Estate

Thank you so much for putting on such an incredibly memorable fair. Les Caves is really an amazing company–the work that went into the fair and real wine month in general is truly impressive. I had such a wonderful time! And I could definitely feel a palpable sense of community.
