Purveyors of Wine, Inc.

Purveyors of Wine specializes in supplying fine wines from small, family-owned wine producers around the world, to wine retailers and restaurants in Idaho, Wyoming, and Utah.

The wineries we represent are passionate conservators of their land, observing sustainable farming and wine-making practices. Many are "certified-organic" grape growers, and several have qualified as "Biodynamic."

The importance of "Terroir"

Each wine grape varietal, such as Cabarnet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, and Tempranillo exhibits distinctly different character, based on where it is grown. Differences in climate, elevation, direction of exposure, slope of the land, seasonal winds, soil composition, and traditional local wine making traditions make for markedly different-tasting wines from the same grape varietal, produced in different wine-growing regions.

POW! is working with wine industry and academic partners to build the first searchable worldwide GIS map tool to identify the best growing conditions for each wine grape varietal.

Why is small, artisan wine production important to preserving the differences of terroir?

You can taste the differences in wine from different, identifiable vineyards. Small, artisan, family-owned wine producers often have a few special vineyards from which they produce their best wines. They proudly label their best wines with the vineyard names from which their best batches of grapes are sourced. This contrasts with industrial scale of production that is associated with so-called "scaleable" brands of wine, named after horses, cars, bicycles, and anything else imaginable because the wines come from dozens of differing sources, based on what juice is available at the best price. As sales of "scaleable brand" wines grow, the original sources of grapes that were the foundation of the wine's reputation are outgrown, and it takes highly-skilled wine makers to maintain the same taste profile as more and more grapes come from new sources.

Get to know your wine makers and importers, and enjoy their hospitality.

Purveyors of Wine invites the wine makers and importers it represents to make frequent visits to meet our customers. We try to raise local interest in these special wines by organizing wine-pairing dinners, special tastings with the wine maker, and other events. Many of our wine makers are proud to show you their vineyards and wineries when you visit France, Italy, Spain, Oregon, California, Washington, etc. and enjoy their local hospitality and learn more about how their wines are made.
