The San Francisco Wine Exchange Information

The San Francisco Wine Exchange is the oldest independent wine marketing company based in the United States. Headquartered in San Francisco, the firm markets wines via its sales force of 5 regional employees and 8 brokers to a national network of over 100 wholesale distributors. SFWE remains the only independently-owned wine marketing organization that has survived past twenty years in an industry where buy-outs, acquisitions, and the sheer growth in the number of wineries have eliminated dozens of competitors. Our longevity is due to ongoing relationships and friendships with both the winery clients and the loyal national network of wholesalers, many of whom have been with the firm since its inception. SFWE elects to work exclusively with small, family-owned producers whose expertise translates the raw material, grapes, into outstanding wines. In fairness to each of the wineries, the company's portfolio limits itself to one producer within a specific appellation unless another's product line offers different varietals which do not conflict within that region. As the industry continues to grow with more wine-producing regions emerging while existing wineries are simultaneously learning what grapes grow best in their specific appellations and sub-regions, SFWE continues to selectively add new clients who share its vision and love of wine. Our portfolio includes Terra Valentine (CA), Jason Stephens Winery (CA), Exprience Wines (CA), Mc Cay Cellars (CA), City Limits (WA), Two Vintners (WA), Wautoma Wines (WA), Andeluna Cellars (ARG), De Bortoli Wines (AU), among other brands.
