About The Wine Umbrella
Founded in 2005, The Wine Umbrella can be summed up in three little words: inform, promote, inspire. Working with the wine industry, we take these three words and make them the focus of every initiative that our company undertakes. From regional promotions to product launches, from consumer events to trade seminars, from brochure writing to market development, we infuse these unique themes into everything that we do, always aiming to take a creative approach to our projects and meet client objectives in unique and exciting ways.
Who we are:
The Wine Umbrella is a collection of professionals who leverage each other’s strengths to promote the enjoyment of great wines in Western Canada.
Mireille Sauvé leads the pack of pedigreed wine pros, her background being that of a Sommelier, wine writer and educator with an unstoppable thirst to bring delicious wines to the masses.
Vancouver’s most established wine industry consulting firm, The Wine Umbrella works with all members of Western Canada’s industry to increase wine appreciation through information, promotion and inspiration. It’s what we do: INFORM. PROMOTE. INSPIRE.
Please feel free to contact us should you have any questions or wish to discuss your unique wine-related request.
