RIVIERA CELLARS, WHO ARE WE?<\/p>\n\t<\/div> \n\t

\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

The love of wine<\/strong> and the desire to share our passion<\/strong> are the driving forces\/key drivers behind our family business Riviera Cellars.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A passion transmitted and shared by a father to his daughter and the pleasure of being able, day after day, to highlight our common values and our know-how with the aim of satisfying our customers and making you discover exceptional wines: this is what defines Riviera Cellars!<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t

\n\t\t

THE RIVIERA CELLARS ADVENTURE<\/p>\n\t<\/div> \n\t

\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t

After a career in the restaurant business across the Channel in the 1980s-1990s and experience as a wine merchant in France, it was the birth of Monte Carlo Wines, a professional wine cellar located in the Principality of Monaco and inaugurated by Prince Albert, that launched the itinerary into the world of wine.<\/p>\n

In 2009, and quite naturally, a wine sales company specialising in the delivery and chartering of yachts was created.
\n2010 saw the award of the famous WSET (Wine and Spirit Education Trust) in England, followed in 2013 by the sommelier diploma in France.<\/p>\n

In 2020, the company became truly family-owned thanks to the love of wine shared by a daughter and her father. Training with Franck Thomas led to the title of Sommelier Caviste Ambassadrice en Gastronomie, followed by three certifications at WSET<\/a> and it is a chosen reconversion in the world of wine that is taking shape.<\/p>\n

Together and driven by the same passion for wine and high quality service, father and daughter seized the opportunity to buy the company NHB Riviera which then became Riviera Cellars and which today dedicates its expertise to the service of enthusiasts, amateurs and initiates in the world of wine all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t
