Thumbnail Sketch of Kysela Père et Fils, LTD.
1. Founded in March of 1994, Kysela Père et Fils, LTD. is solely owned
by Fran Kysela, no investors, no banks, no partners.
2. We work directly with producers in these countries:
- France
- Spain
- Italy
- Australia
- New Zealand
- Portugal
- Germany
- USA
- Argentina
- Austria
3. Gross sales of 250,000 cases - 9 liter size cases. Long term goal of
300,000
cases.
4. Wine Style: Fruit driven, true to type, not over oaked.
5. Motto: Value, bang for the buck. Any loser can find good wine that is
expensive. It takes talent to find wines that "over deliver".
6. We believe wine is a beverage of pleasure. One doesn't need a Ph.D. to
drink wine, nor does one have to suffer while drinking wine. Hedonism in
wine is a good thing.
7. Wine needs to be properly shipped and stored under refrigerated
conditions.
8. Quality wine is about fresh flavors, good acidity, length of finish
and balance.
9.We purchase finished wines. Buying by barrel sample, and not by
finished wine, can lead to major disappointments for the importer and his
clients.
