Meet Kermit Lynch: Wine Importer for 40 Years

When Kermit Lynch first started out, he imported wines from all over the world.  Now, he focuses on small, family-owned estates in Italy and France.

As Mr. Lynch says:
"You can't really dig too deeply if you try to cover the world."
He estimates that he imports wines from 150 producers, and is always looking for more. For every 100 producers he visits, Mr. Lynch might only add a single one to his portfolio.

Read more about Kermit Lynch here and learn about a book he wrote, Adventures on the Wine Route (as shown above), that is considered one of the best on the wine business.
