Show Notes

It’s time to do a deep dive into wine export markets! Joris Snelten, CEO of Delta Wines, knows everything about the Netherlands—Delta Wines is not just a major wine importer and distributor that handles more than 80 million bottles, it also has a presence in Belgium, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Finland.

Joris talks about how he got into wine, and the journey of a European wine professional. He also explains how the Dutch wine market works from supermarkets and wine shops to online retailers—and reveals that Holland is moving from a beer and spirits market to a wine one.

After touring the Netherlands, the conversation moves into Belgium, Eastern Europe and the Nordic monopoly markets.
