Thanks to you all.

I am working on the website which will have a detail about wines and tapas. The problem is most of the wine traders are approaching me to sell their wines. I have now more than 150 varieties and looking forward for 350 varieties by next 2 months. It has picked up and gradually becoming the wine hub.

Eminitrader: I started learning about wine in the year 1998 while studying hotel management. I joined the exclusive wine club at school and then followed it for 3 years. Later i traveled to the Bourgogone region of france known as burgundy and stayed in a small family vineyard with recoginsation from my wine sommelier guru. There i spend 3 months working in vineyard. There is where i learn the secret and have build the palate. Since then i have been always working closely with wine. Infact one of the job in hong kong was wine sommelier for french haut cuisine called la Terrasse, working as maitre de hotel and operation manager closely with wine supplier has helped me. My acheivement was 2nd runner up in inter hotel school blind testing in swiss. I guess i trust my nose and palate.
Californian Wine are very less in Nepal, Infact there is only one Zinfindal so far i have seen. Though Last time i managed to buy whole stock of Abbey Freemark Cab Sab and Merlot vintage of 1987. There thought wine is bad and was selling for NRS 300 rupees per bottle. Other one is La Roy from france, same story selling for NRS 800 Rupees and selling for buy one get one free. They missed the point and i have most of the market stock now.
You will be surprised to see such a good vintage plus that smell of eucalyptus is definelty a Californian good sign.
