Your Wine. Your Story. Our Global Connection.
Exploring international opportunities for Victorian wineries.
Lets Explore What’s Possible
Coastal Victorian Wine Export is developing relationships with selected Victorian wineries interested in exploring international markets.
Our initial focus is on premium and boutique producers from Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast. We are initially focused on exploring opportunities in the United States, while remaining open to suitable international markets.
We are interested in wineries with distinctive wines, a strong regional identity and an interest in developing long-term export opportunities.
How We Aim to Work With Wineries
Market Development
We aim to identify suitable opportunities for selected Victorian wines in international markets, beginning with the United States.
Trade Relationships
We aim to develop connections with relevant international importers, distributors, retailers, restaurants and other wine professionals.
Export Coordination
We intend to work alongside wineries and appropriate freight, customs, export and import service providers to help coordinate the requirements of the export process.
Portfolio Development
We are developing a focused portfolio of wines selected for their quality, regional identity and potential suitability for the markets we target.
Producer Storytelling
We believe the story behind a wine matters. We want to communicate each winery's story, its region and the people behind its wines accurately and professionally.
Long-Term Partnerships
We aim to build transparent relationships based on clear communication, agreed commercial terms and shared expectations.
Who We Would Like to Hear From
We welcome conversations with Victorian wineries that share our commitment to quality, regional identity and exploring new opportunities.
We would love to hear from wineries that:
Produce premium or boutique wines.
Have a strong connection to their region.
Value quality and consistency.
Are interested in exploring international markets.
Have a producer story they want to share.
Are open to discussing long-term export opportunities.
How the Process Works
Every winery and every export opportunity is different. We take a considered approach to understanding your wines, discussing potential markets and exploring whether a partnership is the right fit.
1. Initial Conversation
We learn about your winery, your wines, your story and your goals for exploring international markets.
2. Winery and Portfolio Review
We discuss your wine range, production capacity, market positioning and readiness for export opportunities.
3. Market Discussion
We explore potential international markets and consider whether there may be a suitable commercial opportunity for your wines.
4. Partnership Discussion
If there is a good fit, we discuss possible representation, responsibilities and commercial arrangements.
5. Trade Development
Where appropriate, we explore opportunities to introduce your wines to relevant international importers, distributors and other trade contacts.
6. Export Preparation
If an opportunity progresses, we work with your winery and suitable service providers to confirm the requirements for the proposed shipment.
7. Ongoing Development
Where a partnership proceeds, we maintain communication, review progress and explore further opportunities as the relationship develops.
