Brett Taylor founded Essential Wine Services in 2017 after spending over fifteen years in the hospitality and fine wine world. With nearly a decade designing, curating and managing wine collections of all shapes and sizes, wine has taken him around the world – from visiting classic wine regions in Europe to conducting tastings for Fortune 500 companies at venues such as America’s Cup in Bermuda and the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. He holds the Advanced Level Sommelier certification with the Court of Master Sommeliers.
Essential’s mission is to provide all of the services necessary to assist you in acquiring and managing a wine collection that speaks to your personal needs and aesthetic. Essential is boutique in nature because personalized service of this caliber deserves nothing less than our full attention.
