Jeremy Sutton has worked for importer Kysela Pere et Fils, LTD. for a little over three years. He has ten years experience in the wine business including both restaurant and retail work, and this lucky career path has provided him with extensive travel in France, Italy, Chile, Argentina and Oregon wine country. While his passion lies with the wines of southern France, Jeremy loves and appreciates wine in all its forms, origins and uses. He works to provide the thirsty, curious public with wines that both stay true to their indigenous character and are simply delicious to drink, from $10 to $100. There is nothing he enjoys more than providing people with a good bottle of juice.
Kysela Importers are the 2011 Wine Enthusiast’s Importer of the Year!
Robert M. Parker, Jr.’s THE WINE ADVOCATE, Issue 105 had this to say about Kysela Importers: “Fran Kysela, unlike most Americans, was born into a family that consumed and appreciated fine wine. One of the youngest specialty importers, Kysela began his career as the national sales manager for the import arm of Kermit Lynch’s sprawling wine business. Subsequently, he worked briefly for another high quality importer, Weygandt-Metzler in Unionville, Pennsylvania. Inevitably, Kysela founded his own firm, dedicated to discovering high quality top estates in France and Italy [and Portugal].
Kysela’s offerings all tend to be extremely pure, ripe, fruity wines…in short, faithful reflections of their appellations. He is not an aggressive interventionalistic importer à la Robert Kacher (or to a lesser extent, Neal Rosenthal, Eric Salomon, or Peter Weygandt), but neither does he permit his producers to take a laissez-faire approach to their work. In a few short years Kysela has emerged as one of the finest palates and selectors of top wine, whether it be an inexpensive Muscadet or a top of the line Burgundy.”
