This is not just a story of wine, this is a story about family
Founded in 1978 by Yale Sager, Winesellers began as a one-man operation importing and selling wines primarily in the Midwest. Over the last four decades, Winesellers has evolved into a globally recognized importer and marketer of family-owned wineries and brands produced in both well-known and unique regions from around the world. The Sager family is proud of their enduring relationships with their wholesalers and suppliers, some of whom have been a part of the Winesellers portfolio from the very beginning.
