Lillian Lim
As a wine buyer, sommelier, teacher and consultant, my goal is to create a comfortable, enjoyable, and accessible environment for you to experience and learn about wine. I strive to find undiscovered gems, looking for wines that are first and foremost delicious, unique in the marketplace, feature a quality level that far exceeds their price point, and have an intriguing story behind them.
My journey began as a wine enthusiast. Tasting some unforgettable wines from Burgundy forever changed my wine world and inspired me to make the transition into a second career from software engineer to wine professional. I devoted myself to studying different wine regions and grape varieties. Through my wine studies, I am always looking to taste wines from obscure wine varieties from wine regions of the far corners of the wine world.
