| "In addition to being one of the most talented sommeliers in the country, Fred possesses a number of valuable skills that have contributed to the success of restaurants across the country. He can build a custom wine list, create killer cocktails, train staff and help increase profitability. His years of experience, trusted contacts, service style and thirst for new trends have made him a force in the industry." Laurent Tourondel, Owner/Chef – BLT Restaurant Group “It is one thing to know a great deal about wine, quite another to retain unbridled enthusiasm, and still another to have the gift to share both with others.” “From Fred's first class at Astor Center (Tasting Wine Like a Master: The Art of Blind Tasting) he has surprised and delighted with his uncanny gift for translating his acumen into useful, understandable and enjoyable information for the enthusiast.” “He has used his gift to grow his class offering to four, with no limits in sight. He is a simply stellar educator!” Andrew Fisher, Owner – Astor Center/Astor Wines “Fred is a consummate pro- organized, passionate, and customer centric. His knowledge and ownership of topical material coupled with an easy going, affable, and enthusiastic style in concert make for the perfect recipe for success. We’ve been delighted to work with Fred in several different and diverse endeavors.” Evan Goldstein MS, President and COO – Full Circle Wine Solutions “Fred Dexheimer has been instrumental in introducing the trade and media to small, family wineries that operate in little known parts of the world. . His acute awareness of remote and overlooked wine regions makes him a leader in promoting unheralded wines.” Andre Tamers, Owner – DeMaison Selections “Fred is one of the top cocktail minds in the country and has been a great help to the VeeV brand creating some of our best cocktail recipes. We always love to see what he will create next and with what fresh ingredient or juice! Fred is a tremendous asset for any brand.” Carter Reum, Founder/Owner – VeeV Acai Liqueur “We hired Fred to be our spokesperson for our launch of the Southwest France Wine Campaign and we couldn’t have been happier with his presentation style, knowledge and understanding of the region. He is easy to work with, down-to-earth yet informative, and his passion is clearly evident.” April Sack, Director of Public Relations – Sopexa USA “I have known Fred for ten years, and have learned to trust his judgment about wine and his palate implicitly. I consult with him whenever we compose our blends before bottling because his sense of what a wine should be is always spot on.” Robert Kamen, Screenwriter/Owner – Kamen Estate Wines “We needed someone that was experienced, informative and very motivated. That all came with Fred. I think in the near future when we think on who helped put Tannat on the map in the US we will think of Fred.” Julio Suarez, Founder/Owner – TasteVino Selections |
