Cellarworld Argentina has now passed on the goodwill of its business to Duncan Killiner and Rosaura Etcheverry Killiner. Killiner's new company is Jelu Estates, who are very successfully exporting and growing the brands that they worked so hard to create for CWA in the past. Enquiries should be addressed to info@jeluestate.com
Raised in rural New Zealand (100 km from Wellington) by Irish immigrants, Duncan grew up on the family farm earning his pocket money working in the family chicken business. After a night job working in a restaurant Duncan developed an interest in wine. Thus when he moved on to University he started a wine appreciation club with a friend, which was such a success he decided to change his career and move into the wine business.
Over 50 vintages later Duncan has worked with clients all over the world. He is, with his wife Rosaura, based in Mendoza, Argentina.
Liz is a Master of Wine with 30 years' experience in the UK industry, much of it buying for a major supermarket group.
Liz's assets include her vast range of contacts throughout the wine world. She deals with a number of CWI clients, including some that she has introduced, usually on their downstream QA, bottling, marketing and sales requirements.
