Vinfolio's new Personal cellar manager service

Last week, Vinfolio issued a press release announcing our new Personal cellar manager service which enables you to hire a one of our wine experts to manage your wine collection on a "fractional" basis (a fixed number of days per month).

Why we launched the service

This service is a logical extension of our inventorying services and VinCellar software to enable busy wine collectors get the most out of their collection.  Many people with larger wine collections don't have the time to manage them properly.  Your personal cellar manager is at your disposal to perform whatever wine-related task you desire, for example:

  • Visiting your home anywhere in the country to reorganize your cellar
  • Creating reports on your cellar holdings
  • Generating recommendations on which wines to cull for sale or to buy from new releases
  • Providing pairings and recommendations for entertaining

We're running an introductory special on pricing through March 31, 2008.  Check out the fee schedule and call to learn more.

P.S.    Image above is a Paul Wyatt-designed cellar.

How does this service differ from Vinfolio's Advisory service (besides the price)? Also, why would I choose Vinfolio over the numerous other companies offering the same service at a much cheaper rate?

If you mean our Collection-Building service, that's purely about providing wine advice to support your buying decisions and requires purchases to be made through us. The services from a Personal Cellar Manager are much broader as explained in the description of the service on our site. In addition, to the extent that you utilize a Personal Cellar manager to assist with wine purchases, they may or may not be made from Vinfolio.

With regard to others offering the "same service", who do you have in mind? Most people who try to provide these services are 1-2 person businesses, offer a less complete service, and rates are comparable.
