Description
About Joseph Cattin
The Cattin family established in Alsace in 1720 and immediately started to grow vines. Today the family (Jacques Cattin Sr, Jacques Cattin Jr and Jean-Marie Cattin) owns a bit more than 60ha of vines; and are one of the largest family-owned wineries in Alsace.
Because the vineyards lie on the foothills of the Vosges, the altitude of the plots varies from 200 to 400m. Most of them face the south-east and thus get maximum sunlight, which makes the grapes incomparably ripe and complex.
Bacchus Wine Merchant is a well-known, respected, family-owned wine distribution company established in 2001 by Jo Newton who is still the Managing Director today.
Over the past 15 Years our tremendous growth has allowed us to expand our distribution into Queensland and Victoria. From humble beginnings, Jo ran the company from her spare bedroom in Cremorne, to now, with over 15 employees in 3 states.
Bacchus Wine Merchant prides itself on exceptional customer service and close relationships with our wineries, making Bacchus a successful and unique Distribution Company in a busy market.
