About US
Our Wine Selections
Value-Added Services
HappyVines.com publishes a wine-related website dedicated to wine-consumers in ASEAN & the region. Our website on wine is, perhaps, the first & the most updated in the region and went live in early 1997. For a regional site, we receive 30,000 hits/month, on average.
HappyVines.com
offer reviews of wines & wine events, local & selected news
reports, wine event announcements, an active Wine Mart section. Wine
& accessories distribution, via a simple online ordering system,
is also offered. Deliveries are available to Singapore, Malaysia &
selectively to Thailand. HappyVines.com also acts as a portal to
other partner websites offering more wine, food and other lifestyle
products.
The person
behind HappyVines.com is Remie Law, who recognised the
potential of quality wine in Asia since the early 1990s. He
established one of the first wine specialist companies in Singapore
with a select portfolio from New Zealand, Australian, Spanish and
Italian producers. Leading the growing pack of wine specialist
distributors with regular wine tastings and wine dinner events,
HappyVines helped establish a firm wine consuming Singapore with
tastes for both New World and Old World wines. Remie Law enjoys
wines, usually in an informal setting, eschewing the more “high
brow” approach, very evident in the early 1990s.
He is
willing to taste & give due credit to wines at all price brackets
and styles, so long they are well made and with passion for the vine.
He was at the forefront, assessing the booming range of wines in a
market that saw annual growth rates of about 30% through the late
1990s and into the new millennium.
Two Singapore International
Wine Challenges were held in 1998 & 2000, in collaboration with
Mr. Robert Joseph of WINE magazine. Remie Law was present as a junior
judge at both events.
Early on, Remie Law recognised the
challenge to wines posed by Asian spices in Asian cuisine. As a
fellow Asian, he was well-qualified to experiment & draw up the
“rules of engagement” between wine & wine styles
being drunk in harmony with Asian cuisine from an Asian perspective.
In
2002, he discussed this difficult subject, as lead speaker, at two
fully-attended seminars for regional Food & Beverage
professionals during the Food & Hotel Asia (Singapore)
exhibition.
In 2004, he had the honour to join the panel of
Jurors at the Concorso Enologico Internazionale (International Wine
Competition) at VinItaly 2004.
Remie Law has just
accepted an invitation to join the panel of Jurors, again for the
14th Concorso Enologico Internazionale (International Wine
Competition) for VinItaly 2006.
Remie Law conducts
formal 2-day Wine Courses and Wine Appreciation sessions for
Corporations & ad-hoc groups, throughout the year. He brings a
certain down-to-earth but passionate approach to wine during these
sessions & in his writings.
Remie
Law is expanding into the region's upcoming wine markets like India.
In Hyderabad, he has offered advice to the Hyderabad Wine Club on the
conduct of your nascent Wine Dinner events. He has also
shadow-written, in collaboration with the Club's President, several
wine-related articles that were published in The Times of India's
Hyderabad edition.
In addition to India, he is currently
looking into opportunities in other regional emerging wine markets,
including Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Indochina.
