EWGA WINES

Meet The Team

who are we?

EWGA Wines is a team made up of an enthusiastic group of people who all work hard to ensure that the wines we sell are of great quality, look good and are in the right place at the right time. Many of our team members have worked for the business for over 10 years and whilst a passion for wine isn’t a requirement of the job, most of the team have it. Regular meetings, weekends away and product tastings help to cement the loyal team and ensure we are happy to help our customers!

Adrian Moeckell EWGA Managing Director

ADRIAN MOECKELL

Managing Director

Adrian took over the business from his parents in the 1990’s. His drive and enthusiasm for wine and business have meant that the company has gone from being a regional wine company to a national wine wholesaler and importer.

Managing the business for over 30 years, he works hard to maintain an exciting and uncompromising range of wines from around the world. He loves Burgundy and other French regions but he ensures there are plenty of other wine regions represented alongside the classics.
