"NEW YORK STATE: Beyond the obvious associations of Riesling with the Finger Lakes and Merlot with Long Island, my explorations and notes demonstrate that, both with respect to what vines will succeed and with what degree of success as measured by world class standards, Baby you ain't seen nothin' yet. American wine merchants should seriously consider adding the excellent values offered by a Paumanok to their commercial mix, thus offering a wide range of consumers a distinctive alternative to any other wines in today's crowded marketplace." - David Schildknecht, Robert Parker.com, The Wine Advocate (6/30/2006)

"They are border crossers, quietly arriving in everlarger numbers, yet hardly noticed. I'm talking wines here, not people, and the border in question is northern. And the migrants are the increasingly worthy wines of Canada. A top tier sampling of these wines, red and white, dry and sweet, accompanied a recent dinner at the Modern." - Peter Hellman, Urban Vintage, New York Sun, Wednesday, July 5, 2006

"Long available only in Ontario, Malivoire wines are just beginning to appear in the U.S., thanks to the New York-based importer Bouquet du Vin, which represents it in New York, New Jersey and Florida; it's also available in Washington, D. C. and Pennsylvania. Soon, I'll report on a number of other Malivoire wines ...stay tuned! I'm eager to help spread the world about Canadian wines in general and Malivoire in particular" " - Robin Garr of Wine Lovers Page.com, Friday, November 11, 2005

"If Bouquet du Vin were the subject of an animal fable, it would demonstrate that, by displaying agility and a nose sensitized to worthy wines overlooked by others, it is possible for a mouse to survive, even thrive, under the nose of lions. While Bouquet du Vin's sales volume is still miniscule compared to the giant importer-distributors, it is growing rapidly and its wines are starting to appear in the right places." - Peter Hellman, Urban Vintage, New York Sun, Wednesday, April 20, 2005

"From what I hear, Bouquet du Vin is the top Canadian Wine Exporter in the USA! Way to go." - Walter Sendzik, Publisher Vine Magazine, A Division of Osprey Media Group, December 13, 2005

I have received a lot of positive feedback and compliments on the event. Thank you again for introducing us to the wonderful wines you bring into the US. You had some amazing insights and advice. " - Magdalena Spirydowicz, WCR, Womens Chefs and Restaurateurs, June 15th 2005 FCI, NY

"We were guests last night of Pamela Wallin, the Consul General of Canada at an exquisite tasting of some of Canada's best foods, wines and cooking held in the private room of Eleven Madison Park in NYC. The wines were equally impressive. It was also a pleasure to meet Amy Meyer, whose company Bouquet du Vin is introducing exceptional Canadian wines to the New York area and beyond." - Food, Wine and Restaurant Blog of Andrew Dornenburg and Karen Page - 2005, the husband and wife author team behind the 1996 James Beard Award winning book, BECOMING A CHEF

"Meyer is one of the very few importers in the United States focusing on Canadian wine. She's also one of a very few women who have ventured into the wine-importing business. Bouquet du Vin, an up-start importing business based in Bergen County, offers reassuring evidence that the international vine has yet to be picked clean." - T.J. Foderaro - The Star Ledger, Wednesday August 18, 2004

"Amy Meyer came to wine as a second career and has made a stir blazing new trails. She has many great wines in her portfolio, but of particuliar note are the extremely high quality Canadian wines, especially Canadian Ice Wines." - The Restaurant Guys Radio Show, March 14, 2005
