History
The company was founded in 2013 by Vincent Morello and Eric Joubert.[1] The wine bottles were selected by the sommelier Nicolas Rebut. It is one of the first online wine subsrciption companies in Asia.[2]
In May 2019, The French Cellar announced through its Facebook page that operations ceased as of May 27th, and launching a process of voluntary liquidation. Deliveries had become irregular in the months before the closure, and some customers lost several hundred dollars in yearly subsrciptions paid upfront.[1]
The French Cellar was acquired by Wala Technology Pte Ltd in 2019 and became the Wala Club. [3]
Description
TheFrenchCellar was specialized in delivering French wines to homes in Asia.[1]
