James Majer
General Manager – Incantina
James started out in the hospitality industry at an early age, originally behind the scenes doing accounting and payroll for a well known Perth bar. 19 years down the track and James has gained vast experience in all areas of hospitality from venue management, retail, as well as wholesaling and importing. James’ passion for fine wine was developed over a period of 8 years managing Perth’s premier wine store ‘Steves Fine Wine’ in Nedlands, where he developed a love of European wines, particularly white Burgundy, and Australia’s ‘alternate’ varietals.
James has also written and co-written a number of award winning wine lists, with recognition by both the Australian Hotels Association & Gourmet Traveler. With outstanding knowledge of both food and wine matching, as well as sourcing wines, James is able to tailor wine lists to individual restaurants needs.

Michael Kelly
Account Manager
Mick is our resident marketing and sales guru. His extensive experience in both the retail and wholesale aspects of the industry has been developed through being in the wine trade since 1991. This all came about after developing a passion for fine Bordeaux and Burgundy (thanks to a kind relative with an exquisite cellar!).
He says “With a bent for fine boned, cool climate wines, the Castelli range is right up my alley and just quietly, it doesn’t hurt that the wines are damned good value too! I can’t wait to see the upcoming reserve wines from these guys.”
