About VJ
When VJ is not engaged in cherished quality time with her twins and husband Vishal, she is passionately pouring her heart into expanding her burgeoning online marketplace, Kascadia Wine Merchants. As a proud Vancouverite, VJ has long been enamored with the world-class wine production of her home province's Okanagan Valley. It wasn't until she made the move to California in 2014, however, that she had a true epiphany - an inspired vision to share the hidden wine gems of her native Canada with the broader international market. Today, her growing venture proudly showcases Canadian and US wines in over 40 states nationwide. "It's time to change the narrative to - North American wine,"
Why North America
There's a world of North American wine waiting to be explored. No longer do we need to view US and European labels as mutually exclusive options.
The future looks bright, as more sippers branch out beyond the Old World. The wine renaissance is here, and it spans from Napa to Niagara! - VJ Gandhi
