A principal with a villa in Cap Ferrat, a chalet in Courchevel, an apartment in Monaco and a yacht in Port Vauban does not want four wine suppliers. Nor does the estate manager reconciling four sets of invoices. We supply households, one relationship, one standard, every property.

We were the staff

Onshore Cellars was founded by a Chief Stewardess and a Second Officer, the people who ordered wine for principals, chased late deliveries at 7pm, and carried the blame when a supplier substituted the wrong Champagne. That is why household staff find us easy: we answer on WhatsApp fast, confirm exact bottles in writing, flag problems before they become surprises, and never leave a PA or butler exposed in front of the principal.

One account, every property

Family office accounts run as one relationship with per-property delivery and invoicing: the villa on the Côte d'Azur, the chalet in the Alps, the town apartment, and the yacht, same list, same pricing, same contact. Same-day delivery on the Riviera, next-day across France, EU-wide beyond, and yacht provisioning worldwide through the service that built our name.

The cellar, run properly

We plan and stock estate cellars, keep the records, track drinking windows and replenish around the entertaining calendar, Easter in the Alps, August on the coast, the December house party. Where a property lacks cellar conditions, our climate-controlled storage holds the collection at €24 per case per year, insured up to €100,000, and feeds each house as needed.

Rare bottles, sourced and verified

Birth-year vintages for milestone birthdays, the missing verticals, the allocation wines, Pétrus, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Krug Clos d'Ambonnay, our sourcing service finds them and verifies condition before they are offered. First answer within one working day, no search fee.

Staff who serve with confidence

We run accredited WSET courses (Levels 1–3) for household teams at your property or our Antibes premises, plus practical coaching on decanting, glassware and cellar handling. The same programme trains the interior crews of 40–110m yachts; a household team that has done it serves, and buys, noticeably better.

Discretion as default

Ten years supplying the world's finest yachts has taught us how private households work. We do not name clients, we do not gossip, and our invoicing says exactly what the family office needs it to say, no more, no less.

Testimonials

I cannot recommend Onshore Cellars highly enough! Outstanding service, a wonderful team and a truly personal approach. Peter was absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond. An absolute pleasure to work with, and I look forward to working together again!

M/Y Spring Tide

"Onshore Cellars helped me on my first new build project putting together wines from around the world. They made the process simple and informative and left me with a happy owner!

We plan to use them in the future as the owner purchased extra wines which are now being stored in Onshore Cellars temperature controlled store."

Chief StewardessMotor Yacht Grace E

"Onshore Cellars professional and personalised service is a breath of fresh air in this industry. They continuously go the extra mile to help you out - whether it is with a last minute order and rushed delivery or helping you with food pairing and tasting notes for an important upcoming charter. Onshore Cellars go above and beyond any other wine supplier I have had experience with. I have no hesitation in recommending them and will continue to refer other colleagues in the industry to their services. Thanks Jess and Ed."

Chief StewardessMotor Yacht 84m

"I enjoyed working with Onshore Cellars to restock the wine on our yacht for the year. What I like most about working with them is that the communication is prompt and everything is customised to my needs in an instant. I would recommend Onshore cellars to anyone you cares a lot about professional advice and customer service. Thank you!"

Chief StewardessMotor Yacht IJE

"We've used Onshore Cellars for the past four charter seasons and they've never let us down. Last-minute requests, hard-to-find vintages, middle-of-the-night WhatsApp messages, they handle it all with a smile. The wine knowledge is second to none and our guests consistently comment on how impressive the wine selection is. That's all down to Jess and the team."

Chief Stewardess62m Sailing Yacht

"The WSET course I did with Onshore Cellars completely transformed my wine service on board. I went from guessing to confidently recommending wines to our owner and his guests. The course was tailored to yacht crew which made it so much more relevant than a standard wine course. Now I order all our wine through them too, the tasting notes and pairing suggestions they provide make my job so much easier."

2nd Stewardess45m Motor Yacht

"We switched to Onshore Cellars after years of frustration with our previous wine supplier. The difference is night and day. They actually listen to what our owner likes, remember his preferences, and proactively suggest new wines he might enjoy. The online ordering system with real-time stock is brilliant, no more placing orders only to be told something is out of stock. A truly professional outfit."

Family office FAQs

Can you supply multiple properties under one account?

Yes, that is the normal shape of a family office account. One relationship, one price list, separate delivery and invoicing per property, villa, chalet or yacht. The estate manager sees everything; each house simply receives what it needs.

Our principal's PA handles wine orders, how do you work with staff?

Perfectly happily: household staff are our home crowd. Our founders were superyacht crew, the people who order wine for principals, so we answer fast on WhatsApp and email, confirm exact bottles in writing, and never leave staff exposed by a substitution or a late delivery.

Can you manage the estate's cellar?

Yes. We plan and stock cellars, keep the records, flag drinking windows, and replenish automatically around your entertaining calendar. Where a property lacks proper cellar conditions, our climate-controlled storage near Antibes holds the collection at €24 per case per year, insured up to €100,000, and delivers to the house as needed.

Can you match what the principal drinks on the yacht?

Often we already know it, many of our family office relationships began on a yacht we supply. One list, one standard, the same bottles ashore and afloat. If we don't supply the yacht yet, send us the list and we'll mirror it.

Do you train household staff on wine service?

Yes, accredited WSET courses (Levels 1–3) delivered at your property or our Antibes premises, plus practical service coaching: decanting, glassware, cellar handling. We train superyacht interior teams to the same standard.
