Vintellect was founded in 2004 by Clare Young, formerly a director of Cockburn & Campbell Limited, the subsidiary wine company of Young and Co Brewery in London.

In this capacity Clare was responsible for implementing dynamic strategies to radically improve wine sales throughout the Young’s estate. The results were met with widespread acclaim since they out-performed the market year in and year out.

For Cockburn & Campbell’s corporate and private clients Clare was also responsible for designing and hosting wine tasting events including; food and wine appreciation dinners, original team wine challenges and tours of French and Spanish vineyards.

Now with this experience and proven capability Clare and her dynamic team, headed by wine trainer Emma Kershaw, help on-trade businesses increase their wine sales and design highly entertaining wine themed events for both corporate and private clients.
