CMK Consulting was founded due to a request on the part of many producers to assist them in the development of their International Markets.
The objective of the Consultation is to work with each estate individually as it forges its course across the globe.
Our friend Kohei Morita of Iida Co once said: “Our relationship is an exchange of hands”, thus an exchange of friendships.
CMK Consulting is metaphorically the creation of a brilliantly coloured tapestry of wines, flavours, memories and the wonderful people behind them.
