Inside Norway's Fine Wine Market: In Conversation with Arnt Egil Nordlien

How is the secondary market organized in Norway? And why are Fine Wines so much cheaper there? And how long do people have to queue to buy a bottle of Domaine de la Romanee-Conti?   In this episode, host Pauline Vicard sits down with Arnt Egil Nordlien, Product Manager of Fine Wine & Auctions at Vinmonopolet in Norway. Together they discuss the in’s and out’s of a very unique distribution system. How does Arnt choose what to buy at En Primeur week each year, and how are the wines imported? How does the Vinmonopolet system work? How are Fine Wines sold and what is the margin system?   Tune in to learn more and of course do not forget to head over to the Inside La Place de Bordeaux series, where Pauline initially sought out Arnt to delve into the fascinating world of La Place de Bordeaux, a wine system shrouded in mystery, even to many people who work in fine wine.   Vinmonopolet is Norway’s state control alcohol distribution platform, and Arnt Egil Nordlien personally selects Fine Wines to be distributed to 12 locations throughout Norway.
