About Eldon Larson

With over thirty years in the wine industry, I have a rich background that includes owning Wine Experience & World Cellar and leading in supplier and distribution roles. My passion for wine culminated in transforming my business in Aurora, CO, where I created a unique culinary experience paired with an extensive wine program. Over sixteen years, I hosted more than 500 events featuring esteemed figures such as Hubert Trimbach, Roberto Stucchi Prinetti, and Francesco Mazzei. A key achievement was integrating the World Cellar fine wine shop into our restaurant, setting us apart in Colorado's market.Navigating economic challenges, including the recession and the COVID-19 pandemic, I was honored with the 2020 City of Aurora Business Recognition Award for innovating the takeout experience into fine dining. Prior to my entrepreneurial journey, I excelled in leadership positions within a major wine distributor, where I built strong relationships with suppliers and customers, managed a large team, and consistently exceeded sales targets. My experience also includes overseeing a twelve-state region for a Santa Barbara winery and serving as Colorado State Manager for a leading wine company.I am excited to bring my industry knowledge, strategic insight, and proven track record of driving revenue to a thriving business team. I look forward to discussing how my skills can align with organizational goals.
