We are delighted to welcome a new partner to our Minneapolis inbound marketing agency. Haskell’s, a leading Minnesota wine shop and family-owned Minnesota business, joins our retail and lifestyle clientele. The beloved Minnesota liquor retailer possesses a passion and knowledge of wine, beer and spirits that goes beyond the borders of our seemingly liquid state of lakes. Haskell’s is well-known and regarded throughout the country and world as a leading wine expert.

A Hint of a Great Story

The history of this preferred Minnesota wine shop speaks to the company’s unsurpassed expertise when it comes to selecting the perfect bottle of wine. Haskell’s was founded in 1934 by Fritzi and Benny Haskell, making 2014 their 80th anniversary.  At a time when the country was drinking gin, Fritzi championed fine wines. Then in 1970, the Minnesota wine company was acquired by Chairman and C.E.O., John Farrell and has since been recognized as one of North America’s finest wine shops.

True or False: In 1935 Haskell's was the first wine retailer to bring a container into the United States from France. Answer.

Flamboyant: Let’s Get Your Attention

StoryTeller is uniquely positioned to help support Haskell’s efforts to share the company’s passion and expertise for wine, beer, spirits and perhaps even more importantly, the good life paired with an even better bottle of wine.

Refined: When Less Isn’t Always More

To stay up to date with us as we explore the world’s liquor and wine scene, be sure to check out Haskell’s wine shop on Facebook, Twitter and online at www.Haskells.com. Or, if you are just interested in an elusive wine or hard-to-find old port, Haskell’s has fourteen wine and liquor stores in the Twin Cities. Maybe we’ll bump into you there, exploring the aisles of wine and spirits.

Don’t you already feel like your wine vocabulary has grown?

Just because I cannot resist wrapping this post without it - cheers!
