Selections from Phil

Phil forever changed the landscape for how wine is sold when he started the Fine Wine Program for Safeway 35 years ago. His goal was to make wines that were typically only sold in restaurants and specialty shops available to customers at their local grocery store. After the success of the program in California, Phil rolled it across the country and led the company to become the largest wine retailer in the United States. Today, Phil is passionate about continuing to enable more people to access and enjoy fine wines.
