Oliver McCrum Wines has been importing small production Italian wine and distributing to fine retail and restaurant establishes throughout California since 1994. Over time, our portfolio of producers has steadily grown to over 45 producers from 15 different regions of Italy. We look for typical Italian wines with clarity and freshness, usually made from indigenous Italian grape varieties using clean, transparent winemaking techniques and no obvious use of oak.

Krystal Peoples, SF Sales

Krystal joined us earlier this year in April. She comes to us with a fast knowledge and experience in restaurants, working as a chef and a wine buyer. On any given day she can be found reading, making kefir waters, and seeking out the best hole in the wall restaurants. Krystal favorite apertivo lately has been any of the vermouths from Macchia. 

Cristin Brown, Marketing & Communications Manager, SF Sales

Cristin began working with the company in 2016 and has played many roles. She most recently manages marketing and communications and sells our wines and spirits in San Francisco. Cristin is a true spirit aficionado and enjoys exploring how our spirits fit into classic cocktail recipes, as well as hiking around the Bay Area with her family and dog.

Lauren Reuthinger, Fresno to Tahoe + East Bay Sales

Lauren joined our team in January 2021, coming out of the hospitality industry to embrace her cocktail nerd tendencies. Despite her NorCal roots, she is an avid Dodgers fan who also owns & organically farms a Fuju persimmon orchard outside of Lodi. She’s the bus driver for all 9 person vehicles when traveling in Italy and her favorite grape will be Verdicchio, always and forever!

İrem Sahin, Peninsula, South Bay & Monterey Peninsula Sales

Irem holds a master’s degree in environmental engineering, and after spending years in the corporate world, fell in love with wine and never looked back. To deepen her knowledge, she studied winemaking. She later managed beverage programs in San Francisco and now finds joy connecting with people through honest, soulful wines—especially the bright whites of Southern Italy. If she’s not driving, she loves running.

Jordie Ricigliano, Central Coast Sales

Jordie came to us in February 2024 from her home base in Santa Barbara to help us expand along the Central Coast. When she is not spreading the gospel about Lambrusco or Italian volcanic wines, Jordie grows agaves with her husband for the production of agave spirits under their label Los Hijuelos. She also loves to hike, cook, travel and hang out with her chickens in the garden with a spritz in hand. 

Adam Davidow, Los Angeles Sales

Adam came to us in July 2019, coming up through restaurants and selling wine in the SF South Bay Area and Santa Cruz County. If he had to choose a region to be stuck in during a pandemic it would be Alto Adige, or maybe Campania, he can't decide. When he’s not blending Emidio Pepe, he likes to put amaro in Daiquiris, and convinces everyone in Los Angeles that amaro is medicinal.

Liz Rubin, Los Angeles Sales

Liz Rubin joined the team in 2024 after being a devotee from her work as a buyer in San Francisco. She is thrilled to be an Angeleno and loves that her passion for wine and spirits supports her exploration of her new city. When Liz isn't drinking Champagne or Pineau d'Aunis from the Loire she loves herbal and aromatic reds from the Piedmont, Timorasso, and Fiano.

Cameron Martinez, LA Beach Cities, Orange County, & the Desert Sales

Cameron moved here from New Orleans by way of Chicago to help us satisfy the growing demand for our wines and spirits in Orange County, the desert and the beach cities of LA. When he’s not working (or driving), he loves to cook new recipes, play drums, and eat his way through the greater LA food scene. His favorite things to drink are La Colombera Timorasso and Fred Jerbis Amaro.

Kelly Kohlman, San Diego Sales

Kelly joined the team in 2024 after getting to know the company as a wine buyer for Born and Raised Steakhouse and Seneca Trattoria in San Diego. Kelly fell in love with wine while working in restaurants in New York City, in part because she loves taking tests. She is a WSG Italian Wine Scholar, a CMS Certified Sommelier, and has earned the WSET Level 3 Award in Wines. She loves drinking riesling, singing to her cat, and dominating at bar trivia.
