We are incredibly proud to announce that United Cellars has been named the Beyond Borders Business of the Year at the prestigious 2026 Beam Awards.
The Beam Awards recognize outstanding commercial excellence, innovation, and leadership, celebrating enterprises that challenge standard operational boundaries. The Beyond Borders Business of the Year category specifically honors organizations that have demonstrated exceptional growth, seamless international adaptability, and a truly global vision in connecting premium products with consumers worldwide.
Bridging the World’s Finest Cellars
This recognition is a profound testament to our team’s dedication to excellence on a global scale. In an increasingly interconnected world, breaking down geographical barriers to source, secure, and deliver the world’s most coveted wines and spirits has always been at the heart of the United Cellars mission.
From the historic estates of Bordeaux and Burgundy to the pioneering vineyards of the New World, our vision has always extended far beyond local borders. Winning this award validates our tireless focus on cross-border logistics, international cellar sourcing, and our commitment to bringing a world-class, seamless fine wine experience to our global community of passionate collectors and enthusiasts.
"To be recognized on the global stage as the Beyond Borders Business of the Year is an extraordinary honor for United Cellars. This accolade belongs entirely to our incredible team, whose relentless drive allows us to scale new heights internationally, and to our loyal clients worldwide who continue to trust us to curate their collections and share in their wine journeys."

Innovation and Tradition In Harmony
While 2026 has already brought monumental milestones for our digital platform and international brokerage network, we view this accolade not just as a reflection of past success, but as a catalyst for the future. As we continue to expand our international footprint, refine our direct-from-estate allocations, and connect global wine communities through cutting-edge customer experiences, we remain deeply committed to the core values that brought us here.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Beam Awards judging panel, our phenomenal international network of winemakers and logistics partners, and, most importantly, you—our community—for being a vital part of our global journey.
Here’s to breaking more boundaries, and to the many exceptional bottles yet to be shared.
