Lisa Barriere

Lisa grew up in the food and beverage industry. Her grandfather owned an open-air fruit/produce market and her father owned a bar. Her family always threw parties, so it made sense that her love for event planning and hosting grew. It was second nature for her to create a career around food and wine. She worked in restaurants and hotels for many years and started working as a supplier 20 years ago. Growing up on the east coast, she drank mostly imported wines in her earlier days, and has always loved Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. One of her first supplier roles was selling Champagne which led her to Burgundy. She has been with Albert Bichot since December 2021.
