The new face of wine auctions
Wine auctions have historically catered to an elite and established clientele, but Filene seeks to open the door to the next generation of fine-wine lovers. At Zachys, she’s responsible for acquisition procurement and the development of new business streams and consumers. Whether through a revamp of its online auction platform or her dinner series, Raiding the Cellar, Filene creates dynamic and accessible gateways for younger consumers to fall in love the world’s rarest and most legendary wines. —Inset photo by Christine Erickson
