Cheers & Welcome to LaFontaine Consulting LLC
Experienced Export Sales Services
WHO AM I
Alexandra LaFontaine / Owner
With over 20 years of export sales experience with Washington State's largest winery, I am now leveraging my expertise and network to assist wineries of all sizes in achieving global success. As a knowledgeable, intuitive, and authentic professional, I bring a multilingual and caring approach to help wineries find their rightful place in the global wine market. I am passionate about supporting wineries and their journey in the global wine space.
WHAT I DO
Fractional Export Management & Global Sales Support
International growth doesn’t need to be complicated—or resource-heavy. I work as a fractional export manager, supporting both wineries and importers with practical, hands-on execution and strategic guidance.
For wineries, I act as an extension of your team—building and managing export markets, developing the right pricing and positioning, and handling the day-to-day realities of international sales, from distributor relationships to compliance and logistics.
For importers, I serve as a direct link to a curated portfolio of premium US wineries—streamlining sourcing, aligning pricing and expectations, and supporting long-term brand development in your market.
Whether it’s launching new markets, strengthening existing partnerships, navigating paperwork and labeling, or simply keeping things moving, the focus is always the same: clear strategy, strong relationships, and consistent execution..

Why Work With Me
I operate as a fractional export partner, bridging the gap between wineries and importers. That means aligning both sides—commercially and operationally—so business actually gets done.
With deep experience in international wine markets and an established global network, I focus on what matters: the right placements, sustainable pricing, and relationships that lead to repeat business—not just one-off deals.
