PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Background

We are a Florida corporation formed on April 8, 2001. We were organized to be a blank check company.

On December 16, 2003, Rosehill Investments Limited, a Seychelles corporation ("Rosehill"), acquired 11,937,200 shares of New England Acquisitions, Inc.'s ("Company") Common Stock ("Shares") pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement among Rosehill, the Company, Mr. Jonathan B. Reisman and Mr. Gary Cella (the "Agreement"). The Agreement provided for the Shares to be sold as follows: 9,234,520 shares from the Company; 1,379,600 shares from Mr. Reisman; and 1,323,100 shares from Mr. Cella. As a result of the stock sale, the Directors of the Company resigned and ultimately Mr. Harry Chauhan was appointed as the sole officer and director.

At that time there were 12,552,395 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

On January 13, 2004, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from New England Acquisitions, Inc. to Atlantic Wine Agencies Inc.

On February 9, 2004, the Company’s directors resigned and Mr. Harry Chauhan was appointed as the Company's sole Director and its President.

On March 1, 2004 the Company completed a 1-for-200 reverse capitalization without affecting the par value or authorized number of shares.

On May 4, 2004 the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of New Heights 560 Holdings LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability corporation ("New Heights"), in exchange for One Hundred Million shares of its restricted common stock which is equal to 99.9% of the total outstanding shares of the Company's common stock (this transaction shall be referred to as the "Share Exchange"). New Heights owned the property in South Africa on which our vineyard operations are located.

Prior to the Share Exchange, the Company was engaged in the business of manufacturing and distributing various skin creams and generated minimal revenues as a result.

Present

As a result of the Share Exchange, the Company now has two wholly owned subsidiaries, Mount Rozier Estates (Pty) Limited and Mount Rozier Properties (Pty) Limited. Such companies own a world class vineyard in the Stellenbosch region of Western Cape, South Africa. The vineyard and surrounding properties consist of 80.9 hectares of arable land for viticultural as well as residential and commercial purposes. In the opinion of the management the site is a world class in terms of location, soil composition and future development potential.

Mount Rozier Estates (Pty) Limited and Mount Rozier Properties (Pty) Limited produces super premium quality wines on a boutique vineyard basis. We have become a notable producer of quality wines from South Africa by further: (i) developing and expanding our wine cellar tasting facilities and upgrading vineyards through better crop management; (ii) enhancing our strategic distribution channels with various international agents and direct route to market channels; and (iii) brand development efforts.

The launch of the wines under new patent branded labeling and marketing occurred in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2004 in South Africa and the United Kingdom.

Our wines were initially issued in three tiers: Mount Rozier a top quality super premium single vineyard brand; Rozier Bay a mid price range wine; Rozier Reef and a mainstream market product. Such wines have received several significant awards recently and we have built a significant regional route to market for sales which is on target with our early internal projections.

In September 2004, Mr. Adam Mauerberger became President of the Company and Chairman of the Board. Also in September the Company hired Mr. Andy Bayley to be the Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing.

As an effort to reduce costs and centralize our operations due to securing an exclusive agency agreement with HBJ wines within the UK AWA INC. relocated all operations to South Africa as the main profit centre. This move resulted in substantial cost savings. At that time, however, the Company began contemplating a sale of some or all of its assets.

On October 13, 2006, Atlantic Wine Agencies, Inc. entered into an agreement with Auction Alliance, the South African auction firm, to sell its Myrtle Grove Property and Estates. Assets including land, vineyards, winery equipment and stock will be included in the auction sale. Our management has concluded that (i) after expending considerable resources and efforts in developing its business and building world class wine brands from South Africa, significantly more capital is necessary to further grow the business which the Company is unable to procure on commercially acceptable terms, (ii) The ZAR (South African Rand) has shown considerable volatility related to uncertainty regarding future political situation and (iii) the best time to maximize our South African property and operations is by selling through the public auction process locally in South Africa prior to the growing season in the southern hemisphere. The Company was unable to sell its business to any auction bidders because it could not agree on terms. Therefore, the Company continues its business as a world class wine maker but still intends to sell its assets as soon as practicable.

In anticipation of the sale of our assets, o n January 11, 2008, we entered into an agreement with Sapphire Developments Limited (“Sapphire”) and Fairhurst Properties S.A. (“Fairhurst”) to restructure certain debt held by Sapphire (the “Debt Restructuring Agreement”). The Debt Restructuring Agreement was executed to address a November 16, 2005 loan to the Company by Sapphire of One Million Two Hundred Fifty-Nine Thousand Eight Hundred Sixty-Three U.S. Dollars (US$1,259,863) with Five Percent (5%) interest calculated on an annualized basis pursuant a promissory note (“Promissory Note”). As of January 11, 2008, the balance due was One Million Three Hundred Eighty Eight Thousand Nine Hundred and Ninety Nine U.S. Dollars (US$1,388,999). Sapphire agreed to terminate the Promissory Note and restructure its debt in exchange for the following consideration articulated in the Debt Restructuring Agreement:

	·	The Company agreed to pay Three Million Two Hundred Thousand South African Rand (R$3,200,000) to Sapphire, an amount approximately equal to Four Hundred Sixty-Eight Thousand and Ninety Two U.S. Dollars (US$468,092), in two installments. The first installment of One Million Two Hundred Thousand South African Rand (R$1,200,000) was paid by the Company on January 11, 2008. The second installment of Two Million South African Rand (R$2,000,000) was to be paid on or before January 31, 2008 but was extended pursuant to an agreement between the Company and Sapphire.
	·	The Company issued 26,699,950 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”) to Sapphire in exchange for relief from $533,999 of the debt underlying the Promissory Note.

	·	The Company, Sapphire and Fairhurst entered into a voting agreement concurrent with the Debt Restructuring Agreement (“Voting Agreement”).
	·	The Company issued a promissory note to Fairhurst for approximately $400,000 without interest to mature on January 11, 2009.

	·	Each of Sapphire and Fairhurst executed mutual releases.
	·	Fairhurst will ensure that Adam Mauerberger remain as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company until such time that a material merger or share exchange occurs (“Atlantic Corporate Event”).

19,960,000 shares of the Company’s common stock owned by Fairhurst (“Fairhurst Shares”) shall be transferred to Sapphire upon the earlier of the six-month anniversary date of the Debt Restructuring Agreement or the completion of an Atlantic Corporate Event.

On April 8, 2008, we issued a press release announcing that we had executed a letter of intent ("Letter of Intent") with Independence Energy Corporation, a privately held company located in Alberta, Canada (“IEC”), that set forth an agreement in principal for Atlantic to acquire all of IEC’s issued and outstanding common shares (“Acquisition”).

The Acquisition was based upon securing an operating oil and gas production company with assets consisting of 31 sections of land under direct ownership and 80 sections held under farm-in agreements with six producing gas wells together with pipeline and infrastructure collection facilities.

In an effort to enhance shareholder value, Atlantic’s Board of Directors sought out a business in the energy sector which was positioned to profit from the continued growth and strength in the price of oil as well as the emerging reliance and appreciation in price of domestic natural gas. The Board has spent considerable time and energy identifying potential targets and reviewing assets throughout North America with the goal of providing substantial value and potentially significant long term growth for the current Atlantic shareholders. IEC appeared to be a suitable candidate as it has successfully explored and developed reserves as well as contributed to a reliable ongoing rate of growth.

Consideration for the Acquisition was to consist of a share exchange agreement. The Letter of Intent and Acquisition is subject to the completion of due diligence, board and shareholder approvals, the satisfaction/release of any security interests held in IEC’s interests to be conveyed, and the execution of definitive agreements.

In April 2008, the Company sold a parcel of its South African Vineyard for $494,200 (R$4,000,000). The Company as a result of the sale will recognize a loss of approximately $31,600 on the sale. The closing took place in April 2008.

On May 19, 2008, the Company completed a 1-for-25 reverse capitalization without affecting the par value or authorized number of shares.

On July 8, 2008, we terminated the share exchange agreement that we had entered with Independence Energy Corporation f/k/a Endeavor Energy Corporation (“Endeavor”), a privately held company located in Alberta, Canada, on May 16, 2008.

The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.

On January 11, 2008, we entered into an agreement with Sapphire Developments Limited (“Sapphire”) and Fairhurst Properties S.A. (“Fairhurst”) to restructure certain debt held by Sapphire (the “Debt Restructuring Agreement”). The Debt Restructuring Agreement was executed to address a November 16, 2005 loan to the Company by Sapphire of One Million Two Hundred Fifty-Nine Thousand Eight Hundred Sixty-Three U.S. Dollars (US$1,259,863) with Five Percent (5%) interest calculated on an annualized basis pursuant a promissory note (“Promissory Note”). As of January 11, 2008, the balance due was One Million Three Hundred Eighty Eight Thousand Nine Hundred and Ninety Nine U.S. Dollars (US$1,388,999). Sapphire agreed to terminate the Promissory Note and restructure its debt in exchange for the following consideration articulated in the Debt Restructuring Agreement:

	·	The Company agreed to pay Three Million Two Hundred Thousand South African Rand (R$3,200,000) to Sapphire, an amount approximately equal to Four Hundred Sixty-Eight Thousand and Ninety Two U.S. Dollars (US$468,092), in two installments. The first installment of One Million Two Hundred Thousand South African Rand (R$1,200,000) was paid by the Company on January 11, 2008. The second installment of Two Million South African Rand (R$2,000,000) was to be paid on or before January 31, 2008 but was extended pursuant to an agreement between the Company and Sapphire.
	·	The Company issued 26,699,950 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”) to Sapphire in exchange for relief from $533,999 of the debt underlying the Promissory Note.

	·	The Company, Sapphire and Fairhurst entered into a voting agreement concurrent with the Debt Restructuring Agreement (“Voting Agreement”).
	·	The Company issued a promissory note to Fairhurst for approximately $400,000 without interest to mature on January 11, 2009.

	·	Each of Sapphire and Fairhurst executed mutual releases.
	·	Fairhurst will ensure that Adam Mauerberger remain as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company until such time that a material merger or share exchange occurs (“Atlantic Corporate Event”).

Due to uncertainty of our South African operations, including certain national political policies that effect our business and the a recent downgrade of our international credit rating, management has concluded that the continued pursuit of a business strategy solely focused on world-class wine production is not in the best interest of our shareholders. In making this determination management also considered the current surplus of bulk wine persistent in our industry, currency fluctuations and the restriction of reserve bank currency regulations.

In an effort to cultivate an acquisition candidate, management substantially reduced its cost of sales during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2008 as compared to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2007. The primary cause of this reduction was the winding down of AWA Ltd., which resulted in the elimination of direct sales and warehousing with the United Kingdom. Other factors that contributed to our reduction in cost of sales include our outsourcing of wine production, our reduction in human resource demands and our adoption of a “just-in-time” inventory strategy. To continue our marketing in the United Kingdom, the Company entered into an agency agreement with HBJ Wines & Spirits. As a result, the Company continues its business as a world class wine producer but intends to sell its current assets to key shareholders as soon as practicable and to further reduce the Company’s debt to develop or acquire a business or businesses which we believe will best serve the long term interests of our shareholders. Such businesses may or may not be related to the wine industry .

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

O perating costs f or the year ended March 31, 2008 aggregated $ 744,245 or ($0.01 ) per share as compared to $ 1,762,324 or ( $0.02 ) per share for the year ended March 31, 2007 .

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the year ended March 31, 2008, net cash used to fund operating activities aggregated ($906,425), net cash utilized by investing activities aggregated $(38,185) and net cash provided by financing activities aggregated $784,974.

For the year ended March 31, 2007, net cash used to fund operating activities aggregated ($795,205), net cash utilized by investing activities aggregated $5,380 and net cash provided by financing activities aggregated $194,692.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, income taxes and contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Subsequent Events

On May 19, 2008, the Company completed a 1-for-25 reverse capitalization without affecting the par value or authorized number of shares.

The Company continues to evaluate all opportunities to maximize shareholder value including the sale of some or all of our assets or the acquisition of other businesses.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation 48, “Accounting for Income Tax Uncertainties” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 defines the threshold for recognizing the benefits of tax return positions in the financial statements as “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the taxing authority. The recently issued literature also provides guidance on the derecognition, measurement and classification of income tax uncertainties, along with any related interest and penalties. FIN 48 also includes guidance concerning accounting for income tax uncertainties in interim periods and increases the level of disclosures associated with any recorded income tax uncertainties. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under other accounting pronouncements that permit or require fair value measurements, changes the methods used to measure fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. In particular, disclosures are required to provide information on the extent to which fair value is used to measure assets and liabilities; the inputs used to develop measurements; and the effect of certain of the measurements on earnings (or changes in net assets). SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption, as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year, is also permitted, provided interim financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company expects to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 157 and is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 allows entities to measure at fair value many financial instruments and certain other assets and liabilities that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not determined what impact, if any, that adoption will have on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations . This standard establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. This statement also establishes disclosure requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No.141R is effective for us for acquisitions made after November 30, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, that the adoption of SFAS No. 141R will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements . This standard outlines the accounting and reporting for ownership interest in a subsidiary held by parties other than the parent. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the first quarter of 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, that the adoption of SFAS No. 160 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors

Atlantic Wine Agencies, Inc.

Somerset West, South Africa

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Atlantic Wine Agencies, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of March 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to, perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2008 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note A to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred cumulative losses of $8,511,289 since inception, has negative working capital of $2,013,073, and there are existing uncertain conditions the Company faces relative to its ability to obtain capital and operate successfully. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note A. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE A

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

Atlantic Wine Agencies, Inc., formerly New England Acquisitions, Inc., (the “Company”), was organized under the laws of the State of Florida. On May 4, 2005, the Company acquired New Heights 560 Holdings, LLC, (“New Heights”) a Cayman Island Limited Liability Company which owns two subsidiaries in South Africa and has a world class vineyard producing high quality wines to be marketed principally in Europe. New Heights had no operations prior to March 1, 2005.

Going Concern

As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred cumulative net operating losses of $8,511,289 since inception and has negative working capital of $2,013,073. Management’s plans include the raising of capital through the equity markets to fund future operations and the generating of revenue through its business. Failure to raise adequate capital and generate adequate sales revenues could result in the Company having to curtail or cease operations. The Company is also seeking a viable merger candidate. Additionally, even if the Company does raise sufficient capital to support its operating expenses and generate adequate revenues, there can be no assurances that the revenues will be sufficient to enable it to develop business to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company considers the South African Rand to be its functional currency. Assets and liabilities were translated into US dollars at period-end exchange rates. Statements of operations amounts were translated using the average rate during the period. Gains and losses resulting from translating foreign currency financial statements were accumulated in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Cash Equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash equivalents include investment instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets

and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2008

NOTE A

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Property and Equipment and Depreciation

Property and equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Routine maintenance, repairs and replacement costs are expensed as incurred and improvements that extend the useful life of the assets are capitalized. Costs incurred in developing vineyards, including related interest costs, are capitalized until the vineyards become commercially productive. When property and equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations. The Company computes depreciation using the straight line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the estimated useful lives.

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market based on the average cost method.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is determinable and collectibility is probable.

Consolidated Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for the reporting and disclosure of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in a business enterprise’s equity during a period arising from transactions, events or circumstances relating to non-owner sources, such as foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by or distributions to owners. Comprehensive income is accumulated in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The Company uses financial instruments in the normal course of business. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses and accrued payroll taxes approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. The carrying values of loans from principal stockholders approximate their fair value based upon management’s estimates using the best available information.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and

NOTE A

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets (Continued)

used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company follows SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” in assessing Goodwill for impairment. The Company performs an impairment review, at least annually, for each reporting unit with assigned goodwill, using a fair value approach whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the goodwill asset may not be fully recoverable. Reporting units may be operating segments, or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. Under the fair value approach, whenever the carrying value of the reporting unit, including the goodwill asset, exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit (generally based on the reporting unit’s future estimated discounted cash flows), then the goodwill asset may be impaired and the Company is required to compare the implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill with the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill is greater than the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, an impairment loss must be recognized for the excess.

Net Loss Per Common Share

The Company computes per share amounts in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 128, “Earnings per Share”. SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the income (loss) available to Common Stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents outstanding during the periods.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for employee stock based compensation and stock issued for services using the fair value method. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 96-18, the measurement date of shares issued for services is the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under the asset and liability method of Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

NOTE H INCOME TAXES

At March 31, 2008, the Company had an unused net operating loss carryforward of approximately $8,500,000 for income tax purposes, which expires at various limitations imposed by the rules and regulations of various statutory agencies. This net operating loss carryforward may result in future income tax benefits of approximately $2,500,000, however, because realization is uncertain at this time, a valuation reserve in the same amount has been established. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

The Company’s effective tax rate of 0% for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was different from the statutory rate of 30% due to the valuation allowance.

Item 8A Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

As of March 31, 2008, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Adam Mauerberger, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in our periodic reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified for each report and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is under the supervision of the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officer and attempts to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP to provide reasonable assurances that:

Maintenance of records is in reasonable detail and accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;

Transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

The Company can detect on a timely basis any unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statement.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and financial consultant, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria publicly available in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework Executive Summary” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), as of December 31, 2007.

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses at March 31, 2008:

Due to the Company’s limited resources, the Company has insufficient personnel resources and technical accounting and reporting expertise to properly address all of the accounting matters inherent in the Company’s financial transactions. The Company relies on its bookkeeper to enter all of the Company’s financial transactions in the Company’s books and accounts, and a separate outside accountant to prepare its quarterly financial statements. Additionally, the Company does not have a formal audit committee, and the Board does not have a financial expert, thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.

The Company’s small size and “one-person” office prohibits the segregation of duties and the timely review of accounts payable, expense reporting and inventory management and banking information.

As a result of these material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that, as of March 31, 2008, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the publicly available criteria in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by COSO.

Our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and financial consultant are in the process of determining how best to change our current system and implement a more effective system of controls, procedures to insure that information required to be disclosed in this annual report on Form 10-KSB has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately. Our management acknowledges the existence of this problem, and intends to developed procedures to address them to the extent possible given limitations in financial and manpower resources. However, since inception, the Company has experienced cash flow problems and as a result has not had the resources to address fully the certification requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. While management is working on a plan, no assurance can be made at this point that the implementation of such controls and procedures will be completed in a timely manner or that they will be adequate once implemented. Failure to develop adequate internal control and hiring of qualified accounting personnel may result in a “material weakness” in the Company’s internal control relating to the above activities.

This evaluation does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s evaluation was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls.

During the twelve months ended March 31, 2008, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III

ITEM 9. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, PROMOTERS AND CONTROL PERSONS; COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS

Messr. Adam Mauerberger is the sole director of the Company. The Company's director is elected at each Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The director currently serving on the Company's Board and the sole executive officer is set forth in the table below:

Name Age Positions and Offices With The Company

Adam Mauerberger 38 Chairman; Chief Executive Officer;

President; Chief Financial Officer

No director holds any directorship in a company with a class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or subject to the requirements of Section 15(d) of such Act. No director holds any directorship in a company registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

As the Board of Directors only has two directors and the Company two employees, no Audit or Strategy Committee has been established. The Company does not have a standing nominating committee or any committee performing a similar function. For the above reasons, the Company has not adopted a code of ethics.

The following is a biographical summary of the directors and officers of the Company:

Adam Mauerberger

On March 1, 2004, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Atlantic Wine Agencies Limited, contracted with Mr. Adam Mauerberger as its CEO and acting sales and marketing manager director. On July 26, 2004, Mr. Mauerberger was elected to the Company’s board of directors and he assumed the title of President of the Company at that time. Upon Mr. Harry Chauhan’s resignation, Mr. Mauerberger assumed the title of Chief Financial Officer as well.

Adam was responsible for the development and management of Zachys Wine Merchants Limited, an exclusive premium wine dealer based in London. He also managed the launch and management of the Mayfair fine wine format for Majestic Wines Limited. He was responsible for driving the development of several prestige agency brands including Bollinger, Rustenburg and Southcorp brands. Adam was also key in the development of premium wine agencies for London and the South East under BRL Hardy and Constellation Wines.

Audit Committee

As the Company is relatively small and a developmental company, we have neither an audit committee of the Board of Directors nor an “audit committee financial expert”, as such term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act. We believe that the members of our Board of Directors are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding our internal controls and procedures, including those pertaining to financial reporting. In addition, we believe that retaining an independent Director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in light of our current size.

Code of Ethics

Our Board of Directors adopted a code of business conduct and ethics policy, the “Code of Ethics”. The Code of Ethics allows us to focus our Board of Directors and each Director and officer on areas of ethical risk, provide guidance to Directors to help them recognize and deal with ethical issues, provide mechanisms to report unethical conduct and help foster a culture of honesty and accountability.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, officers (including a person performing a principal policy-making function) and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities of ours. Directors, officers and 10% holders are required by Commission regulations to send us copies of all of the Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely upon a review of the copies of the forms sent to us and the representations made by the reporting persons to us, we believe that during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, our directors, officers and 10% holders complied with the filing requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

ITEM 10. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The table below sets forth all annual and long-term compensation paid by the Company through the latest practicable date to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and to all executive officers of the Company who received total annual salary and bonus in excess of $100,000 for services rendered in all capacities to the Company and its subsidiaries during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008.
