About us
Single Export Department
We are the shared export department of family wineries with a very specific profile: Family wineries, which produce wines from native varieties, claiming the potential of their terroir, its climate, its environment and their life project through wine and their vineyards…
For Wineries
Each winery has its own identity, they work independently, but with the same philosophy of life: offer wines with character, expression of terroir and a “non-interventionist” production to allow the variety to offer its maximum expression.
Our goal is to streamline our clients’ export process and offer the world the extraordinary diversity of Spanish wine regions.
For Importers
For the quality, diversity and originality of our range. Our wines represent an opportunity to add something original to your range; wines that are authentic, full of character, a pure expression of their terroir.
