Our know-how as niche wine market developers...
Driven by our passion for wine and its diversity, we are building a dynamic wine scene in Colombia.
We have gathered experience importing and developing a market for wines of underrepresented origins, such as Austria, Italy, and Germany. Moreover, these wines come from organic and biodynamic farming and arise from unconventional winemaking approaches, such as skin-contact fermentation. A considerable fraction of Colombian wine consumers are not familiar with these exciting wines and are very likely to fall in love with them.
Along with like-minded colleagues and friends, who import similar wines from small producers in France and other origins in central-east Europe, we have decided to offer our joint knowledge and experience.
Our expertise is an asset! We are confident we can help individual niche wineries, or their associations, in Austria, France, Germany, and Italy to gauge and approach the Colombian wine market and to find the best ways to enter and succeed in this market.
In Colombia, organic and biodynamic wines are a rarity, and their market development entails multiple challenges.
