YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS TASTING!!

May we introduce you to Jorge Ordoñez, the human dynamo who imports Spain's biggest, deepest wine portfolio to America? More than a decade after the death of Franco in 1975, Spanish wine, once proud, had fallen to a regrettable state. However, the country's vineyards were like secret gardens, overflowing with old vines that could make superb wines, if only someone would care for them, separate the good from the bad, and not mix the good grapes with indifferent ones to make mediocre wine.

Who would awaken this sleeping giant? Jorge Ordonez.

Through the force of his personality and his practically limitless energy, Ordonez has changed the Spanish wine world, and especially the American view of Spanish wines. He's an importer and merchant, dedicated to bringing the best of Spanish wine to America, and he is based right nearby in Dedham, MA.

For Jorge it has been an uphill struggle from 1987 obscurity to the position he is in today. "When nobody cared about Spanish wines," he claims proudly, "I was there." The world's most influential wine critic Robert Parker has twice named Señor Ordoñez Wine Personality of the Year, and called him one of the most influential wine personalities of the past twenty years.
