About Us
The wine partner. Period.
Wine is the only thing beyond food that gets a menu of its own in a restaurant — the wine list. What matters is that this wine list works for the restaurant and its guests. The complicated part is everything around it: importing, temperature-controlled storage, the delivery that lands before Friday service, a wine list that reads with pleasure and understanding. That is our specialty. Since 2000, we've been connecting the dots so that only the easy part is left to you.
Our portfolio holds 92 wineries from 13 countries — from Bordeaux and Champagne to Marlborough and Mendoza, alongside some of Bulgaria's finest wineries. We look for family producers and wines with character at every price level — so your choice is rich and your decision easy. We taste everything as a team with deep experience, and we help move Bulgaria's wine industry forward with the global know-how and best practices of our partners.
Our team works on the ground across the whole country. Many of us have been here for over a decade — the person who knows your business today will still know it tomorrow. We have witnessed every turn of modern wine history and navigate it with the confidence of a team giving its best.

How we work
A few things we agreed on among ourselves long ago — the kind our partners feel without being told.
Only wine
We specialize in wine and nothing else. Real mastery comes from devotion to a single craft — so we don't let anything else distract us.
More than a quarter century
Since 2000 we've adapted to every turn of the market. The next one won't surprise us either.
Categories don't build themselves
We don't follow the market — we build it, category by category. An analytical eye helps our clients understand changes before they feel them.
Long relationships start from within
A stable team of professionals — the person who knows your business today will still know it tomorrow. The years below prove it.
Family wineries
Our suppliers are mostly family producers who share our values — some have been with us for twenty years. Trust, like wine, takes time.
A proven selection
Every wine in the portfolio is carefully chosen and proven on the market. Your choice is safe, and your time stays with the rest of your business.
We keep our word
We pursue only ideas with clear logic and value — and we keep the promises we make. At every stage of working together.
Experience is passed on
We work with every kind of venue and pass on what we learn — trainings, events, wine-list advice. We offer solutions, not just products.
What does all this look like in person?
350 wines, 70 wineries — and the families behind them, personally behind the tables. See the event→

Careers
We have no open positions at the moment. But good relationships sometimes begin before the vacancy does — if you truly want to be part of the team, tell us about yourself.
The name? “Nunc est bibendum” — “Now is the time to drink” — is how ancient Rome toasted good news. We turned it into a profession.
