My name is Ilias Georgopoulos. For more than 20 years, I worked as an executive in the brokerage and banking sector. Although my career was full of excitement and substantial financial progress, I had a continuous “regret” in my mind. The lack of tangible progress, the lack of human interaction, and definitely the lack of added value for the society. As a consequence, I stubbornly wanted to get involved with a business that human interaction, and production of tangible assets is in the center of its philosophy, such as the “magical world” of wine.

During the WSET Diploma course wine tastings, I tasted some wines from the Mediterranean region, especially Cotes Catalanes and Priorat which were the only ones among more than 250 wines that excited my heart and resurfaced emotions, songs, and images to my mind that no other wines ever managed to do. Based on this experience, I decided in 2016 to start a distribution company that imports small to medium size artisanal wineries which produce “natural” wines mainly from the shores of the Mediterranean sea.
