Niles, IL – January 6, 2023 – Winesellers, Ltd., a second-generation family-owned importer and marketer of fine wines, announces a new partnership as exclusive U.S. importer of Bodegas Volver, the renowned Spanish grower and producer of fine wines from regions including La Mancha,Alicante, Almansa, and Jumilla.
“We welcome Bodegas Volver to our Spanish portfolio and the Winesellers family,” says Co-President Adam Sager. “This is also an especially exciting time for Bodegas Volver, led by vintner Rafael Cañizares, a visionary whose wines embody the distinctive terroir unique to their regions. Rafael is working with both his father and now his two children; this makes our new partnership even more special.” says Sager.
For more than sixteen years, Bodegas Volver has been producing wines that showcase diversity, quality, and tremendous value. Fourth-generation viticulturist Rafael Cañizares focuses on restoring forgotten vineyards, some nearly 90 years old, with indigenous varietals, such as Monastrell, Tempranillo, Merseguera, Macabeo, Verdejo and Moscatel. With sustainable farming and minimal intervention, he crafts extraordinary wines full of personality and true expression of the place.
“We’re seeing a growing interest in terroir-driven Spanish wines,” says Sager. “There’s tremendous quality and value to be found right now. Rafael is a pioneer and leader driving this concept in Spain, and we are honored to begin representing his wines in the US market.”
Cañizares explains more about the family’s long history within the wine industry. “We intend to utilize the knowledge we’ve accumulated over four generations of winemaking to create wines that capture both their land and culture”. Cañizares shared that being family-run, as they are, they consider Winesellers a natural fit. “We have trust in their family-oriented company structure, market driven approach, creative marketing and digital expertise, and well-established distribution network.”
