We are excited to announce the arrival of an adventurer from the Uco Valley in Mendoza! Conejo Verde wines represent the spirit of experimentation, optimism and enthusiasm.

It's been a busy couple of months here at Condor Wines when it comes to new wines landing in the UK. So, here's your quick summary of our latest arrivals. We know you'll find something you can't wait to try!

Built in 1937 and sympathetically renovated in 2008 under the new ownership of Peter and Karen Dartley. The Casarena winery sits in Perdriel, at the heart of Luján de Cuyo.

When we asked our producers about harvest 2024, the common thread across all their responses was the impact of climate change. Unusual temperature variations, heavy rains and unseasonal winds led to a long and gruelling harvest period....

We've seen huge growth in our customer's interest in Uruguayan wines. The diversity and quality of wines coming from this relatively unknown South American country play a great part in that, so we're pleased to add some fantastic new listings to our range.

World Malbec Day is a global initiative from Wines of Argentina marking the role of the country in rescuing and developing the Malbec grape to its current iconic status.

After their week in Chile, Lee and Aaron moved on to an amazing week in Argentina. Many thanks to everyone who joined us and many thanks to everyone that welcomed Team Condor so warmly.

Lee and Aaron recently spent a fantastic week with our producers in Chile. Now they're back in the UK we thought we'd share some snapshots from the wineries they visited...

Ahead of International Women's Day on March 8th, we're celebrating some of the fantastic women that we work with in South America.

It’s time to look forwards into 2024 so we thought we’d share our view on the top trends we’ve indentified based on industry and consumer insight and our discussions with customers.

As another packed year draws to a close, we'd like to thank you all again for your continued support in 2023. We've been excited to see so many of our winemakers both in person, and through our virtual events.

It's been a busy month for Team Condor. We've loved being out and about to see so many of you! Here's a quick roundup of the latest news...

Benoit Fitte of Viña Requingua holds court in London and shares some remarkable bottles with guests invited by UK importer Condor Wines.

There are few more perfect pairings, especially at this time of year, than wine and cheese. But how do you make sure that your choices show off the best of both? We asked wine and cheese expert Jessica Summer to suggest the most mouthwatering cheese choices to go with some of our customers’ favourite wines.

When Bordeaux’s François Lurton planted vines in the semi-desert foothills of the Andes Cordillera, at an altitude of 1100m there were many people questioning his wisdom. But when people tried his red blend Chacayes, a wine that came from five year-old vines there, many followed his example, even establishing a new Geographical Indication of Los Chacayes – named after the wine.

It's been a busy month for Team Condor. We've loved being out and about to see so many of you! Here's a quick round-up of the latest news...

Join us on Monday 25th September in London (The Crypt on the Green) or in Leeds on Wednesday 27th September (The Tetley). 4 independent importers (Condor Wines, Haywood Bros, Marta Vine and North South Wines) all showcasing the very best they have to offer. Unforgettable new releases and essential hits for your business!

When we asked our producers about harvest 2023, the common thread across all their responses was the impact of climate change. Higher temperatures led to early harvests, with some wineries picking 6 weeks earlier than they would have done 10 years ago. Unpredictable precipitation and catastrophic spring frosts and hail have provided additional challenges for winemakers, but they remain upbeat about the quality of the 2023 vintage.

Santiago Achurra-Larraín founded Viña Requingua, which means 'Corner of the Winds' in Mapuche, in 1961. Since then, three generations of the family have been part of the winery's growth into one of Chile's top 20 producers. 21 years ago, Santiago realised his dream of creating a line of premium wines, showcasing the best of Chile, that would be accessible to consumers across the world. Toro de Piedra, 'the Stone Bull', was born.

Value is even more important right now when many consumers are having to make difficult choices. South America offers an abundance of great value options versus many other areas of the world and we work hard to reflect this in our range.

Built in 1937 and sympathetically renovated in 2008, the Casarena winery sits in Perdriel, at the heart of Luján de Cuyo. The enormous diversity of this terroir is what makes it such an exciting place to make wine today.

With Malbec Day beckoning on April 17th, we're excited to introduce our new Malbec range, Land of Malbec, including our very first white Malbec.

We can't wait to see you all at the Specialist Importers' Trade Tastings in London and Manchester next week. If you can't make it, don't hesitate to get in touch with us about any of these wines and we'll be happy to tell you more.

Welcome to 2023! We're raring to go and happy to start the year with the addition of another new agency - this time from Colchagua, Chile.
