“A really fantastic evening. Thank you so much Elio. Your knowledge of Seville’s food and drink was astounding. We would recommend your tour to anyone.”
Wine Concierge
A personal advisor for the wines you drink — and the ones you collect. Honest, curated recommendations from a certified wine educator based in Seville.

Drink + invest
two angles
direct to Elio
One person who actually knows wine, on your side.
Choosing a wine is easy when there are six bottles on a list. It becomes a problem when there are six thousand — and a serious one when real money is involved. The Wine Concierge is a quiet, personal service for both moments.
We help you pick the right bottle for tonight, the right case for the year, and — if that's what you want — the right wines to put away for the next decade. No catalogues, no commissions on hidden inventory, no "house favourite" pushed because it has stock to clear.
Two Options, One Advisor
For your table
Bottles for tonight's dinner, a birthday, an anniversary, or a case to ship home. Tell us the occasion, the food and the budget — we'll come back with hand-picked suggestions and where to buy them.
- Daily-drinking selections across all price points
- Pairings for a specific menu or dish
- Gift bottles for clients, friends or family
- Cases to take or ship home after your trip
For your cellar
Spanish fine wine has quietly become one of the most interesting collectible categories in Europe. We help you build a small, focused cellar — bottles meant to age, appreciate in value, and one day, be opened on a very good night.
- Investment-grade Spanish and European wines
- Vintage selection, storage and provenance guidance
- Allocations from family producers (Jerez, Rioja, Ribera, Champagne…)
- Honest opinions on what to buy, hold or skip
How it works
- 01
You send a WhatsApp
Tell Elio what you need — a wine for Saturday, a case for the office, or a bottle worth holding for ten years. No form, no inbox black hole.
- 02
A short conversation
We dig into your taste, your budget and the goal (drink, gift, invest). A quick chat is usually all it takes to set the brief right.
- 03
A curated shortlist
You receive a focused selection — typically 3 to 6 bottles — with tasting notes, prices and the why behind every pick. No catalogues, no upsell.
- 04
Buy, ship or store
We help you secure the bottles from the right source, arrange shipping if needed, and advise on storage so the wines actually arrive in shape.
Wine as an investment — quietly serious
A well-chosen cellar of age-worthy wines has historically delivered returns that compare favourably with traditional financial assets — with the small detail that, if the market disappoints, you can drink your portfolio. We focus on bottles with a real track record: top vintages from established producers in Jerez, Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Priorat, the Champagne region and a few French and Italian icons. No fads, no NFTs, no hype storage units.

A intentionally intimate service, taken seriously
Not a marketplace, not a club, not an app. One person who knows the producers, opens the bottles, and tells you what is actually worth your money — for tonight or for ten years from now.
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is the Wine Concierge?
A personal advisory service for buying wine. We help you choose bottles — for drinking, for gifting, or as a long-term investment — and point you to the best source to buy them. It is not a tasting; it is a relationship.
Is this only for collectors or also for casual drinkers?
Both. Half of our requests are 'find me the perfect bottle for a dinner', the other half are 'help me build a small cellar I can hold for ten years'. Same care for either.
How much does the service cost?
There is no fixed price list. We tailor each engagement to the brief — a one-off recommendation, a curated case, or ongoing cellar advice. Send a WhatsApp message and we will be transparent about cost before any commitment.
How do I start?
Send Elio a WhatsApp message. Briefly describe what you are looking for (a bottle, a case, a cellar) and your budget. He typically replies the same day.
Can you ship wine internationally?
Yes, in most cases. We work with established merchants who ship within the EU, to the UK, the US and beyond. We will be upfront if a specific country or wine is not feasible.
Do you only recommend Spanish wines?
Spanish wines are our specialty — Jerez, Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Priorat, Cava and more. But Elio is also a Champagne Expert (Level 3), so French sparkling and other European wines are very much on the table.
Why buy wine for investment?
A small, well-chosen cellar of age-worthy wines can appreciate meaningfully over 10–20 years — and unlike most investments, you can also drink it. We help you focus on bottles with genuine track record, not hype.
Who is Elio?
Your host and advisor. Elio is a Certified Sherry Educator (D.O. Jerez-Xérès-Sherry), holds the WSET Level 3 Award in Wines (Merit), the Diploma in DOCa Rioja, is a Cava Educator (D.O. Cava) and a Champagne Expert, Level 3.
