Tour the tradition Latin Wine Country from the comfort of your own home. Vino Latino is a wine club that celebrates Latino vintners and winemakers within the United States via a wine club that ships twice per year. We are excited to work with pioneers of the American wine industry such as Gustavo Brambila, the Robledo Family and Rafael Rios as well as the newcomers on the scene such as Leo Martinez and Trini Amador. The American wine industry was built on the backs of Latinos, and now, after years of hard work, Latino vintners and winemakers are at the forefront of the wine industry. Where they once toiled in the vineyards, they now own them and they now can claim the name �winemaker.� They have taken their passion for family, land, and work and poured it into their wines. At Vino Latino we feature wine made with Latin Passion in the USA. Small Lots Big Wines - Wine Club We ship wine via our wine club twice per year. These wines are sourced from small producers within the United States. The smaller the better is what we believe in. With our 4-tier system, we find wines that are hand-crafted and produced in small lots that will fit into a variety of budgets. We also believe in Quality not Quantity. One thing we've learned is that Quality is driven by a passion for the wine, Quantity is driven by a passion for money. However, wineries focused on quality often don't have the money to advertise, they don't have the connections to get into stores, they don't have the time to facebook or twitter, so their awesome wines often go undiscovered. That's where we come in. Through our wine club you are able to meet the "winery" in the comfort of your own home when that shipment arrives at your door.
