Ricardo Martínez

About

Over twenty years uncorking Andalusia

I'm Ricardo Martínez. WSET Certified Sommelier, trainer, storyteller. My territory is Andalusia and my obsession, those heroic vineyards clinging to the Alpujarra, to Granada and to the Costa Tropical to produce wines that exist only here.

Ricardo Martínez, sumiller

01

The beginning · the craft on the floor

I started very young in hospitality, learning that serving wine is, above all, an act of hospitality. More than two decades dedicated to wine later, I still believe it: wine isn't served, it is accompanied.

02

The training · the discipline of the palate

WSET Level II certified, trained by winemakers, growers and the finest sommeliers I have had the privilege to work with. The training never ends; wine always has one more question.

03

The present · private tastings and wine tourism

Today I design private experiences for national and international guests who want more than just a glass: they want to understand the landscape, meet the producer and keep a story worth telling.

04

The philosophy · wine with soul

I work with small wineries, altitude wines and artisan projects. I defend narrative pairing: each glass is a chapter, each tasting a book.

What I stand for, what I serve, what I tell in every glass.

It is landscape, memory, the people who make it. My job is for every glass to open a conversation worth remembering.
