In 1996, Nicholas Hammeken, who already had experience in marketing and selling wine in various European countries, opened his own business. At first, the company was just selling and reselling wines from other wineries, but then, in 2001, they had their first own line of wines. The company follows the latest global trends in order to produce wine of very good quality and at a relatively inexpensive price from local Spanish grape varieties.
“I’m your organic is not only a range of wines, is an enviroment initiative in which for each bottle or bag-in-box sold we plant a tree in deforested areas of Africa.”
