Joaquin Zamorano
After graduating from the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, Joaquin Zamorano worked briefly for the investment banking industry before entering the trade industry to strengthen ties between the US and Spain. His work centers on his passion for the exceptional nature of Spanish wines and the local wineries that produce them.
“Everything around us is a miracle and everything is loaded with spirituality.
The miracle of wine begins first in the grape, which is the living expression of
the Spanish land (minerality, earth, air, water, sun). And it continues with
winemaking, which is the expression of the culture, knowledge, technique and
the character of the Spanish people. All in a glass of wine for our discovery
and admiration. Ancient vineyards, splendorous grapes, cult wines. The best
way to know Spain.”
