With over 40 years of experience in the wine and spirits industry, Michael Esposito joined Golden Ram Imports as Vice President of Sales in 2018.
Through his years working with both Importing and Distributing fine wine and spirits, Michael has been fortunate to travel through numerous countries and across different continents.
With some several hundred wineries and vineyards visited during these years, and winery family relationships built, his experiences within the world of wine continue to grow.
Raised in Barcelona by American parents, Nathan grew up in a family driven by an obsessive interest in food and wine. After completing music studies at the New School, he has been working in the hospitality and wine industries in NYC for over 20 years, and has become a passionate expert in not only Spanish wines, but in wines from around the globe.
He approaches the world of wine with a deep curiosity for its history, its evolution and the authentic expression of a sense of place. In his ‘down time’ he is the father of three, an avid cook and a lover of music in all its forms.
A gem of a winery, housed in a 13th Century convent in the heart of the Ribera del Duero. The estate is made up of over 60 plots of ancient vines dating back to 1915. Rustic and polished all at once, this is a wine rooted in tradition and authenticity.
Founded in 1879 in Haro and owned and operated by the Real de Asua family ever since, the Compania Vinicola del Norte de Espana (CVNE), is an icon in Rioja and a bellwether for quality and style in the region. These are two of their most sought after bottlings:
Rias Baixas (meaning ‘low estuaries’), in Spain’s northwestern region of Galicia, is a cool and rainy Atlantic terroir perfectly suited for making high quality white wines that pair perfectly with the abundance of seafood found on its coastline. Do Ferreiro is one of the most historic and lauded producers in the region and Valtea a celebrated newcomer from the exciting sub-zone of ‘Condado de Tea’.
Corpinnat is a new classification reserved for the highest quality of Cava producers. Growers must farm organically, all grapes must be hand-harvested and the wines must be made and aged in the heart of the Penedes region. Gramona is currently under the stewardship of its 5th generation of wine-growers and quietly churns out some of the very best Cava in the region, rivaling the finest sparkling wines of the world.
