About Hammeken Cellars

We are a modern and innovative producer of Spanish wines, with a portfolio focused on branded products developed through the understanding of consumers' needs.

Our origins

Nicholas Hammeken's early interest for wine has lead him to dedicate his career and life to his passion. After finishing his studies in Copenhaguen, he collaborated in sales and marketing roles within the wine industry, in France, Germany and the UK.

In 1996 Nicholas decided to start his own venture and so Hammeken Cellars - formerly Vinnico Export - was born. Initially conceived as a non  branded wine trader, their first own wine collection, Montgó,  was launched in 2001. Ever since, the company has seen the succcess of other brands such as Piquitos, Allegranza, Creencia, Gotas de Mar, Pasas or Radio Boka, to name a few. In March 2014, Hammeken Cellars opened a branch overseas, from which it is conquering the US market. In the last years, the company has experienced double digit growth in sales, as well as in employees. Currently Hammeken Cellars one of the most important Spanish wine exporters +1.8 million cases of Spanish wines a year, and is present in +37 countries.

That is why we have decided to collaborate with Plastic Change. They raise awareness about the consequences of the increasing plastic pollution of the oceans and the environment in general, working with documentation, information, education and solutions to place plastic pollution on the agenda of the general public, the industry and the political system.

Hammeken Cellars has a preferred hotel booking platform: Goodwings. This platform will allocate part of the cost of the reservation to Plastic Change.

Wine in moderation

Wine has evolved as part of life, culture and diet since time immemorial. As an enduring cultural symbol of fine life, the role of wine has evolved over time, changing from an important source of nutrition to a cultural complement to food and conviviality compatible with a healthy lifestyle.

The art of viticulture and winemaking has also evolved. Nevertheless, in this long historical path, one thing remains unchanged and has never been neglected; the association of wine with gastronomy, history, tradition, origin, local quality products and dignified social settings.

Cultural appreciation of wine reflects the diversity of the wine regions, the savoir-vivre and culinary habits. Quality products incite moderate consumption patterns, as it is only by savouring wine moderately and slowly that its unique complex flavours and character can be fully appreciated and enjoyed.

Trees for the future

We are increasingly aware of the need to consume and produce products that respect both our health and the place we inhabit, our planet.

With our new brand “I'M YOUR ORGANIC we design a product where the focus is to go further than a carbon neutral product and create a product that is REDUCING THE CO2 LEVEL.

Collaborating with Trees.org we are committed to planting one tree for every I'm Your Organic BiB sold. Because IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY, as producers and as consumers.
