Andrew Sinclair, CEO of González Byass USA, highlighted the significance of this collaboration, emphasizing that Jean-Luc Colombo's commitment to sustainability and authenticity aligns with the company's values. He noted that the addition of these highly regarded wines to the González Byass USA portfolio will enhance their ability to offer consumers an even broader selection of world-class wines. Jean-Luc Colombo expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, stating that it represents an opportunity to expand their reach in the United States while continuing to share their passion for winemaking and gastronomy.

This new agreement further diversifies González Byass USA's portfolio, which already includes a selection of wines and spirits from Spain, Chile, Italy, Austria, France, Mexico, Argentina, and Portugal. The partnership, effective as of February 1, 2025, is expected to strengthen Jean-Luc Colombo's distribution and visibility in the U.S. market while reinforcing González Byass USA's position as a key importer of premium international wines.
