conte grand winery

Winetrust is the exclusive distributor of Conte-Grand’s wines from Argentina in the US. Each wine offers a delightful experience for our clients who appreciate fine wines. This partnership brings Argentina's wine culture to the US with a diverse selection of high-quality wines.

The Conte-Grand winery was founded in 1935 by a family who chose to establish their business in San Juan, Argentina. This family has been closely linked to the world of wine from its beginnings to the present day, working with passion and quality in the production of their products.

One of the main attributes that the winery aims to distinguish through its brand is the family name, which conveys the tradition that has been maintained through all generations when it comes to the production of high-quality wines.

Currently, the winery sources its production from the Tulum, Calingasta, and Ullum Valleys in San Juan, Argentina.
