Two Dutch Guys Selling Catalan Wine?
It all started with one bottle of wine
This story begins two years ago with a dinner in Tossa de Mar where the waiter let us taste the wine Sasserra.
The funny thing is that we normally always order red wine, but the paella asked for a white wine, so why not?
Getting to know Sasserra
He came to the table with a black bottle with gold Arabic letters. We tasted the wine, looked into each other's eyes and we shouted something along the lines of: Oh my God! This is fantastic!
Sasserra has a golden color. The taste is earthy, floral and has something of Mediterranean herbs, but at the same time also nutty and something between honey and truffle. We were completely blown away by the complexity of the wine and for the rest of the dinner we did nothing but talk about that wine in that mysterious black bottle.
The aha moment
At the time, we were already looking for a way to start our own business in something we were both passionate about. Once at home we realized that there are so many people in the Netherlands who could also enjoy that wine, but it is nowhere to be found!
That's when our mission began to find exceptional winemakers in Catalonia and to make a selection of their best wines to bring to the Netherlands.
Proud of Catalan wine
All our wines come from a family winery. In each of them, tradition, quality and local grape varieties are the reasons that make them arguably the best wines you've ever tasted.
And that's why we now sell wine. We simply couldn't keep them to ourselves. We, Jip and Job, invite you to discover Tinc Set's best-selling collection and be as moved as we were that evening in Tossa de Mar.
It's great that you've come this far
