Terroir Vinalis is a French-wine trader dedicated exclusively to Brazilian distributors. Direct sourcing at the producer, international logistics, full import and access to cellar rarities.
Between the French producer and the Brazilian distributor, there is work to be done. Sourcing, negotiation, logistics, import. Terroir Vinalis was built to do that work, and do it well.
Born and raised in Ceará, I grew up between the strong Northeastern sun and a generous table. Wine was rare, almost mythical — more by the choice of those who distributed it than for lack of a market.
I moved to France in 2012. It was in Paris, over dinners and weekends out of the city, that I discovered what lay inside a bottle.
Years later, I came to live in the canton of Vaud. The Lavaux vineyards began minutes from home. Burgundy, three hours away by car. I started drinking with new eyes.
Brazil was missing a B2B trader with a foot on both sides of the Atlantic — one who negotiates directly in France and delivers turnkey to the distributor. Terroir Vinalis was born in May.
We operate between Lausanne and Fortaleza. In France, direct sourcing and relationships with private cellars. In Brazil, with CNPJ and MAPA registration, the full import through to the distributor’s warehouse.
We go to the domaine in person. Volume, price and exclusivity negotiated directly with the producer — no brokers.
Cold-room consolidation in Europe, export documentation, insurance and refrigerated transport to the port.
Customs clearance at Pecém or Suape, national invoice and warehouse delivery. The bottle arrives ready for the distributor’s operation.
The price the distributor gets reflects what leaves the domaine — not the sum of five markups.
Old vintages only make sense with a documented chain of custody and provenance traceable since the initial sale.
We deliver the bottle ready for them to act. We don’t compete with their operation, we don’t go to the restaurant or the end consumer.
European base. Sourcing, negotiation and logistics consolidation start here. A few hours from Bourgogne, Champagne, Alsace and Loire.
Where the wines are negotiated.
Brazilian base, with active CNPJ and issued MAPA registration. We handle the full import through to delivery at the partner distributor’s warehouse.
