Our story
It all began with a glass
Every family has a story worth telling.
In August 2016 a wine with no name was born, made with passion and tradition for the family. Served on intimate evenings, it became the soul of every gathering.
In his honor
Don Fernando
Fernando Manrique Suárez Paternina
A man admired throughout the Alto Sinú. Visionary and enterprising, one of those who do things with their hands and with patience, he left his family an indelible legacy: the value of the land, of one’s word and of a shared table.
When the townspeople named that wine with no name, they chose his. Every bottle that carries his name is our way of thanking him.
“Our wines carry his name in honor of a man who taught us that tradition is honored by sharing it.”The Don Fernando family

A story to be lived
A wine with no name
Made at home to share with family, corozo wine became the symbol of togetherness and celebration at every gathering.
The town gave it a name
It was the people who named it: “Don Fernando”, a name that carried poise, elegance and serenity. A tribute to grandfather, Fernando Manrique Suárez Paternina, a visionary and enterprising man. That year, the first 200 bottles sold out in less than a month.
The tradition grew
Production reached 22,000 liters, our best year of sales. Refinement became an art and our processes evolved with imported technology, without losing the essence of always.
The story continues
From Tierralta, Córdoba, Don Fernando Artesanos del Vino brings nine wines and one tradition to tables, hotels and shops across Colombia.
The emblem
One symbol. One land. One legacy.
We wanted an emblem that said everything at a single glance. The eagle, an icon deeply rooted in Córdoba’s culture, intertwines with the wine glass: the union of the land and the art of winemaking.
