Viticulture For The Future
Sustainability
We believe winemaking is sacred; the vines, the land they grow in, its people, traditions, culture, and history must be shared with future generations.
The winemakers we work with use an array of sustainable practices with the ultimate goal of producing the best quality wine while nurturing the local ecosystem for future generations of grape guardians.
They take care of the soil, salvage ancestral vines, and work alongside the natural diversity of the land. The resulting wines speak for themselves, and are a reflection of their hard work.
Wine For All
What is Albae?
The first wine club in Ontario entirely focused on the wines of Spain. We work directly with 65 artisanal Spanish wineries across all regions; gradually introducing over 200 wines, exclusively available through the club.
Classical, limited editions, biodynamic, low-intervention, and organic wines, made with care...for those who care.
Taste Spain
Explore With Wine
Try our monthly wine club and take your taste-buds on a trip through Spain with fresh selections each month. If monthly wine isn't your thing, we also have a basic membership so you can reserve wines when you want.
Members also get first dibs on limited editions, special events, tastings, and organized trips to meet the winemakers.
Our Roots
Family Run
Founded by Jose Manuel Aldomar, a 5th generation “gato” de Madrid and his son Igor Manuel, wine is deeply rooted in their family history.
Growing up in Spain, Jose leans on his personal experiences living and working in Madrid, Zaragoza, Jerez, and El Puerto de Santa Maria applying lessons he learnt from his father and has now passed on to Igor.
Jose and Igor personally source and import every wine, forming a close relationship with each producer.
Albae is their effort to share their Spanish culture with you.
