Claudio Martins is the founder of Martins Wine Advisor, a luxury wine consultancy that serves high-net-worth clients, including royal families and major corporations. Raised in Portugal's Dão wine region, he built a career spanning every stage of the wine trade, from production through to sales and acquisition, giving him a broad, hands-on understanding of the industry.
Through his firm, Martins serves two distinct groups: wealthy collectors who need discreet, personalized advice on private cellars and collections, and newer entrants to wine investment who are looking to build their knowledge and portfolios. More recently, the business has expanded into real estate services tied to wine properties, helping clients manage acquisition, legal matters, and ongoing operations.
At the center of Martins' work is a mission to raise the international profile of Portuguese wines and establish them among the world's recognized fine wines, all while giving clients a stress-free experience when it comes to selecting, storing, and enjoying wine.
