The global wine and Champagne market is growing substantially, driven by consumer interest in premium products, luxury experiences and investment in fine wines. The high-end segment — Champagnes from houses such as Dom Pérignon and Krug, and wines such as Screaming Eagle and Château Lafite Rothschild — sees significant demand from both traditional markets and emerging regions.

Wine Way’s target customers include individual investors, wine funds, institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals seeking diversification and long-term investment potential. With a track record of successful wine sales and investments, the company is positioned to attract a broad client base in this market.

Wine Way is raising EUR 50,000 of working capital in one round, with a repayment term of 9 months. Most of the funds go to purchasing additional stocks of top-tier wines and Champagnes from prestigious producers worldwide.

To secure the financing, Wine Way OÜ offers its expanding wine and Champagne stock as collateral; the company projects the value of this stock to appreciate by 25–30% a year. It is also willing to use its existing wine inventory, valued at over EUR 500,000, as supplementary collateral.

Wine Way OÜ, a distinguished name in the alcoholic beverage market since 2008, runs two prime retail locations in Tallinn and a comprehensive online store with reliable delivery. It serves a diverse clientele of local residents, tourists, wine enthusiasts and collectors, with a range that includes a wide array of wines, Champagnes, wine accessories and gourmet foods.

The company has built a reputation as both a retail and a wholesale supplier. It supplies top-tier wines and Champagnes to esteemed restaurants, luxury hotels and specialised wine departments, and works with gourmet food stores, upscale markets and dedicated wine retailers, tailoring the selection to each partner’s clientele and brand positioning. Efficient logistics and reliable supply chains keep deliveries prompt, helping wholesale clients maintain optimal stock levels.

To capitalise on growing demand and strengthen its position in the premium segment, Wine Way aims to acquire a substantial stock of renowned wines and Champagnes from prestigious producers, including Jacques Selosse, Perrier-Jouët, Krug, Moët & Chandon, Dom Pérignon, Veuve Clicquot, Screaming Eagle and Château Lafite Rothschild. The move is designed to meet the growing needs of both retail and wholesale customers — high-end restaurants, hotels, gourmet stores and specialty wine shops — and to attract a more diverse customer base in the high-end wine and Champagne market.
