Vins Descombe is a family owned company since four generations.

The company has been founded by François Descombe in 1905. With the emergence of motor vehicles steadily replacing horse drawn transports, he developed a wine transport activity.

After 35 years of intense relationship with the wine world and the vintners and under the initiative of Florent Descombe, Vins Descombe has started a new activity: the trading and packaging of french wines (216-litre-barrels, 110 litre-barrels, with 55-litre-barrels). The customers were bars, hotels and restaurants.

During the sixties and seventies the arrival of television changed the habits: instead of going to the bar and discuss while having a glass of wine, people remained at home watching TV.

François Descombe, aware of the changes, adapted and turned to a new clientele: private consumers. He offered wines in packagings adapted to their needs: the 30-litre cubic plastic container appeared then.

In order to meet the needs of its customers (connoisseurs, clubs, groups of friends and organizations), Vins Descombe company has developed its know-how to create French Wines (belding wines from the main french wine region).

Under the leadership of Florent, representing the fourth generation of managing directors, this vast knowledge about wine, naturally led Vins Descombe to become a wine trader for french A.O.C.-wines from famous wine regions.

In order to satisfy the demand of his customers, in 2003 Florent Descombe diversified his packagings: in addition to the bottle and the cubic plastic containers he created the 10-litre-Bag-in Box and later the 3-litre-Bag-in Box.

Vins Descombe is known everywhere in France..... so why not discover Vins Descombe abroad.

It first started with the opening of a shop in Belgium in 2004 and the development of sales in the far east.

Vins Descombe has focused on the asian market: opening a first French wine shop in Shanghai in 2007, in Viêt Nam and Kyrgyztan as an importer and distributor of wine and spirits.

Thousands of wine lovers from France and elsewhere share with Vins Descombe the same passion for quality wines.
