San Pelayo Imports is a boutique Spanish wine import company operated by the wife-and-husband team of Caitlyn and Andrew Mulligan. Though we represent a wide variety of projects from all corners of Spain, the philosophical through-line could be summed up as “good wines made by good people”. Many of these projects are very small (less than 30,000 bottles production per year) and many are very new, but all of them are led by people with whom we have, as the Spanish say, “buen feeling”.

Caitlyn and Andrew have both spent their entire professional careers in the wine trade; Caitlyn in restaurants, retail and distribution; and Andrew in retail, importing and distribution. In March of 2020, we decided to leave lucrative careers at an elite import and distribution company to move to Spain and build the foundation for San Pelayo Imports. The COVID-19 pandemic delayed our move, but we finally arrived to Spain in the summer of 2021. We spent the next year driving around the country tasting wine, having adventures and forging the partnerships that would become the San Pelayo Imports portfolio. We returned to the US in 2022 for the birth of our daughter, Mar Amelia. We are now based in Chicago, Illinois.
