The experience behind CORE

CORE brings together two complementary professional backgrounds built across different stages of the same business — from vineyard and winery operations to winemaking, technology, product and market.

Mihai Dumitru-Paverman — Head Winemaker & General Manager CORE Advisory

Mihai Dumitru-Paverman

Head Winemaker & General ManagerWinemaking, technology and market

Direct experience in winemaking, winery design, development and implementation, as well as consultative sales of technological equipment and solutions for viticulture and winemaking.

His commercial experience complements this technical background through work in wine marketing, wine sales, evaluation, sommellerie and product presentation. Together, these areas provide a perspective across the full journey of wine — from technological and production decisions to how the product is developed, presented and brought to market.

More than 15 years of professional experience in viticulture and winemaking, complemented by a family background spanning three generations of winegrowers and winemakers in the Panciu area.

His experience covers vineyard management, winery management and organisation, wine-sector legislation and compliance, the administrative realities of operating a winery, and wine sales. His perspective is grounded both in management and in direct exposure to the day-to-day realities of a winegrowing and winemaking operation.

Two complementary perspectives. One working system.

Together, we cover the decisions that connect vineyard to wine, winery to product, and product to market.

Perspective

Why we created CORE

We have worked across different stages of the same business — from the vineyard and winery management to winemaking, technology, product, marketing and sales.

Experience has shown us that a winery’s challenges rarely exist in isolation. A decision in the vineyard shapes the wine. The winery’s configuration determines production efficiency. Product, brand and sales must be built on the same coherent logic.

Hence CORE Advisory: an integrated approach, from vineyard to market.
Who we help

Who we help

We work with wine projects at different stages of development, where critical decisions carry real business consequences.

  • New wineries & investors

    Projects that need to make the right technical, operational and commercial decisions from the very beginning.

  • Small and medium wineries

    Businesses that need direction, structure and specialist support without having every competence in-house.

  • Wineries undergoing restructuring

    Projects facing technical, operational, portfolio or commercial challenges.

Competencies

Five competencies. One direction.

CORE connects the required competencies across the entire wine-business journey and intervenes either at specific stages or in an integrated capacity, depending on the project.

All five competencies work together toward the same objective: a coherent project prepared to operate effectively in the market.
Method

From problem to execution.

Four clear stages. Every project follows the same disciplined process — calibrated to reality.

  1. Diagnose

    We understand the real situation before proposing solutions.

  2. Prioritise

    We separate critical problems from those that can wait.

  3. Build

    We turn decisions into plans, protocols, procedures and clear directions.

  4. Execute

    We stay connected to implementation and adjust when reality requires it.

Projects built around real problems.

Differentiator

Technical decisions must work in business too.

CORE combines technical expertise with operational and commercial understanding.

We do not treat vineyard, winemaking, winery operations, product and brand as independent silos.

We connect them precisely where one decision directly impacts the next.

We work inside active projects, not in theoretical models.

Do you have a new project or a challenge that can no longer be treated in isolation?
