Located in the picturesque commune of Charly-sur-Marne, the family estate of Jean de la Fountaine has now passed through three generations of the family. The winery is now run by sisters Aline, Claire and Lise Baron. As was their Grandfather Albert Baron’s vision, the sisters work with the aim to pass on a healthy earth to future generations. And have recently become one of a select few in Champagne to gain their ‘Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne certification and “HVE” (High Value Envirommental)’. They cultivate 55 hectares of vineyard land, consisting of Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vines.

Champagne Granzamy Pere et Fils is a small, family run Champagne house located in the village of Venteuil, on the chalky hillsides of the Marne Valley. With vines situated across Epernay, Granzamy are predominantly red focussed, with the majority of their sites planted with Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir, and a small proportion of Chardonnay grapes.

The Granzamy family have been growing grapes in the Marne Valley since 1907. Now under the management of Alain Granzamy, the estate continues to produce wines of versatility, which bridge the gap between Champagne designed as an aperitif and Champagne made for food.

NEW PRODUCER

Don Sutcliffe, Managing Director of Craft Distillers and Willie Philips, former Managing Director of Macallan, have said they have always wanted to work together on a project together. A meeting of minds and passion for a product in which they have both spent their lives specialising in and a product that has been the base of their long standing friendship. Primarily they are Whisky lovers and that is what makes this project so special.

Don and Willie blend aged whiskies from selected barrels from different distilleries, which have been picked according to their individualistic nature, purity of flavour and unique characteristics. What makes them unique is that rather than sticking to prearranged styles and seeking consistency year to year, The Exceptional Whisky Company will offer unique whiskies upon each release, all of which will be determined by their own qualitative and stylistic distinction.

NEW PRODUCER

The Sabatini family estate is located in the stunning province of Arezzo, Tuscany. Father Enrico Sabatini, his two sons, Niccolò and Ugo and cousin Filippo, were inspired by their summers at the family estate, where sun down would be marked by an aperitivo G&T and a stroll through the villas picturesque gardens. And so, they decided to create a Gin which complied with the same rules and method of the ever popular London Dry Gin, yet which had aromas and flavours that would transport them back to Tuscany! Thus wherever the world would take them, no matter how far, they would always be connected. This unique product is made using botanicals picked from the estates gardens, chosen because they represent the quintessential flavours of Tuscany; Tuscan Juniper, Coriander, Sage, Wild Fennel, Olive leaves, Lemon Verbena, Orris, Thyme and Lavender.
