1855 (1855.com): Jim's Loire offers new service (cont)

Château Duhart-Milon (owned by Domaines Barons de Rothschild)

En primeur ordered from 1855 and known to be outstanding: 

30 bottles of 2005

24 bottles of 2006 plus 3 magnums

Château Duhart-Milon

Emeric Sauty de Chalon, Thierry Maincent* and Fabien Hyon are the senior 'management' team of 1855 (1855.com, 1855.con). Businessman Jean-Pierre Meyers, who is on the boards of L'Oreal and Nestlé, is a long-term shareholder of 1855. 1855 is a probationary member of Le Fevadsee also.


Given how long some of 1855's customers have to wait for their wine, this sepia effect may be more appropriate!

* Maincent resigned as administrateur and as a directeur général délégué on 30th September 2010 for personal reasons.
