On relationships and resilience. | “The producers’ historical relationships with importers from around the world combined with limited volumes makes getting a foot in the door very challenging. We, for instance, visited a certain producer every year for seven years before they finally agreed to make some wine available to Great Domaines on an annual basis.”-Derek Kilpin of Great Domaines | A day in the life of a Wine Buyer and Merchant, for Wineland Magazine South Africa | http://www.wineland.co.za/a-day-in-the-life-of-a-wine-buyer-and-merchant/ | Thank you @wandaaugustyn @winelandmedia @jgmrichter @greatdomaines @derekkilpin | #wineland #winelandsa #winelandmedia #tasteletssee #winecareers #southafrica #visitwinelands #visitsawinelands #amwriting #Hospitality #sommelier #Johannesburg #Joburg #May #WineBuyer #WineMerchant #GreatDomaines #GreatDomainesSA #Melrose (at Great Domaines)

Napoleon once declared: "I could not live without Champagne - in victory I deserve it, in defeat, I need it." | Champagne Lanson White Label Sec Non-Vintage effervesces with that winning feeling. The same blend as the Black Label (35% Chardonnay, 50% Pinot Noir and 15% Pinot Meunier), with a noteworthy exception- 28g of dosage. This provides mint lead, orange peel and white peach aromas. Perfect for those hot summer nights, with a sprig of mint and plenty to celebrate. | #ChampagneLanson #TasteLetsSee #Champagne #Lanson #Johannesburg #GreatDomaines #Africa #SouthAfrica #France #Chardonnay #PinotNoir #PetitMeunier #sparklingwine #Brut #ClosLanson #WineLovers #Vino #Joburg #DrySec (at Great Domaines)

A very good year. | "Some particularly good years give rise to vintage blends. Vintage Champagnes are produced with grapes that are all from the same year and must be left to age for at least three years in the cellars... Lanson vintages are aged for at least five years, sometimes more."- @champagnelanson | Lanson Gold Label Vintage Brut, 2008. With sugar and acidity in perfect balance, this Champagne exhibits notes of honey, almonds, citrus fruit and candied apple. A blend of 53% Pinot Noir and 47% Chardonnay from Avize, Le-Mesnil-sur-Oger, Ay, Verzenay and Bouzy. This effervescent gastronomic wine gives rise to celebration in and of itself. | #ChampagneLanson #TasteLetsSee #Champagne #Lanson #Johannesburg #GreatDomaines #SouthAfrica #France #Chardonnay #PinotNoir #vintagechampagne #sparklingwine #Brut #ClosLanson #WineLovers #Vino #Joburg (at Great Domaines)
