Their story:
The business is currently run by Jonathan & Suzie Sutton who took over from Jonathan’s late father Michael in 2016. He had set up the business having retired from farming in 1985 with the help and encouragement of his great friend Ronnie Hicks, a Master of Wine.
Jonathan & Suzie have expanded the range of wines considerably, again with a Master of Wine, Anthony Barne, to guide them in their selections. They have also introduced Wine Events and social evenings in collaboration with local chefs.
Over the years Michael and his wife Juliet often travelled through Europe and Australia to meet the wine producers and built-up lifelong relationships with them and their wines. Jonathan & Suzie have continued this research visiting South Africa and many areas of France. They have much enthusiasm to travel widely in the future. Michael was keen that the customer could totally trust the quality and provenance of the wines on offer and that legacy remains today.
