About Us

This is the much-admired personal winemaking project of Justin and Amanda Howard-Sneyd, who own a few hectares of vines around the town of Maury in the Roussillon region.

We make heartbreakingly small batches of beautifully bold wine in the wild South of France.
It’s not in the shops*. And most of it goes to our Wine Club Members.

Our Vision:

A world where wine increases human happiness and thriving.

Our Mission:

Bringing wine to life by connecting people to our world through immersion, flavour and fun.

Our Manifesto:

• We exist to make you happy by making delicious wine.
• We connect you to where it is grown and how it is made.
• We try to do this in a way that makes it interesting, and sometimes, we flatter ourselves, entertaining. And maybe even, in our best moments, amusing.
• We may like to joke around and make poor bee-related puns, but we are deadly serious about making the best wine that we can.
• We are exploring how we can farm our land in a way that encourages life, and has a positive impact on our planet. We are a long way from good enough, but we are learning all the time.
• We believe that wine is a vehicle for happiness. It loosens the tongue, and sometimes the clothing. (You can’t drink wine properly while wearing a tie)
• We celebrate the way wine brings people together.
  Many of the best ideas crystallise over a great bottle shared with a good friend.
• We are imperfectly, relentlessly human.
  Perfection isn’t our goal – connection is.
• Everyone’s welcome. No-one’s left behind.

• Welcome to our World!
