In this video, I share seven bottles from my cellar that tell exactly that story — producers I first encountered before they became widely recognised, and whose rise over the years has been remarkable to witness.
These aren’t investment stories. They’re cellar stories — about curiosity, patience, and the quiet satisfaction of following a producer from obscurity to global recognition.
