Producers

Vinco represents three producers in the United Kingdom. Representing a house is not the same as stocking it: we hold the allocation, we place it, and we answer for it. The list below is short on purpose, and it is meant to stay that way.

Who we represent

Bass Phillip

South Gippsland, Victoria. Pinot Noir grown on the coolest, wettest corner of mainland Australia, dry farmed and biodynamically managed at yields most growers would call a mistake. Very little of it ever leaves the country.

Croix de Brully

Burgundy. A patchwork domaine of fourteen hectares, gathered plot by plot since 1992 and running from the Côte Chalonnaise up into the Côte de Nuits. The average vine is around fifty years old and everything is estate grown.

Vigne Comte de Chapelle

Gevrey-Chambertin. An historic domaine under the direction of Jean-Marie Fourrier, on plantings dating back to the 1930s. No fining, no filtration, and allocations that are the tightest of the three.

What representation means

For a producer, it means one point of contact in the UK, an allocation placed with collectors and restaurants rather than pushed at whoever will take it, and an honest account of where every case went.

For a buyer, it means the wine comes from us rather than through three sets of hands, so its provenance is a fact rather than a claim, and members see each release before it reaches the open list.

Buying from these houses

Current stock from all three sits on the list alongside everything else. Where a wine is allocated rather than available, the producer's own page says so and takes an enquiry.

Producers looking for UK representation

We take on very few, and only where we can sell the wine properly rather than merely list it. If that is you, write to andrew@vincowines.com with what you make and how much of it comes to the UK today.
