Emeric Sauty de Chalon and Fabien Hyon are the senior 'management' team of 1855 (1855.com, 1855.con). Thierry Maincent was an administrateur and one of the directeur général délégués until he resigned his posts for personal reasons on 30th September 2010. Businessman Jean-Pierre Meyers, who is on the boards of L'Oreal and Nestlé, is a long-term shareholder of 1855.

Detail from the gates@Latour – will these grapes ripen before 1855 delivers all of its customers' en primeurs?

Château Lafite: one of many wines not delivered by 1855

My new post on Les 5 du Vin: 

'On 27th July I posted a snippet of news about 1855.com on Jim’s Loire. It attracted this comment: “This story will never end ... “
Although it is certainly true that 1855 has been defrauding some of its en primeur Bordeaux customers for far too long, it is nonsense to suggest that this saga couldn’t be brought to a speedy and abrupt end.
