Significant London retail listing for Leonardslee Family Vineyards
Leonardslee Family Vineyards is pleased to announce that it has secured a significant listing
with Nicolas UK, with all three wines available in 5 of its prime retail location London stores.
This is not only a significant listing for Leonardslee but for the English Sparkling wine sector
as a whole, to achieve a multi SKU listing with a specialist French retailer. Nicolas UK is well-known
for its strong domestic range of wines, with a smaller portfolio from the rest of the
world.
Nicolas UK will be stocking all three Leonardslee wines which are all made by traditional
method: LEONARDSLEE Blanc de Blancs 2020 (RSP:£60), LEONARDSLEE Brut Reserve 2021
(RSP: £45) and LEONARDSLEE Brut Rosé 2021 (RSP: £45).
The wines go into store with immediate effect, ready for the crucial last two weeks of
Christmas trading. The Canary Wharf shop with its prime location and customer base will also
be holding an afternoon of in store tastings on December 12th, hosted by Leonardslee
Family Vineyards and supported by an impressive 55” video wall which will highlight the
Leonardslee estate.
The new listings will be supported into the new year with more winemaker tastings
scheduled, and a London pop-up planned in conjunction with chef Jean Delport from
Interlude, Leonardslee’s own Michelin Star and Michelin Green Star restaurant.
Penny Streeter OBE, owner of Leonardslee Family Vineyards comments: “We are so happy
and proud of this listing, such a huge step for us and English Sparkling wine to receive
recognition from Nicolas for the quality of our wines. We have achieved so much in such a
short time since our launch and we are delighted to be able to support and work with Nicolas
going forward.”
Benoit Thouvenin, Managing Director for NICOLAS UK, concludes: “Nicolas UK is proud to be
able to offer London’s fine wine lovers one of the finest achievements when we talk about
sparkling wine produced in the UK. The very high quality deserves its place on our shelves
and we are delighted to be the first to bring Leonardslee into the heart of London.”
