Halfpenny Green - Staffordshire (England)
Halfpenny Green Vineyards were established by Martin Vickers in 1983 – the same year that we came into being – and we were their first trade account. A lot of wine has flowed under the bridge since then and they have now become a major Midlands vineyard operation with state-of-the-art winery in Bobbington in the south of the county. Believe me, they offer some of the best value English wines in the country! They also make two excellent ‘champagne-method’ sparkling wines.

Bodegas Fernando de Castilla is located in the historic centre of Jerez. Its story began with the aristocratic Andrada-Vanderwilde family, who for two centuries provided grapes and wine for the production of sherry in the area. In 1999 Jan Pettersen, a Norwegian with 15 years experience at Osborne, bought the company and also acquired a neighbouring almacenista, José Bustamente. He also formed a partnership with a local grape grower – to ensure consistent supply of high quality grapes – unusual for the smaller bodegas, who usually have to rely on co-operatives. He decided to focus entirely on high-end, complex sherries - in the process upgrading the bodega to one of the most interesting and highly regarded of the small independent sherry houses in Jerez.
