When it comes to purchasing wine, provenance is of upmost importance. A wine’s history, where it’s sourced from and how it’s been stored, can have an enormous influence on the eventual enjoyment it gives. At Justerini & Brooks we can trace nearly every case back to the domaine, estate or Chateau it originally came from - we ship from over 200 wine producers throughout the world. Wines not bought directly from the vineyard are either sourced from trusted suppliers with whom we share the same philosophy and rigour in buying or from our own network of Cellarers customers. These customers’ wines are stored in prime conditions in Octavian Corsham and, in the vast majority of cases, have been stored by us since the wine was first shipped.

We feel it is equally important to our customers that the case they buy and is put into storage for them is exactly the same as the case they take out and have delivered. This may sound simple yet we believe we are unique in our measures to ensure this.

The idea is not complicated; create a system where every case is independent; thereby ensuring a trail of ownership; and peace of mind for every customer.
