You know how mom used to say she loved all her kids equally, but you always suspected she wasn't being completely honest... Through our work with the New York wine industry, Born Collective has come to equally love all the winemaking regions of our great state. But we do feel a special closeness—in proximity of course—to Seneca Lake. As a Rochester-based agency, we are especially excited and proud to be working with the Seneca Lake Wine Trail to help their brand reflect the remarkable place it is and the even more remarkable wines they make. But we don't want to cause any rivalries or hard feelings, so we're happy to do the same for any other NY wine siblings. We promise not to dress you in matching outfits.

Another sensational arrival at "Italian wine collector" Just arrived a DOM PERIGNON 1964!!! Dom Perignon Champagne is probably the best-known bubble in the world, named after the Benedictine monk intimately linked to the origins of Champagne itself. It was marketed in 1936 by Robert-Jean de Vogue with the idea of creating a luxury Champagne and, to do so, he enclosed the family Moet 1921 Reserve in the historic bottle. The first "real" Dom Perignon harvest will arrive in 1947. Today this historic Champagne is produced only with its own Grand Cru grapes and, to boast the label, must guarantee an aging potential of at least 30 years. From the olfactory approach, Dom Perignon is intense, with the typical minerality of the maison in the foreground accompanied by smoky nuances. The notes of the Chardonnay also slowly reveal themselves, pleasantly buttery: in short, it is immediately defined as a great Champagne, capable of enhancing the typicality of the label. Conceptually, Dom Pérignon only exists as a vintage. Dom Pérignon Vintage champagne is born from an extremely rigorous selection of the best terroirs of Champagne. Depending on the quality of the vintage, Dom Pérignon chooses to declare the vintage or not. In line with its ideals, Dom Pérignon Vintage champagne reveals itself after more than 8 years of processing and rest in the cellar. Dom Perignon Champagne is always very balanced between the finesse of the bubble, the roundness of the body and the richness of the taste, always noble and never over the top. A historically high-level Champagne, which never ceases to amaze despite the passing of the harvests. For any information or price list contact me privately

🍾 Our latest champagne investment has just sold out! It's the last day of the year. Some drink champagne, some invest in it, and some do both! Have you ever wondered why we drink champagne on New Year’s Eve? The lavishness of champagne dates back to the 16th century. Only the elite drank champagne at the time, historian Kolleen Guy wrote in her book about the wine's history. It was even the drink of choice for Louis XIV. Champagne still lives up to it's legacy. The Champagne market accounted for US$ 7.3 billion in 2022 and is estimated to be US$ 12.5 billion by 2032 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 5.2%. A 500 EUR investment in our most recent Louis Roederer Cristal Rosé 2012 Magnum is expected to be worth approximately 1,049 EUR in 9 years. 🚀 Did you invest?

Traveling up and down Napa Valley, engaging deeply with each business, has offered me an unparalleled perspective on the region. I've connected personally with the people behind the counters, owners, and brand managers, discussing the intricacies of their trade, what thrives and what falters. This journey has not only been eye-opening but has also crystallized a vital truth about the valley: the power of experiences. Napa Valley is evolving, with a clear shift in consumer interest from the legacy and labels of wineries to the unique experiences they can provide. While traditional patrons have their favored haunts, a new, younger generation seeks introduction to the valley through fresh, dynamic engagements that promise not just a taste, but a story worth sharing on platforms like Instagram and TikTok. It's evident that while the quality of wine remains crucial—something Napa Valley wineries consistently excel in—it's the memorable experiences that truly resonate and sell the wine. These experiences are the bridge connecting new, younger demographics to the timeless appeal of Napa, ensuring the legacy of these wineries continues to flourish. In today's market, offering an unforgettable experience alongside a great product is key to attracting and retaining lifelong consumers.

Champagne retains its crown. When it comes to glitz and glamour, few things represent celebration quite like Champagne. As we head into the Christmas rally, the top cuvées might well have come down in price recently, but certainly not in quality, which means there are some comparative bargains to be had even among the crème de la crème. This year's most expensive Champagnes are – unsurprisingly – dominated by the big names with their various prestige cuvées: Dom Perignon heads the list, followed by Krug, James Bond’s favourite Bollinger, Louis Roederer Cristal, and Jacques Selosse. Salon, Taittinger and Perrier Jouet also feature regularly for us. Although belts have undoubtedly tightened, it's fair to say that savvy investors looking for opportunities for growth will benefit from the current market conditions and, much like the British monarchy, it will take a great deal more to knock Champagne's crown. Champagne as a region is our best performing market and the ideal starting point for most investors. To find out more please get in touch.

Doing wine shots ... Sounds like fun - and it is, especially with a camera in hand! I was contacted to create some high quality images for a distributor of Lion & Dove wine. This set was for the sweet wines. In this video, you see me shooting images for white background e-commerce shots. I also created some lifestyle setting for these, as well as e-commerce and lifestyle settings for their collection of reds. Definitely looking to shoot more beer, wine & liquor imagery. If you know anyone who owns a brewery, winery or distillery - I'd love to get an introduction! #beveragephotography #winephotography #beverageindustry

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... 😉 Recently A good friend of mine raised an exiting question about Champagne, which gave some food for thought. What is perceived to be the top 5 Champagnes worldwide? It is a difficult question and I believe, after contemplating, there is no right or wrong answer. It lies in a number of things, namely price, exclusivity or critic’s choices... However you could also go with a different approach. If to choose on what is exclusive and therefore expensive, some marketing comes into play. A great example is ‘Ace of Spades’! Jay-Z officially purchased Armand de Brignac in November 2014. Since the celebrity’s acquisition, the popularity of the brand has skyrocketed! The bottles do have the bling factor, however the quality of the champagne itself is under constant scrutiny. If size does matter its 30 liter Midas secured its place on the market as the one and only! The famous champagne houses have more funds to market their sparkly elixir, and thus are often perceived as ‘better’ champagnes. For me, consistency and complexity is key in tasting champagne. Since the drink itself means celebration, I would like to taste similarities in my new milestone’s and remember the old whenever we pop a bottle. I close my eyes, take the first sip.. and memories flow.. My personal top 5 is this: 1. Krug Clos du Mesnil 2000 or Krug in general 2. Ruinart ‘Blancs des Blancs’ 3. Bollinger La Grande Année 2007 4. Billecart-Salmon Rosé 5. Dom Perignon 1998 On my bucket list I have untried treasures: 1. Salon Champagne 1947 2. Salon Cuvée ‘S’ Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs 2002 What is your Top 5 of Champagnes? 🥂 As John Maynard Keynes said: “My only regret in life is that I didn’t drink enough Champagne.” 🍾 #Champagne #Maynard #BlancdeBlancs #Krug #BollingerLaGrandeAnnée2007 #SalonChampagne1947 #Jay-Z #BestChampagne #love #passion #wine #winery #wineyard

Always wondered why we associate 'celebration' with 'champagne'? This is probably it 😙 → The tradition of drinking champagne to mark celebrations originated in the royal courts of Europe prior to 1789, where the expensive drink was viewed as a status symbol 🆒 → Like so many iconic products, the evolution of Champagne is as much about marketing as it is about the drink itself. The big Champagne houses began to set up camp in the region in the 18th century: Moët et Chandon, Piper-Heidsieck, Louis Roederer, Veuve Clicquot and Tattinger were among the first. These firms built on Champagne’s growing reputation as a drink of status and turned it into the drink of celebration. They took samples of their wines to Europe’s various Royal courts to win their patronage. - They were early adopters of 'celebrity endorsement' - getting well-known figures like music-hall star George Leybourne to promote their products, which he did to enduring effect by penning the song Champagne Charlie in 1866. → At the end of the First World War, Winston Churchill famously said “Remember gentlemen, it’s not just France we’re fighting for, it’s Champagne.” F. Scott Fitzgerald made Champagne synonymous with the Roaring Twenties in The Great Gatsby and Twentieth Century icons like Marilyn Monroe, Bridget Bardot and Coco Chanel made Champagne a part of their legends by either allegedly bathing in it (Monroe) or uttering bon mots about it (Bardot and Chanel, the latter of whom said “I only drink Champagne on two occasions, when I am in love, or when I am not”) → Isn't it amazing that Nothing has been able to dull the reputation of Champagne – it has survived two world wars (the location of the Champagne region meant its vineyards were in the heart of the action), the Great Depression and numerous recessions since? 🍷 #champagne #history #linkedintopvoice #linkedinnews #linkedinghostwriter #marketingdigital #advertising #celebration #friendship #alcohol #winetastings

Client Development Director at System1 Research | Providing effectiveness evidence that gives marketers confidence
It’s probably been long enough since Cannes now. Your head’s stopped pounding, you’ve stopped swaying from all the yatchs (and possibly other factors)… so… let’s talk about wine ! 🍷 What Cannes wine teach us about behaviour? 🍷 Wine’s baffling… but there are some (helpful?) generalisations to point out: 🏛 Old wine: Bottles with gold leaf and vineyard pencil outlines. Chosen via grape, region, year. Those choice mechanics are born out of strict production laws for small independent European vineyards, all fighting mother nature for the perfect yield (which varies year on year). 🏛 🏢 New Wine: Colourful labels with criminals, pigs etc. Chosen via brand. Those choice mechanics are born out of huge sprawling US and Southern Hemisphere vineyards, able to mechanise and standardise, yielding consistency but lacking heritage. 🏢 That’s a very short summary but the key point is that wine is confusing. So, if the above’s confusing, good. Some people pride themselves on their wine knowledge, most just drink it. As a category full of complexity, wine can help illustrate some rules of thumb we use when there’s just too much info to weigh up for the ‘best’ choice… Or you ‘glass half full’ or ‘glass half empty’ about the complexities of choice? Depends how you look at it… 🍷 People often choose the second cheapest wine: Choices in the ‘middle’ often feel ‘safe’. 🍷 Price impacts drinking enjoyment: Pricing impact expectations & experiences. 🍷 Music nudges choice: Environmental cues are powerful - in store, in ads, in general. **Psychology is having a replication crisis. So is old wine. These are designed to spark thought and discussion, not to be taken as grapey gospel. Don’t @ me.** Andrew Tindall Jon Evans James Gregory James Eyton-Jones Sara Zanjani Devi Upadhyaya Johan ten Houten Chiara Manco Nick Williamson Genevieve Norris Freddie Laughton Doug Keep Estefania Larden Tim Petersen Mike Troy Tom Brand Axelle Brillouet-Latecka Laurent Calvayrac Kathy Rienzo Alex Banks Matt Owens Esther Robinson Robyn Di Cesare Steve Wood Hannah Rodrigues Jillian Schaefer #marketing #advertising #behaviour
