About the Wines
Bacchus Wines ( PLDC ) offer beautiful wines to private clients and independent outlets . Pierre-Loup DeCam ’ s mission is to continue bringing the wines of the Parenchère , in eastern Bordeaux , among a few other appellations , to the UK market .
CardsSafe Ltd . is pleased to announce a new partnership with wine broker and aficionado Pierre- Loup DeCam , founder of Bacchus Wines ( PLDC ).
CardsSafe and Pierre-Loup are thrilled to be working together to bring the joyful wines of Parenchère in eastern Bordeaux to independent restaurants , pubs and bars in the UK .
For all the negatives the last two years have brought the hospitality industry , a lot of good has blossomed from visionary individuals in the field . In 2019 , after decades of business together , an idea struck . Could CardsSafe and Pierre-Loup ’ s wine brokerage business , Bacchus Wines ( PLDC ), based in Surrey , Hampshire , collaborate in a way to benefit their mutual customers ?
The majority of the wines hail from the globally award-winning Château de Parenchère . Although the Chateau dates back to 1570 and has a long and well-established history in viticulture , the estate now spans 188 hectares ( 463 acres ), of which 169 acres are dedicated to vines .
Raphael Gazaniol renovated the Chateau in 1958 on his return from Morocco . Later it was further developed by his son Jean . Pierre-Loup ’ s family also moved back from Morocco to the area , in the 1960s , and the teen boys grew up together . Lifelong friends , Pierre-Loup and Jean , have been close in business and life for over 50 years , the relationship based on respect , trust and the love of good wine .
The answer was , yes , they can !
“ I am thrilled at the prospect of a great potential synergy for the expansion of the business by working in collaboration with CardsSafe ,” explains Pierre-Loup .
How it all began
Pierre-Loup and Trond Rornes , Director of CardsSafe , met years back when Pierre-Loup was the landlord of a 500-year-old pub in Surrey . CardsSafe was first installed in the iconic public house in 2008 , with additional units added quickly . He and his team saw immediately the benefits of the CardsSafe system ,
