An excellent event in which Brane participated as the exclusive winery!

Over a thousand people got to taste Brane-Cantenac 2004 during the opening gala of the 15^th French Film Festival in Hollywood last week.

It was a tremendous opportunity for Brane, which was widely appreciated by the attendees as expressed in the following e-mail received from Guylaine Vivarat, Associate Director at Colcoa:

“Thank you!

I am delighted that the evening went so well and, once again, François, the team and I would like to thank you for your participation, which made this evening a true success. Nobody could stop talking about wine!

We will send you photos and wish you a safe return to France.

Sincerely,

Guylaine"

Impressively showcased thanks to a banner and a table that had been magnificently decorated by the Colcoa team, our wine shined brightly during the festival and then throughout the week during various dinners and receptions. French film stars such as Nathalie Baye, Danny Boon, Lambert Wilson, Pierre Schoenderfer and his wife, Maurice Barthélemy, Judith Godrèche, Philippe Leguay (whose excellent film 'Les Femmes du 6ème étage' was shown at the opening gala), Sylvie Vartan and Jacqueline Bisset, and American film stars (Robert Forster, Ronald Kleiser, director of Grease among other things, etc.) appreciated the elegance and finesse of the 2004 vintage, which is ready to drink and already delicious. All of the guests also received a bottle when they arrived in their hotel rooms.

We would like to thank Wally’s, the fine-wine store in West Hollywood, and particularly Christian Navarro and Geoff Pattison, who promoted Brane throughout the week of the festival by selling it at very attractive prices, which allowed some of our guests to go and buy it for their cellars after the tasting!
