THE TEAM
Experience, Presence and Trusted Relationships in Champagne
Creating a private Champagne brand requires more than access to wine. It requires judgement, local credibility, commercial understanding and the ability to coordinate multiple moving parts with discretion and precision.
Our team combines international experience with permanent presence in the Champagne region — ensuring that every project is managed professionally from concept to completion.
Founder & Project Lead
Founder & Project Lead
Jiles Halling
I work directly with every client from the first conversation through to the completion of their initial production.
My career spans more than three decades in international wine and spirits sales, marketing and brand development. I later formalised that experience with an MBA in Luxury Brand Management at ESSEC Business School, where I graduated as a top student.
After years working globally, I chose to base myself in Champagne, building long-standing relationships with small and medium-sized producers, packaging specialists and regulatory professionals across the region.
I operate entirely independently which means I can recommend the right supplier for the right project without any obligation to any particular champagne maker. I act as your consultant and representative in Champagne — protecting your interests, managing the process, and ensuring that decisions are commercially sound as well as aesthetically refined.
Every project I undertake is approached with the same principle:
If it is worth doing, it is worth building properly.
Champagne & Client Liaison
Hélène Fauchard
Hélène strengthens the team with deep regional roots and extensive European commercial experience.
After a career in distribution and marketing in France and other European countries, she now lives full-time in the Champagne region, where her family owns vines of their own.
Her understanding of both the commercial and production sides of the industry adds valuable perspective to each project.
Hélène speaks four languages fluently, enabling smooth communication with international clients and local partners alike. Her background in wine tourism provides additional insight into brand storytelling and customer experience — particularly for clients whose projects intersect with hospitality or luxury positioning.
She also brings a discerning palate, an valuable asset during the rigorous process of identifying and selecting the right Champagne producer for each individual brand.
Finally, Hélène's own professional network within Champagne complements and expands the introductions we are able to provide, strengthening the foundations of every collaboration.
