Gaspard is the brainchild of natural wine pioneering importer and advocate Jenny Lefcourt of Jenny & Francois. They source the grapes from the Loire Valley, where a trustworthy winemaker makes the wines to match their taste. The labels are created by a talented Swedish artist based in Paris, Madlen Herrstrom, who also contributed to coming up with the name “Gaspard”. The wines are all great and reasonably priced, and it couldn’t be otherwise given how knowledgeable Jenny & Francois are about natural wine, organic farming, and natural winemaking.
