Supporting Crystal Wine Group · Growing Chardonnay · Pouring Stories
I didn't set out to become a champagne person. It happened the way most meaningful things do — gradually, then all at once. The first time a glass of real grower champagne landed in my hand, something clicked. Not just the bubbles. The story behind them.
Today, I support Crystal Wine Group — a community built around the belief that great wine deserves great people. Whether it's sourcing, introducing, or simply sharing, the mission stays the same: bring the right bottle to the right table.
At Les Clefs de Cristal Yangjae, we've built a space where champagne doesn't need a special occasion. Come as you are, open something interesting, and let the wine do the talking.
And at Bau Vineyard, I'm doing something I never imagined — growing Chardonnay on Korean soil. The vines are young, the ambition is not. Every season teaches something new about patience and terroir.
"Champagne isn't about celebration.
Celebration is about champagne."
— Champagne Uncle
