After 35 amazing years with us, last month we said a fond farewell to Richard Lashbrook MW, as he moved from his current role to become Director Emeritus, retiring from all executive functions.

“I began my career in banking, with Coutts & Co, joined the wine trade in 1987 and have been with Thorman Hunt since 1990. I became a director in 1997.

I always enjoyed the dual roles of buying (with particular responsibilities for Burgundy and California) and sales – largely to the London on-trade and independent retailers.”

We thank Richard for his exceptional contributions and his continued friendship, as we wish him all the best in this new chapter.
