Founded in 1698, it is the UK\u2019s oldest family-run wine merchant and supplier of wines to the royal family. As the eighth generation of the Berry family to work in the company, Willis looks after all aspects of design, from print and publishing to photography, labels and interior design. He previously worked in magazines and for a design agency, as well as doing a stint in Asia working out of Berry Bros. &amp; Rudd\u2019s Hong Kong office.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The world of wine is very much about story telling, it has been a wonderful opportunity to apply my background in design and branding to a firm that is so rich in history.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It was his ancestor, Charles Walter Berry, who cemented his love of wine, imparting to a young Willis the view that the role of the wine merchant is to be \u201cthe closest link between those who make the wine and those who drink the wine\u201d. Says Willis: \u201cI\u2019ve always loved the stories behind each individual wine and the people that make them. There is so much more to wine than the bottle and the label. My grandfather Anthony Berry was also a great influence, he helped demystify wine and make it accessible to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A look at the company\u2019s Instagram account demonstrates Willis\u2019s talent in bringing these elements together and keeping Berry Bros. relevant to all ages, with pictures of the newest restaurant hotspot, comfortably sitting alongside a 1996 Chateau Haut-Brion and 1970 Taylor\u2019s Vintage Port; from queuing for an hour to squeeze into the former and patiently waiting 46 years to crack open the latter, wine lovers of all ages \u2013 and all budgets \u2013 flock to the treasure trove in Pall Mall.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I don\u2019t think that it\u2019s possible to separate wine and food, it\u2019s such a symbiotic relationship. I\u2019m very fickle, I tend to fall in love with the wines of a region that I\u2019ve recently visited. The simplest food matches are often the best, a wine from the Jura with a piece of Comt<em>\u00e9<\/em>\u00a0or oysters with a young Chablis.<\/li>\n<li>My grandfather\u2019s advice was always \u201ceverything in moderation\u201d. Drinking wine with the right people is often as important as what\u2019s in the bottle.<\/li>\n<li>I\u2019m partial to a Negroni and the occasional Martini. Particularly when they\u2019re made with our No3 London Dry Gin by Alessandro Palazzi at Dukes Hotel opposite our St James\u2019s Street shop.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We cannot deny the importance of mobile in interacting with customer.
