As a result of the hearing at
Westminster Magistrates Court on Friday 11th May concerning the directors / staff charged
in respect of Finbow and Nouveau World Wine, the case has progressed and
the next (preliminary) hearing has been scheduled for 13/07/12 at
Southwark Crown Court. It is customary for the initial hearing to be held at a magistrates court with serious cases being transferred to a convenient crown court for trial. Due to the nature of the charges the actual trial is understandably still some way off.
Southwark Crown Court is by the Thames and is a short walk from London Bridge.
Jim,
ReplyDeleteAre you familiar with CANARY WHARF VINTNERS. Having changed their name twice previously, I find it ironic that they're now called Canary Wharf Vintners, as they're clearly not based in canary wharf. Their office address is a Regus serviced office, I wonder where they are?

They claim to have been running since 2006, but they were clearly Strategic Land Acquisitions until September 2010.
It always begs the question, why does a company need to lie about their whereabouts? And why do the need to lie about how long they've been operating for? Moreso, why diversify from 'strategic land' to fine wine?
Canary Wharf Vintners has now been superseded by Belgravia Alternative Assets Ltd, Company Number 07077735 also run by Enver Jainu-Deen whose Date of Birth is : 28/04/1959. Belgravia Alternative Assets is selling hugely marked up wine plus other shady alternative "investments". Give this company a very wide berth unless you are looking to pay massive markups and huge commissions.

Dear Jim
ReplyDeletehave you come across Veblen wines, they hold a client umbrella account @ vinotheque so that clients wines are held under the Veblen name with sub accounts. they also only charge a percentage of profit made yet some of the companies you recommend charge a fixed fee only

Thanks anons. I have already posted on AS Fine Wines. Looks like the new site is a stripped down version of the previous site.
ReplyDeleteVeblen Wines. I have come across them before and to date have received no complaints about them. I should make it clear that I do not recommend any wine companies, although I do have a list of companies from whom I would consider buying.
Whats the deal with boltons investments Jim?
ReplyDeleteJIM any news on claret 1855
ReplyDeleteAnon: Eighteen 55 Clarets. No news apart from a change of directors: ALTAUR RAHMAN has returned as a director, while STEPHEN BRADSHAW has resigned. Change made on 18th June 2012.
ReplyDeleteJim-do you know if there's a trial date for finbow yet?
ReplyDeleteAnon. No I don't but I will check. I don't suppose it will be until the autumn at the earliest.
ReplyDeleteJim - fyi just got a letter from the met. 27th they(4) are in court for a hearing. about 6-9 months for a trial, so your about right on that
ReplyDeleteToday 13th.Feb I was contacted over the phone by a John Banks of Capital Bordeaux Ltd. He sounded very like Patrick Peeters of World widw wines Ltd of Milton Keynes. He knew all about my purchases from WWW and claimed that if I opened up an account with Cap.Bor. he would be able to get my wine ( bootled and in France?) back into Cap. Bor. bonded warehouse. He claimed that the WWW had been "red flagged" at the chateau and was waiting to be reclaimed or sold off to pay the creditors of WWW.
