As the co-founder of St. John, one of the world's most influential restaurants, Trevor Gulliver is a man of many enthusiasms. The house he bought in Minervois was intended as a place to unwind, but instead, Trevor saw an opportunity to exercise his natural curiosity and make some excellent wine. This decision was further cemented by the input of a talented local vigneron, who had just returned from running Michel Chapoutier’s Australian operations. The resulting project was named Boulevard Napoléon, after the street on which the house and winery are situated, in the village of La Livinière. This is a loving nod to St. John, which is also named after the street on which the original restaurant sits in Farringdon, London.
