Service excellence and improvement have been at the heart of Liberty Wines’ operations since day one,27 years ago. Their simple objective is to deliver the right wine to the right place at the right time. Named ‘On-trade Supplier of the Year’ twelve times and ‘Wine Educator of the Year’ six times by the International Wine Challenge, the company continues to invest in education and training for customers and staff, believing that increased knowledge improves service. Liberty Wines is delighted to sponsor the Service Award at the National Restaurant Awards for the tenth year and reward those in the industry who take outstanding service as seriously as they do.
Piper Heidsieck, official champagne partner to the National Restaurant Awards, brings the same ethos of excellence to this event. Founded nearly 240 years ago, Piper Heidsieck’s historical success has been shaped by a forward-thinking, pioneering spirit which continues today. In 2022, they were one of the first Grand Marques to achieve B-Corp Certification, illustrating an ongoing commitment to improving both their social and environmental impact on the planet. Their chief winemaker, Émilien Boutillat, is among the youngest in Champagne’s history and has been a driving force in these sustainability initiatives, from the cellars to the growers they work with.
