Born in Bordeaux and educated in the U.S, Sacha Lichine began working at his family’s property, Chateau Prieuré Lichine, during the summers of his youth. At age 23, Sacha began his career by engaging in a variety of endevors including organizing luxury wine tours in France and establishing a negociant Sacha Lichine Estate Selections for wines from Burgundy and the Rhone.
Other endevors included working as a Sommelier at Anthony Pier 4 restaurant in Boston and for a major U.S. based distributor, Southern Wine & Spirit, as well as establishing a distributorship in the Caribbean.
A defining moment in Sacha’s career came about when he started running Château Prieure Lichine at age 27.
In 1990 Sacha started a negociant business, Borvin, which he still operates focusing on selecting the best wines from Bordeaux. Recognizing the importance of innovation in an increasingly varied wine industry around the world, Sacha developed a line of new world wines from France, Sacha Lichine – Vins Sans Frontieres which today consists of a selection of growers and wines crafted through out the regions of France.
His 2006 acquisition of Chateau d’Esclans in Provence has resulted in building a world class brand while providing a strong contribution to unprecedented growth within the Rose category.

ALEXIS LICHINE (1913-1989)
The globalization of wine has important roots with Alexis Lichine who emigrated to The United States from Moscow and then from America to France during his youth. His cultivated experience led him to various capacities in fostering consumer awareness and enthusiasm about wine.
During World War II, Mr. Lichine served with the US Army and took part in the August 1944 allied landings in southern France. Upon finishing his military service as a Major and Aide de Camp to General Eisenhower, Mr. Lichine helped to rebuild numerous vineyards and cellars throughout France that were destroyed and ransacked during the war. His efforts helped to empower the French wine establishment permitting it to focus on what would become a prosperous future during subsequent decades.
For Mr. Lichine, the groundwork was laid to establishing his first commercial venture: Alexis Lichine Selections.Through his company’s selection process, Mr. Lichine created the estate bottling system in Burgundy offering Domaines higher standards to package and promote their wine than were the negotiants of the day.
Additionally, Mr. Lichine also established and owned Domaines Lichine Newman. His noted 1951 acquisition of Chateau Prieure Lichine, for himself, would remain in the family for nearly fifty years before being sold. Mr. Lichine also acquired Chateau Lascombes with a group of investors and sold it to Bass Charrington in 1970. In 1962 he made a provocative impact by publishing the Classification des Grand Crus Rouges de Bordeaux in a spirited effort to revise the outdated Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855.
An enduring legacy to Alexis Lichine is writing the Wines of France published in 1952 followed by Alexis Lichine’s Encyclopedia of Wines & Spirits in 1967 later to be renamed Alexis Lichine’s New Encyclopedia of Wines & Spirits after numerous printings up through 1988. Both these books became instrumental to demystifying wine for a generation of wine lovers. Given Mr. Lichine’s unmatched and celebrated leadership many referred to him as the Pope of Wine.
