Jersey. For business. For Life


The largest of the Channel Islands, and once part of the Duchy of Normandy when William the Conqueror invaded England, Jersey remained loyal to the English Crown after Normandy was lost by the English Crown, and so was granted a special relationship that today means that Jersey is a self governing British Crown Dependency that has its own financial, legal and judicial sytems.

The island boasts many wonderful beaches, little harbours, countryside and cliff walks that add to its charm and beauty.

Jersey is steeped in history with its fine castles built to withstand subsequent attacks from the French and structures built by the German forces during WW2 when the Channel Islands were the only part of the British Isles to be occupied.

Residents and visitors keep busy and active enjoying the sea and land sports.

Benefitting from a thriving financial industry developed over many decades, Jersey is prosperous and is enjoyed by 108,000 people from different origins who have made Jersey their home.

It is a place where we feel safe, where there are many superb restaurants supplied with fresh seafood and the famous Jersey Royals and Jersey milk.

Those of us who already live and work here feel blessed and if you are looking to settle here too, here are just a sample of the properties available, though we have more at all price levels and on our Confidential List, so register with us.

Enviable Quality of Life

Jersey. For business. For life. In Jersey you, your family and business can grow and prosper.

Finding a location that benefits your business and your family might be your principal driving force but choosing a place to become your home is about much more. Residency in Jersey works for your wealth and your business but importantly, the Island also offers an enviable quality of life for you and your family.

Why Jersey?

A beautiful island setting with stunning beaches, coastline and countryside, Jersey offers a wealth of leisure and sporting opportunities. In Jersey, a work-life balance really is achievable.

For residency Professionals are choosing to relocate not only their businesses but also themselves and their families to Jersey.

With a long-standing reputation for attracting successful companies and the people that run them to its beautiful shores, Jersey is a location for those who want to work in a thriving, international centre of excellence, but who also seek a balanced lifestyle.

Key factors in the decision-making process include Jersey’s standing as a well-regulated International Finance Centre, the safety and privacy the island offers, its corporate and personal tax environment and easy access to the UK and beyond – London is just a 40-minute flight away.

Jersey is a friendly, safe, cosmopolitan community, where traditional values sit at the very heart of our contemporary lifestyles.

For families, Jersey’s appeal also lies in its high-quality health facilities and education system, a rich rural heritage, exceptional

produce from land and sea and a first class range of restaurants. Living in Jersey gives you the ability to be home, on the beach or in breath-taking countryside within minutes of leaving the office. The range of properties available is as diverse as the Island itself, from luxury waterfront apartments and historic Cod Houses, contemporary sea-view beach properties and picturesque granite farmhouses.

For business In recent years, to complement Jersey’s well established financial services sector, the team at Locate Jersey has seen a range of innovative businesses and successful entrepreneurs move to the Island from areas including R&D, medical and biosciences, financial services, Fintech, digital marketing, architecture, renewable energy and natural resources. Jersey offers a safe and stable environment

to establish a presence against the backdrop of uncertainty elsewhere. Although it is not part of the EU or the UK, Jersey has strong connections to both. The Island is self-governing, with a stable government, independent fiscal and legal systems, and a highly respected reputation as a world-leading International Financial Centre. Executives and entrepreneurs are increasingly being attracted by that financial expertise, access to capital markets, and business support that can protect their worldwide assets and help their businesses grow. In addition, Jersey has a stable, resilient and highly-developed communications network, ranking 2nd in the World Broadband Speed League 2020, and was the first jurisdiction in the world to make 100% pure 1GB fibre (FTTP) available to every broadband user, creating an environment where businesses and people flourish.

Locate Jersey offer a comprehensive, confidential and free service to support companies and families through the process of moving to and setting up their operations in Jersey. Please contact Kevin Lemasney, Head of High Value Residency Engagement on +44 (0)7797 783457 or email k.lemasney@gov.je



HANDBAGS

Ask a Specialist: What is the best (and worst) way to store my handbag? Rachel Koffsky, Christie’s International Senior Specialist, Handbags & Accessories offers a six-point guide to maintaining a healthy and happy handbag After you purchase a handbag, it may be tempting to rip open the box, trash the tissue paper and lose the receipt, but it is important to keep all of these items together if you want the best resell value. Collectors can overlook rare and collectible handbags with substantial condition issues and missing items, making it difficult to sell your beloved bag once the time is right. However, it is relatively simple to keep your handbags looking good for many years.

A RARE, BLEU MARINE, WHITE & ORANGE H MADAME CALFSKIN LEATHER, SWIFT LEATHER, SOMBRERO LEATHER, EPSOM LEATHER & MATTE ALLIGATOR FAUBOURG SELLIER BIRKIN 20 WITH PALLADIUM HARDWARE HERMÈS, 2019

Price realised USD 200,000

Estimate USD 80,000 - USD 100,000

Closed: 28 Jul 2020

1. Clean After using your handbag, the first step is to empty it of its contents and dust. You can turn the bag inside out if it is soft, and use a lint roller to get to those hard-to-reach places. If your bag is crafted from hard-pressed, grained leather, wipe the exterior of the bag softly with a damp paper towel or an alcohol-free baby wipe. If it is made from natural or untreated leather, or if it is exotic or suede, then dust it with a dry paper towel. For more serious issues, take it to a professional. 2. Stuff Now that your bag is empty and clean, you must stuff it in order for it to keep its shape. I suggest using acid-free tissue paper, a small pillow, or bubble wrap. Be sure to wrap exposed hardware (including buckles and zipper pulls) with a piece of tissue paper to keep it from making imprints on your bag over time. 3. Cover Place your bag in a soft, breathable dust bag. If you don’t have one, you can use a cotton pillowcase in a neutral colour, in order to prevent colour transfer. Make sure that the dust bag is large enough so that your handbag doesn’t warp when it is stored. 4. Separate Do not have the hardware of one bag touching another bag, because it could leave a mark. In addition, do not leave anything touching patent leather — it will cause colour to transfer from the patent leather to whatever is next to it. 5. Handle with care

A RARE, MATTE WHITE HIMALAYA NILOTICUS CROCODILE RETOURNÉ KELLY 25 WITH PALLADIUM HARDWARE HERMÈS, 2019

Price realised HKD 3,375,000 Closed: 27 Nov 2020

Estimate HKD 600,000 - HKD 800,000

Refrain from hanging your bags — this will distort the shape of the handles. 6. Store If you have it, store your bag in its original box. Otherwise, line your bags up on a shelf in your closet. If the shelf is not tall enough, do not allow the handles of the bag to be pressed down — in this event, the bag should lie flat. You can keep track of your bags by including a note with the name of the bag on the box or dustbag, so that you don’t have to rifle through ten boxes before you find your Etoupe 35.

Grouville | Jersey £13,000,000




Imposing home in the countryside Set in approx 11 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and lawns, this fine, perfectly proportioned house was built in 1993. This prestigious family home will suit those who enjoy the classical style, who require privacy, enjoy the countryside and who like to entertain and perhaps work from home. Approached by a long tree lined driveway, this home sits in an elevated position affording panoramic views towards the south east coast, and the hills and valleys inland. This prestigious residence has been built to a very high and exacting standard and provides excellent proportioned family, guest and staff accommodation, as well as extensive garaging and leisure facilities. Throughout the property are rich mahogany hand crafted skirtings, balustrades, and doors. An indoor swimming pool complex is accessed through a garden room. The home is set over three floors. The first floor has seven bedrooms, including two generous guest suites with their own sitting rooms and kitchenette. The expansive second floor provides for an extensive recreation area that currently features a snooker table plus office, boardroom and kitchenette. There is also a separate staff accommodation over an adjacent block.


On the unicorn trail: five near-mythical wines sold this year Specialist Charles Foley explains why oenophiles fantasise about these rare vintages — illustrated with examples from Christie’s 2021 sales What is a unicorn wine? Snow-white, fleet of foot and spiral-horned: the unicorn is the most famous of fabled creatures, emerging from the stories of the Indus Valley, cantering through Greek mythology and arriving, with a toss of its mane, in medieval European folklore. It is a global symbol for rarity, purity and grace. In the world of fine wine, ‘unicorn’ wines have become the new holy grail of collectors and connoisseurs. These rare vintages are often produced in limited numbers on tiny plots, and as supply dwindles, the few bottles that are left, secreted in cellars across the world, are raised to unicorn status. For the auction specialist, locating bottles of such wines is an unmeasurable privilege and pleasure, as is sharing their story and offering them for sale. For the collector, winning them at auction and hosting a dinner in their honour is akin to seeing a unicorn trot past your eyes.

Domaine Leflaive, Montrachet 2002 The world’s most lauded white wine is Montrachet (‘scabby hill’), which gets its name from the flat, rocky grand cru plot in the Côte de Beaune it comes from — the best vineyard in a sequence that includes the grand cru Bâtard-Montrachet, BienvenuesBâtard-Montrachet, Chevalier-Montrachet and Criots-BâtardMontrachet, as well as the 1er Cru Puligny Montrachet Les Pucelles. A medieval legend tells of an ageing Lord of Montrachet who, riding past the convent of Clos des Pucelles, heard a beautiful young virgin singing within. A son was born of the liaison, and when the Lord’s legitimate heir, the Chevalier, died in battle, it was decided that his illegitimate (bâtard) son should replace him. Naturally, the villagers welcomed his arrival to the Château with cries of ‘Bienvenue bâtard!’. This legend has become intertwined with vinous history, and these exceptional plots now carry names cropped from the local folklore of Burgundy. The 2002 vintage from the foremost producer, Domaine Leflaive, is a sublime expression of Chardonnay: ripe and powerful, with an ability to mature in bottle to gain complex notes of butterscotch, mushroom and toffee.

Domaine Leflaive, Montrachet 2002. 2 bottles per lot. Sold for HKD 162,500 in The Ultimate Private Collection Featuring The Greatest Burgundies on 20 May 2021 at Christie’s in Hong Kong.

Domaine Coche-Dury, Corton-Charlemagne 1990 The fabled history of Corton-Charlemagne can be traced back to the court of the bearded Emperor Charlemagne. The hedonistic Holy Roman Emperor had ordered plantings of Pinot Noir in Burgundy, and he guzzled the wine they produced with abandon. But as the Emperor grew old and his hand became unsteady, he began to dribble the Pinot Noir into his long white beard. Switching to white, he saw to it that one side of Le Corton hill was planted with Chardonnay.

Domaine Coche Dury, Corton-Charlemagne 1990. 1 bottle per lot. Sold for HKD 50,000 in The Ultimate Private Collection Featuring The Greatest Burgundies on 20 May 2021 at Christie’s in Hong Kong.

Since 1986, the acclaimed producer Domaine Coche-Dury has crafted sumptuous yet lifted grand cru Chardonnay from the Corton-Charlemagne vines, fermenting the wines in new oak with some lees stirring. Impossibly rare vintages such as 1990 are brioche-rich and verbena-blossomed, yet with a glorious struck-match reduction that makes them fresh and lively years after bottling.


Domaine Leroy, Musigny 1993 Lalou-Bize Leroy is a force of nature. After taking over the reins at Maison Leroy in 1955, she maintained the high standards of her father, Henri, who had bought the best Côte d’Or wines for production under his own label. The family were also part owners of the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, the other great name in Burgundy winemaking, and the wines from both estates are among the most collectable in the world. Other winemakers might be content with such achievements. Not so Lalou. In the late-1980s, she added vineyards to the barrels her father had bought, and began crafting handsome wines from plots such as Richebourg and Romanée-Saint-Vivant.

Domaine Leroy, Musigny 1993. 1 bottle per lot. Sold for HKD 200,000 in The Ultimate Private Collection Featuring The Greatest Burgundies on 20 May 2021 at Christie’s in Hong Kong

She now owns four hectares of Musigny, bought from Domaine Moine-Hudelot, and production is tiny — in great years, such as the mythical 1993, only two barrels might be produced. Lalou maintains that 90 per cent of the estate’s work is in the vineyard, and she’s an innovator, allowing the vines to flourish without cutting, and overseeing a savage selection process. Musigny 1993 is lushly textured and decadently rich, with a horsetail of spice.

Château Cheval-Blanc 1921 In early 2021, Christie’s specialist Edwin Vos was happily inspecting a Swiss cellar of rare and exceptional wines when he came across a bin reserved for Château Cheval Blanc 1921, resting under 100 years of dust. Knowing the vintage to be a favourite of Michael Broadbent MW, Vos was naturally eager to try it. And over dinner with the owner, he was thrilled to discover a panoply of dried fig notes layered by baking spices and blood-orange complexity. The smoky bacon weight of the wine was equally delightful. Produced from a glorious crop of grapes that followed a hot Bordeaux summer, the 1921 vintage was the earliest since 1893 and Albert Laussac-Fourcaud had only started picking on 19 September. (Due to climate change, harvests now start in late August!) What Laussac-Fourcaud had noted was the high (14.2%) alcohol content of the crop and its beautiful phenolic and fruit ripeness. The crop went into wooden vats for fermentation and barrels for ageing before being bottled and despatched around the world, including Geneva, where a number of bottles were picked up by the vendor. Six were offered in the Centenary Anniversary sale on 11 May at Christie’s in Geneva.

Château Cheval-Blanc 1921. 6 bottles per lot. Sold for CHF 91,875 on 11 May 2021 at Christie’s in Geneva

Grand Constance 1821 In 1821, as Napoleon breathed his last on St Helena, the grapes of his favourite wine were ripening on the vine. Harvested late for optimal sweetness levels, they were then pressed hard for maximum sugar extraction, producing a blend of ripe and raisined red Muscadel and Pontac — 30 years before the phylloxera blight. Two hundred years later, the honied, spun-sugar and hazelnut depths of the wine can only be dreamed of. The wine is bottled in black glass; traditionally, coal was added to the glass, giving it a dark green hue, to protect the wine from light exposure.

Grand Constance 1821. 1 bottle per lot. Sold for ZAR 420,000 in The Bicentenary Anniversary, Cape Fine and Rare Wine Auction (in association with Christie’s) on 22 May in Stellenbosch

It was decanted in 1883 and the use of ‘decanté’ on the label points to its time in cellarage in France. The bottle also has a unique seal on the label and cork for traceability. Fewer than 12 bottles of this wine remain, so for one to come up in this year’s Cape Fine and Rare Auction was extraordinary. CHRISTIE’S IMAGES LTD. 2021
