About Sara Guiducci and Stannary Wines

Flint Wines was established in 2006 by Jason Haynes and Sam Clarke. Jason, part of the Gouges family in Nuits-St-Georges through marriage, made Burgundy our speciality and today Flint Wines is one of the largest, and best, importers of Burgundy in the UK. By 2010 the company expanded to include the finest Californian selection of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay (focussed on a cool-climate, Burgundian style) and today they represent growers from around the world (from England to Australia, from low alcohol Riesling to fortified port). The company motto of being ‘uncompromisingly good’ is reflected in the extraordinary range of producers they represent. Sara Guiducci, with 15 years of experience in the Fine Wine trade including at Berry Bros. & Rudd and Corney & Barrow, joined in 2018 to Head the Private Client team at Flint Wines. Foremost, it was her passion for Burgundy that drew her to Flint Wines, but she has also greatly enjoyed discovering the broad range of varieties that Italy has to offer. Sara passed her WSET Diploma with distinction and is currently studying for her MW.
