PLB will represent Burgundian producer Antonin Rodet in the UK from 1 January 2006.
According to a spokesman: PLB, now incorporating Lane & Tatham Fine Wines, has been looking for a high-quality partner in the Burgundy region for some time and feels that Antonin Rodet will be a valuable addition to the company's growing portfolio of fine French agencies.
Jeffrey Fredericks, PLB's chairman, added: Rodet is particularly strong in the Cte Chalonnaise and Nuits St Georges. It also has the UK exclusivity for the highly-rated Domaine Jacques Prieur wines.'
PLB will work closely with Alexandre Graffard who will remain based in London as Antonin Rodet (UK).
