One Of The Best New Whisky Distilleries Ever Is About To Close Down
Maison Lineti's distinctive fermentation eggs. Thomas Liaunet Last month, French whisky distillery Maison Lineti played host to the sixth edition of the World Whisky Forum, a celebrated industry gathering that welcomed around 70 attendees representing some of the top names in whisky to Bordeaux in southwest France. The event, lauded for its openness and intellectual depth, was a resounding success: 'You get the right people in the room, and you know that barrier that sometimes exists between a speaker giving a presentation and the audience just kind of breaks down, and everybody is chatting, everybody's discussing stuff, and some really positive things come out of it,' said whisky writer and author Dave Broom, who is one of the festival organizers. But behind the scenes of the event's convivial spirit, Maison Lineti (an anagram of 'Saint-Émilion' where it is based) was facing an existential crisis. Unbeknownst to the attendees, the distillery is heading toward liquidation after its principal shareholder suddenly withdrew financial support earlier this year. Now, unless a new owner can be found soon, it is likely to shut down entirely. While deeply unfortunate, Maison Lineti is not the first distillery or whisky business to face these kinds of ugly pressures as the wider whisky market begins to face a tough downturn, nor will it be the last. However, I was drawn to the distillery's story because two industry figures I deeply respect and admire, Broom and Dawn Davies, took to social media to express in no uncertain terms that the very possible closure of Maison Lineti would be a deep and unacceptable tragedy to the wider world of whisky. Davies is the head buyer for The Whisky Exchange, the world's first and largest online whisky retailer, and she is a walking alcohol encyclopedia. Broom is one of the world's leading authorities on whisky, and is deeply knowledgeable about all kinds of projects around the globe. So I wanted to know, what made them want to speak up for a small French producer? To both of them, Maison Lineti's approach to whiskymaking represents a potential paradigm shift for how the wider industry considers whisky production. Its closure before it ever releases an actual whisky to them is unacceptable given what they have tasted so far. "I thought, f***, I have to go to bat for this distillery, because I'm just not going to let this quality of liquid not arrive to the market', Davies told me. 'Because the market needs it. The industry needs this." How Maison Lineti Makes Whisky Maison Lineti's alembic stills. Gunther Vicente Maison Lineti is not a conventional whisky distillery. Located in the heart of Bordeaux wine country, it applies oenological techniques more commonly associated with winemaking than distilling. This hybrid approach is what has attracted an increasing amount of admiration within the whisky world, as attendees to the World Whisky Forum can attest. 'We try a lot of things used in the wine industry, like cold soaking, lees aging, and malolactic fermentation,' says Maison Lineti co-founder Alex Cosculluela. 'We do only long fermentations. We're applying different things to the whisky that are typically used in the wine industry'. Their production is rooted in detailed research and scientific precision led by Cosculluela's partner in whisky and in life Dr. Magali Picard. The distillery uses fermentation eggs—typically seen in avant-garde wineries—and extended aging on lees to develop complexity and texture. The use of malolactic fermentation introduces lactic acid bacteria to convert harsher malic acid into softer lactic acid, enhancing roundness and balance. Distillation is done through alembic stills, which are more typical of Cognac. The philosophy extends beyond practice to communication. Until a couple of days ago, Maison Lineti made its technical findings publicly available on its website, part of a broader mission to democratize knowledge. 'She [Picard] wants to collaborate, and she wants to democratise whiskymaking knowledge,' said Broom. 'She wants to share this information because what they are doing is mind-blowing'. Maison Lineti's approach is centered on what Cosculluela calls their "organoleptic DNA,' which defines the sensory identity of their whisky: 'We decided to base this DNA on four pillars. The first one is floral notes. The second one, mineral notes. The third one is tautness, tension. It's the perception of strength in the mouth due to the acidity. It's a notion from the wine industry, but really important. Our last pillar is roundness.' Broom, Davies, and others have been blown away by the results. 'These spirits are not even three years old [the legal age at which you can call whisky 'whisky' in the E.U.], and I would happily drink it at two years because they are so balanced,' said Davies 'The oak is so well integrated, and the spirit is texturally amazing' Coming from a wine background, Davies found the use of winemaking methods revelatory. 'Everything that I expected in my head based on what I knew about how they approached that combination of wine and whisky all came perfectly together when I tried it. It made sense in terms of texture, in terms of balance, in terms of just these beautiful flavours coming through the acidity.' Broom echoed her sentiments. 'I don't know of anybody who has gone into this level of detail about how to chart flavour, how to work out techniques and ways in which whisky can be enhanced' he said. This is high praise indeed. Will Maison Lineti Ever Release A Whisky? Distillery co-founders Alex Cosculluela and Dr. Magali Picard Gunther Vicente Despite revolutionary methods and the high quality of the spirit it has produced so far, Maison Lineti is now on the verge of financial collapse. Its main shareholder—a wine merchant and producer—informed Cosculluela and Picard it was pulling out of the project earlier in the year, citing instability in the wine market. 'Our main shareholders are from the wine industry... they preferred to stop their diversification strategy, and to be focused on their main business' said Cosculluela. France's wine sector is currently experiencing a deep crisis, with many businesses forced to consolidate or retrench. 'Right now there is a huge, huge wine crisis. We never had something like that before,' he continued. 'The wine and spirit industry in France is really struggling right now. They are in a storm, a huge storm'. With the shareholder exit, Maison Lineti lost its principal source of funding. Efforts to find a replacement investor have so far fallen short. 'We tried to find a few investor before the bankruptcy situation, but we didn't receive any sufficient offers,' said Cosculluela. 'We have three months to sell all the assets of the company and to find someone who is interested in relaunching the distillery'. Maison Lineti's uncertain future is a reflection of broader pressures facing the global spirits industry, where financial constraints and falling demand have squeezed new smaller producers particularly hard. If the distillery does in the end go completely under, it means us whisky fans won't get to taste the results of some of the best research ever done on the science of whisky's aromas and flavors. "They told me that they didn't think they were going to bring this project to fruition and it broke my heart, because I think that these are two absolutely amazing people who have really done something revolutionary in our industry', says Davies. "I just think they deserve a voice, and they deserve a chance."

Polestar to Build SUV in Europe by 2028 to Offset Tariffs
Polestar (PSNY, Financials) said Thursday it will build its upcoming Polestar 7 sport utility vehicle at Volvo Cars new factory in Slovakia, aiming to lower its exposure to rising European and U.S. tariffs on China-made electric vehicles. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 6 Warning Signs with PSNY. The company said it signed a memorandum of understanding with Volvo Cars, both of which are controlled by Chinas Geely. Volvos Kosice plant is expected to begin production in 2026 and will have an annual capacity of 250,000 vehicles. Polestar, which has yet to reach profitability, faces 28.8% tariffs on China-made EVs shipped to Europe and more than 100% on those sent to the United States. Most of its production currently takes place in China through Geely and Volvo. The firm already assembles some Polestar 3 units in South Carolina and will export the Polestar 4 to the United States from South Korea later this year. However, it stopped accepting U.S. orders for the China-built Polestar 2 earlier in 2025. Polestar said diversifying production to Europe reflects a broader strategy to manage geopolitical trade friction and improve cost competitiveness. Investors will be watching how these shifts affect margins and delivery timelines as the company works toward profitability. This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Sign in to access your portfolio

Ownership of Pension Insurance Corporation Group ("PICG"), ultimate parent company of the specialist insurer of UK defined benefit pension schemes Pension Insurance Corporation ("PIC"), to transition to a single and strategic owner PICG will become the UK insurance business of Athora and continue to operate under the PIC (and penguin) brand, benefitting from increased access to long-term growth capital and enhanced asset origination expertise as part of Athora Acquisition to create a pan-European savings and retirement services champion, establishing a leading position in the UK Pensions market to complement Athora's existing operations in the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy and Germany LONDON, July 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Athora Holding Ltd. (Athora or the Group) and Pension Insurance Corporation Group Limited (PICG), one of the UK's leading pension solutions providers, today announced that Athora and the shareholders of PICG – Reinet Fund S.C.A., F.I.S.; a wholly owned subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA); funds managed by CVC Capital Partners (CVC) and HPS Investment Partners (collectively, the Consortium) – have entered into a definitive agreement for Athora to acquire PICG for approximately £5.7 billion. Upon completion, PICG will become Athora's UK insurance business, operating under the Pension Insurance Corporation (PIC) and Penguin brands. Athora is a leading European savings and retirement services business with €76 billion of Assets under Management and Administration (AuMA), serving approximately 2.8 million policyholders. Athora is backed by permanent capital owners, including a strategic minority investment by Apollo Global Management and Athene Holding Ltd, and long term institutional investors such as a wholly owned subsidiary of ADIA. As a result of the transaction, PICG will become Athora's UK subsidiary, maintaining its long tenured team, dedication to customer service, robust capitalisation and disciplined investment philosophy. In addition, PIC is poised to benefit from broader resources, long-term growth capital, and enhanced asset origination capabilities, including in private investment grade credit resulting from Athora's strategic relationship with Apollo. Together, Athora and PIC believe the combination will accelerate scaled, high-grade financing in the UK market, increasing productive investment in the economy and supporting retirement outcomes for pensioners. The acquisition of PICG by the Athora Group will create one of Europe's largest insured savings and retirement services businesses, building on existing subsidiaries in the Netherlands, Italy, Belgium and Germany. Commenting on the acquisition, Mike Wells, Athora's Group Chief Executive Officer, said: "We are pleased for PICG to become Athora's first UK insurance business, maintaining its great team, brand and utmost commitment to serving its customers. The acquisition by Athora will enhance access to long-term growth capital and asset origination capabilities, enabling PIC to serve more of the UK savings and retirement market, where it has already established itself as a top three provider in pension risk transfer." Wells continued, "Today, PIC is a significant investor in the UK economy and, as part of Athora, we believe it will play an even more meaningful role in providing long-duration financing for infrastructure and other long-term assets." Tracy Blackwell, CEO of PIC, said: "PIC has had an amazing growth story over the past two decades and is now one of Britain's preeminent pension businesses. This success has been based on a simple purpose, which is to pay the pensions of our current and future policyholders. Athora's investment is validation of what we have always believed: that PIC's reputation, strategy, fortress balance sheet, purpose, and most importantly our people combine to make this a unique business in a huge and growing market. "With Athora backing us through our next phase of growth as their UK insurance business, we will be able to provide more options to the trustees of defined benefit pension schemes and invest more in the UK economy and infrastructure. The pension risk transfer market is vital to the wellbeing of millions of UK pensioners and the allocation of tens of billions of pounds of investment into the UK's economy. This acquisition and the potential for growth that it represents is, in our view, the strongest possible recognition of the value and importance of the pension risk transfer market, the sector that PIC helped to create and continues to lead." After adjusting for the acquisition, Athora will have approximately €135[1] billion of AuMA, representing a 78% increase on the year-end 2024 level. The acquisition will be funded primarily by equity as well as long-term bank debt. Pro forma for the transaction, Athora expects to maintain solvency ratio above its target levels. The proposed transaction is expected to close in early 2026. Completion of the transaction is contingent upon satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals from the PRA.
