Sichel

The origins of the Bordeaux wine trading house "Maison Sichel" date back to the middle of the 18th century. Since then, the widely ramified family of German origin has been involved with wine. In 1857, the descendant Hermann Sichel (born 1791) founded the wine and spirits trading house H. Sichel und Söhne in Mainz. This was followed in 1883 by a branch in Bordeaux, which today is one of the most renowned wine trading houses there. Walter Sichel (1906-1989) studied the wine business in Geisenheim, Bordeaux and Spain and founded a branch in London in 1927, becoming a British citizen in 1935.
