Maison Wessman and Norah Jones Launch “This Life” Wine Collection, Blending French Terroir with Musical Soul

Conne-de-Labarde, France, 23.06.2026 – Maison Wessman, a leading winery in Southwest France, is excited to announce its first brand collaboration with the internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter Norah Jones. This partnership marks the launch of “This Life,” a new line of artisanal wines co-created by Jones and Maison Wessman’s founder, Róbert Wessman.

Unveiled at the iconic Electric Lady Studios in New York City, where Jones also previewed new music, This Life celebrates artistic harmony, personal expression, and exceptional craftsmanship. The collection launches with two signature wines:

• This Life 2024 Rosé: A delicate blend of Grenache and Syrah from the Bergerac region.
• This Life Crémant: A crisp, refined sparkling wine crafted from Chardonnay grapes in Limoux.

This unique collaboration brings together Norah Jones’ creative intuition and Maison Wessman’s commitment to excellence, delivering rich wines in flavour and story.

“Wine, like music, is deeply personal and emotive,” says Norah Jones. “Working with Róbert and the Maison Wessman team felt like composing a song—every blend, every note was considered and intentional.”

A Shared Vision Born in France, Rooted in Iceland

Maison Wessman was founded by Róbert Wessman—a serial entrepreneur from Iceland—and his life partner, Ksenia, with the vision of reinventing winemaking traditions and elevating the tasting experience. Based in the heart of Périgord, the winery operates from the historic Château de Saint-Cernin, producing over one million bottles annually and hosting immersive experiences that include a Michelin-starred restaurant, organic gardens, and cellar concerts.

The This Life collaboration is a natural evolution of Wessman’s creative vision. “Maison Wessman is more than a winery; it is a place where ideas, passions, and disciplines converge,” says Wessman. “Partnering with Norah has allowed us to explore a new dimension of storytelling through wine.”

Crafted for Those Who Seek Meaning in Every Sip

Maison Wessman believes that wine should reflect the character of its creators and drinkers. This Life is designed to do just that—a blend of Norah Jones’ soulful artistry and the refined elegance of French terroir.

This marks the first brand collaboration for Norah Jones, a part-owner of the winery who actively participated in the blending process alongside oenologist Michel Rolland, Maison Wessman’s long-time advisor.
