Hello Emma fans! We’ve all woken up today with the news that Emma has joined the family business and teamed up with her brother in the launch of a gin, Renais! Our gallery has been updated with both the cover for How To Spend It, out today, and the photo session featuring the siblings. You can read the full article below, that gives you not just a better insight of the family business but also Emma’s career over the years, and spoiler alert: Looks like Emma is gearing up to go back to school soon (and we might be getting some more news from the acting and directing realm soon).

To call Emma Watson’s father an oenophile would be undercooking it. “He’s a mega-nerd,” says Emma over a long lunch last September, with a bias towards regional classics, at Bistrot des Grands Crus in Chablis.  “I prefer to say I’m passionate,” Chris replies, taking the measure of a glass of local red. “But I am a mega-nerd.” Chris Watson loves France, and the French. More specifically, he loves rural Burgundy, in the eastern-central part of the country, and especially Chablis, the small Burgundian town famous for its white wine.  But the Watsons are in France, en famille, to toast a new venture: the launch of a gin, the brainchild of Alex Watson, Emma’s younger brother, who until recently was an executive in the drinks industry. It’s called Renais, or “rebirth”, pronounced like “Renée”. And, uniquely for a gin, it is as much French as it is English, just as the Watsons feel themselves to be.

At least partly a tribute to Chris, and to the land – the terroir – that the Watsons love, Renais will go on sale for the first time today, initially in the UK. Flavoured by the skins of grapes handpicked in the steepest, most prestigious grand cru vineyards of Chablis, it is, in Alex’s description, “quite an esoteric product”. And, in its way, a very modern one: the grape skins are organic and the gin is certified carbon-neutral. Chris Watson, 65, is a high-flying City lawyer, a partner in a large international law firm, with a focus on communications law. He is also an accomplished linguist. As well as French, Watson speaks German, Spanish, Italian, and his Russian is good enough to decode complicated legal documents. His English is also decent. But Chris’s real passions are for game fishing, music and wine-making – and wine-drinking.

He first came to Chablis in 1987, “to pick grapes and carry a hod up and down a hill”, as he puts it, sounding very much like a man who would like nothing more than to be doing exactly that right now. Back then, he was a young English barrister recently relocated to Paris with his then wife, Jacqueline, also a lawyer. During their seven years in France, they had two children, Emma, born in 1990, and Alex, two years later. And even though the family moved back to England when Alex was a toddler, Chris and the kids kept coming back to Chablis year after year. (Chris and Jacqueline divorced in 1995, and Emma and Alex have long since acquired new siblings on both sides.) Chris bought his first vineyard in 1991. This was easier said than done. It took him eight years to satisfy the criteria of the local authorities so that he could plant his vines. Bureaucracy, I am not the first person to note, is a French word. Then again, so is entrepreneur.

Hello hello! Long time no see! Neide and I have been working on backing up this fansite and possibly moving it to a different server, as we’re still dealing with some connectivity issues (my IP keeps getting blocked, which prevents the site from loading for me at all), and there hasn’t really been anything for us to update it with lately. But! Emma attended The Elton John AIDS Foundation’s Academy Awards Viewing Party yesterday, and a couple of photos of her at the event have been released, so we’ve added them to our gallery.

Emma was announced as one of the 16 celebrities to join forces for a tournament of pickleball to benefit Comic Relief US, and our gallery has been updated with promotional photos from the special event! The tournament, Pickled, is hosted by Stephen Colbert and will be airing on Thursday, November 17, on CBS.

Emma attended the Prada Paradoxe Launch Party in London a couple of days ago, and our gallery has been updated with the images. She also attended a celebratory dinner for the fragrance in New York City about a month ago, and those images have been uploaded as well, along with a few more from the fragrance’s promotional photoshoot, and of Emma on set while shooting the ad.
