Rockstar Jon Bon Jovi visits Central London pub with son Jesse

A London pub played host to rock royalty last week, as legendary musician Jon Bon Jovi visited the The Duke of Sussex in Waterloo.

The rock star was spotted with his son Jesse Bongiovi, toasting the success of their award-winning wine, Hampton Water Rose.

The father-and-son duo visited the popular Stonegate gastropub on Friday (November 22) to celebrate their premium rosé making waves across London.

Born from Jesse and Jon’s shared love of rosé and inspired by summers in the Hamptons, the brand was brought to life in 2018 with the expertise of renowned French winemaker Gérard Bertrand.

Since its launch, Hampton Water has become a sensation, earning 90+ point ratings from Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast and Decanter, as well as being named an Impact Hot Prospect brand two years running.

During their visit, Jon and Jesse chatted with guests, raised a glass of Hampton Water, and sampled The Duke of Sussex’s cocktail, which shone a spotlight on their celebrated rosé.

“We wanted to create something that feels like the Hamptons in a bottle, and it’s incredible to see how much people here in the UK love it,” Jesse said.

Jon Bon Jovi added: “Coming to London and seeing Hampton Water featured in gastropubs like The Duke of Sussex is a dream come true. This wine was born from family, friends, and a lot of love, and we’re excited to share it with people who feel just as connected to it as we do.”

James Metcalfe, Director of Marketing at Stonegate Group, said: “We’re honoured to have hosted Jon and Jesse at The Duke of Sussex, a shining example of what The Chapter Collection is all about - exceptional food, drink and a welcoming atmosphere. Their visit was a celebration of everything Hampton Water stands for: quality, passion and a shared love of bringing people together over great wine.”
