Nadine Lustre and her boyfriend, Filipino-French businessman Christophe Bariou, launched their wine business, which they regard as their passion project and their “new baby.”
“Grateful for the countless days of uncertainty and problem-solving [because] it’s what makes the journey so so personal.
It feels surreal seeing our passion project come to life,” the actress said of “Maison Bukana Wines” via her Instagram page on Friday, Oct. 13.
Bariou likewise showed wine bottles and photos with Lustre along with the French expression “Les Beaux Jours reviennent” which means “the beautiful days are ahead.”
“Can’t believe our new baby is finally out there! Nadine and I are so happy to share with you ‘Maison Bukana Wines,’ a project born out of our common passion,” he added.
The couple organized an indoor evening party to launch their business venture, as seen in the photos and videos taken by the guests and shared by Bariou on his Instagram Stories on Tuesday, Oct. 17.
