Chelsea ace Cole Palmer in battle with £750-a-bottle winery over bid to trademark nickname & goal celebration
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ENGLAND footie star Cole Palmer's bid to trademark his Cold Palmer nickname has been challenged by posh French vineyard Château Palmer. In a case of Claret vs Blue, the £750-a-bottle winery has opposed the Chelsea player's bid as they want to preserve their own image. 3 Cole Palmer's bid to trademark his Cold Palmer nickname has been challenged by posh French vineyard Château Palmer Credit: Getty 3 The vineyard is in France's Margaux region 3 One bottle of the firm's Cru Classé Margaux from 1970 was listed at £750 The hotshot, 23, wanted to trademark his shivering goal celebration and Cold Palmer nickname. But the application has been unexpectedly opposed by the revered vineyard in France's Margaux region. The footballer hoped to use the moniker for a range of goods such as toiletries and clothes. But the application also asks for legal protection to be allowed to market wine. His papers highlighted: 'Alcoholic beverages; alcoholic fruit beverages; pre-mixed alcoholic beverages; wines; spirits; liqueurs; alcoholic energy drinks; low alcoholic beverages; none of the aforesaid including wines complying with the specifications of the PDO Champagne.' And that alerted bosses at the French label, who have opposed the application. Lawyers at the government's Intellectual Property Office will rule on the potential clash after receiving representations from both sides. Drake hints Cole Palmer is inspiration behind his new album name as he shares brilliant video of Chelsea star The wine firm was founded in 1814 when British Army officer Charles Palmer acquired the estate, then known as Château de Gascq. He renamed it after himself and expanded the vineyards. Royal wine merchant Berry Bros & Rudd says of the firm: 'Château Palmer is a leading wine estate in Margaux. 'Within its appellation, Palmer is certainly the closest rival to its first growth neighbour, Ch. Margaux. 'Although officially ranked a Third Growth, at their best, the wines of Chateau Palmer are among the greatest anywhere in Bordeaux.' Yesterday, one bottle of the firm's Cru Classé Margaux from 1970 was listed at £750. Cole Palmer is not known to be a wine connoisseur, but did pretend to drink a pint of lager last season when one was thrown on the pitch when Chealsea played Copenhagen. He famously asked a waiter in a posh restaurant for ketchup before asking him if he had cooked the meal. His wine preferences are unknown. The star made his senior debut for Manchester City in 2020, and was in the team's squad to win the Premier League, FA Cup, and UEFA Champions League in 2023 before signing for Chelsea for £40million.

Old fossil-fuel plants are becoming green-energy hubs
FOR MORE than a decade the Tamaya power station in the Atacama desert in northern Chile powered its local region using diesel. Today a shimmering array of solar panels stands in place of the dirty generator. Engie, the French utility that owns the power station, converted it into a solar-energy and battery-storage plant earlier this year. Juan Villavicencio, the company's boss in Chile, describes the site as a place where 'the past and future of energy infrastructure meet'.
