Save the date folks!

On Sunday 26th November we will be opening our shop for a day of Festive Shopping! 🎄
You can come and have a wander around, get some stocking fillers, some treats for your Christmas table (never too early for that!!), gifts for loved ones and employees

It's official #winelovers
The one and only Festival of Wines is an great excuse to come and taste some of the products we sell, have a chat with the producers/ suppliers and find some new favourites to add to your wine rack. It's a great evening if we say so ourselves😉

Today marks a tough day for #wine & #spirit businesses & consumers as HM Treasury's punishing new alcohol tax regime kicks in

📈20%/44p on wine 🍷
📈10%/76p on spirits 🍸🥃
Tax will increase on 88% of still wine 🍷

GOV.UK📢It's not simpler or fairer😠

How do our consumer and industry judges choose winning wines and spirits? Through 'blind-tasting', where all of the bottles, bags, boxes and cans are covered to hide their labelling!

#winehacks really easy way to chill white wine quickly

Another good mornings judging at the #greattasteawards 28 different spirit, liqueurs and premixed cocktails so far. Looking forward to more this afternoon

1 MONTH TO GO before we'll be chatting with Emy and Bili from Chateau Burgozone over zoom about their fabulous wines.
