Please contact your sales rep for more details on tasting or ordering these wines, or for new business enquiries please contact the team.

Our first tastings of the year, January 10 - 13th, celebrated the best of white wines. All featured wines, including the excellent 2006 are in stock under bond, ready for ordering.

We were delighted to welcome five traditional French wine-makers to our November tasting. It is always a pleasure to showcase some of the best wines in the world, and being able to present wines from Domaine Lamy Pillot, Domaine de L'Arlot, Domaine Thibert, Doimaine Bouzereau and Champagne Drappier certainly lived up to our customers expectations.

Our November visit took us to sample the delightful wines at Sury-en-Vaux. Expert wine-maker Michel was on hand to discuss the terroir, blending and passion that guarantee the distinctive flavours in every bottle. We feel it is important for your staff to be able to discuss the wines they sell, and visiting the wine-maker and/or our in-house training can really help to boost sales. Contact Gary McDonald if this would be of interest on telephone number 01487 811008.
