Our main activity is the purchase and sale of top Bordeaux wines, of which we are one of the world's largest stockholders and leading en primeur merchants. We also offer an in depth range of wines from other French regions including Burgundy, the Rhône and Loire valleys, Champagne and Alsace. The greatest wines from around the world also feature on our site with the pick of the bunch from Italy, Spain, California, Australia and New Zealand as well as vintage Ports and Madeiras.

In today's market where the internet promises many unrealistic deals, and where pricing has become transparent, we believe it is even more important to buy from a company that can deliver what it promises. Almost all the wines on offer on this site belong to us and are either in stock or awaiting collection from our suppliers.  Please note that we have a minimum order of £500 exclusive of taxes (£1,000 for export orders).

We invest a huge effort to ensure that the wines we buy meet our strict criteria and have pioneered the use of photography in checking all stock we receive. Once accepted, wines are stored in ideal conditions in our exclusive storage facility operated on our behalf by LCB in Wiltshire and customers can buy in complete confidence from us.
