We find exciting wines, so you can enjoy life.

Good wine is more than just a commodity!
A pleasant glass of regional wine, enjoyed in the company of friends is one of life’s great joys. This enjoyment is surely enhanced when the product has been made by people with passion, dedication and sometimes complete lunacy! In this age of “big business rules”, it takes real tenacity to be a small regional winemaker, especially in France. We are delighted to tell you that they are alive and surviving. The good producers are flourishing! We are starting to increase our range of organic wines, so check out these unique wines.

Quality, value and pleasure, our driving force to bring you:-

“Wines with real personality for ‘pure’ enjoyment”.

Sadly most of the major branded wines lack personality. They are ‘made’ in factory wineries to a recipe used by flying winemakers wherever they are in the world; sanitised, pasteurised and heavily filtered to ensure that a commodity is produced for ‘consistency’, not character.

Come and join us in discovering ‘real’ regional wines, created by small producers, driven by ‘passion’. You will discover some unique wines with personality, emanating from the dedication and enthusiasm only to be found from these ‘boutique’ producers. Here you will find ‘pure’ enjoyment in your glass of wine.

On this website you will only find wines that we have personally shipped from the vineyard, offering you a sense of exclusivity. Our selection process starts firstly on the grounds of quality through our wines tastings. Then we check the price, followed by deciding if there is a genuine balance between quality and price. Finally we ask the questions: Does this wine have something extra to offer our wine customers? Is it an organic wine? Is it a regional wine with a difference? Will the wine-taste suite our customers’ tastes? In other words, we strive to find that unique point of difference from the ‘major’ brands. When all these questions have a ‘tick in the box’, we start to negotiate! More importantly, we start to build that essential 'rapport' with our French and other regional producers!

We do not expect our customers to pay ‘over the odds’ for any of their wines. Equally we do expect our producers to receive a fair price for the wines, that they have made so well and sell to us, so that the wines you buy will give ‘pure’ enjoyment with every sip!
