Number Three – 50 Best Indies 2025

We are absolutely delighted to have placed at number Three in the  Top Independent Wine Merchants in the UK!! We were selected by a panel of industry experts who took into account every facet of our business, from retail to wholesale through to online, social media, tastings and events.

We have been named in the Top 10 every year since this list began, and this is the third year in a row that we have been in the Top 3.

This award has been awarded by Harpers Wine & Spirit, the leading industry publication, who every year celebrate the UK’s thriving independent drinks retailing sector with their list of Top 50 Indies. We were joined in the list by some truly fantastic businesses, many of whom have become good friends over the years.

We are so proud of this achievement, and would like to thank all of the friends, family, customers, suppliers and of course staff who have made this possible. Onwards and upwards – but first, a glass of Champagne!
