The principle area of the shop is devoted to fine French wines many of which are shipped directly from France. This enables the prices to be competitive and the quality maintained. From other parts of the world the stocks are primarily from small estate growers and owners or winemakers.
Proprietor Neil Bingham spent his formative wine years in Bordeaux, Burgundy, Spain, and Portugal where he helped harvest the grapes and make the wines. As well as appreciating a growing comprehension of the culture, wines and food of these regions.

Online independent wine merchant in Kent run by Piers Hamilton:
 All About Wine is the culmination of 20 years in the company of wine, not only in a social capacity but also as restauranteur, wine merchant and host to numerous private and corporate wine tastings.
My initial foray into the world of wine was as owner of a restaurant and wine bar in London’s West End. This was back in the eighties, in the days of the ‘wine bar’. Old World wine was the norm and the vineyards of New Zealand were only just being planted. Who could have thought that 20 years would bring such diversity to the wealth of wines available to us today.
12 years working for major high street wine specialists (Regional Operations Director) and 5 years as owner and director of a chain of 3 independent wine merchants have given me a depth of experience in sourcing, buying and selling good value, quality wines, from all corners of the world. In 2005 I was proud to be awarded the coveted and prestigious award of ‘Independent Wine Merchant of the Year’.
Busy bit interesting web site with online ordering and good tasting notes and info.

An online independent wine merchant based in Dorset:-
 A bin end is a peculiarly traditional wine trade term. Hardly does it conjure up visions of the wine treasures to be found in the caves and cellars of our wine merchants, but you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the riches and famous wines we have discovered and are serving up for you, to order online. In any case, our job at binends.com is to get amongst the wine merchants and to find these special wines at inexpensive prices, and bring them to you in tip-top condition for your enjoyment.
Good range of New and Old World wines, but selection may change. Good navigation around the site – online slaes by the case of 6 bottles – tasting notes

An upmarket fine wine merchant based in London:-
 We are a privately-owned wine merchant, founded by chairman Johnny Goedhuis over thirty years ago. With a head office in Central London and satellite offices in Suffolk, Northamptonshire and in Hong Kong, our award-winning company has grown to become one of England’s most respected vintners, attracting plaudits from both the wine trade and the press.
Goedhuis & Co is an engaging team of specialist fine wine merchants providing fellow wine lovers with an inspiring personal service that is a better way to buy and enjoy wine.
We are as committed to discovering and promoting unheralded producers from all around the world as we are to working with the most famous established estates’ First Growth Clarets and Grand Cru Burgundies. This approach ensures that not only do we continually source the very best wines from the very best vintages, but that we constantly develop our range of everyday wines, which offer both exceptionally delicious drinking and better value than the High Street.
Online sales (by the case of 12) – not much in the way of tasting notes, but at these prices you can be expected to know what you are looking for – or talk to them and benefit from their extensive knowledge and advice. Not that all the wines carry a high price ticket – there are some cheaper cuvées on offer.

We have selected a wide range of superb wines for you to try, and we provide more than just a wine tasting service. We can advise you on storage and usage, and in some cases we will try and help you to track down your favourite bottle!
I am not here to tell you what to drink, why to drink, or how to drink, however I do guarantee an interesting, courteous and civilised wine tasting.
Somewhat old-fashioned, but effective website. Attends a large number of country shows where you can taste. No online ordering or tasting notes. Works in conjunction with Shawbury Vintners.
