Your favourite wine experience?
"Winding our way through the narrow, cobbled streets of Montepulciano, a Tuscan hilltop town, sampling their famous wines from the various enotecas. For me, Tuscany is a food and wine lovers paradise and we visit as often as possible."
Tina
Our shop at 56 Andover Road has had a few different owners over the years, but it's been manned by Tina for longer than it hasn't!
"My partner at the time worked for Wine rack so I would wait in the shop after I finished my job for us to go home, working whilst I waited. I did a day a week and was mystery shopped by the South West Area Manager! Over the years I would manage this shop and the one on Bath Road"
Lucie
Lucie is an exceptionally knowledgable and well travelled lover of food and drink who we'd known for years as a customer. Luckily for us, she joined the business in 2021 to manage our social media and email channels, as well as assisting with the day to day running of the shop and events in The Wine Library.
Most memorable dining experience?
"Without a doubt, it has to be Ynyshir in Wales. 30+ courses over 4-5 hours, a fun wine list, creative cocktails, a DJ blasting out some tunes, and a disco ball. Fun dining, not fine dining for sure."
