Why would two enthusiastic but unashamedly amateur wine drinkers start an enterprise such as Wine On Line?

Well, to be honest, we love our wine and have become increasingly frustrated by the lack of choice and specialist shops within easy reach. So, rather than just bemoaning our lot over a glass of superb Pinot shipped in from afar, we decided to do something about it ourselves.

We joined forces with our great friend and highly respected wine consultant Brian Peacock, Director of Ten Acre Wines who has been in the business for more years than he cares to admit, and created Wine On Line, a period shop in the heart of Presteigne. Our aim? To share quality, experience and value from around the world with many of the wines hand-selected at the wineries through relationships with long established independent vintners and growers.

From everyday drinking wines through to fine wines, excellent Champagnes and surprising equivalents, through to investment stock, we aim to provide our customers with a frequently changing, varied and exciting range. We believe that information is king – almost as important as the wine – so for the uninitiated, we have many years of personal research to help you select and match to your menu or to your palette. We shall be having regular tastings, and there will always be a bottle (or two!) open to sample on the premises.

If you are unable to visit the beautiful border town of Presteigne we are happy to take your order via telephone 01544 267675 or email and we can deliver to anywhere in the UK.

So why stop at wine?
