About the Wine Bar

Why would two enthusiastic amateur wine drinkers start an enterprise such as Wine Online?
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 Ltd, who has been in the business for more years than he cares to admit, and created Wine Online, a period shop in the heart of Presteigne.

Our aim?
To share quality, experience and value from around the world. Many of the wines are hand-selected at the wineries, acquired 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, email or throught our online shop and we can deliver to anywhere in the UK.

So why stop at wine?
We are also offering a few of our favourite things from Belgium;

  • Handmade real Belgian Chocolate from a small Chocalaterie in Belgium
  • Real Trappist Beers from small breweries that we highly recommend and drink ourselves
  • Local Ciders from Dunkertons Press
  • Welsh Whiskey from the Penderyn Distillery
