Wine Company, The

Six generations of outstanding wine knowledge.
My family can trace our wine merchant roots back six generations in Colchester and throughout this time our philosophy has changed very little. At The Wine Company we are dedicated to the search for excellent wines offering truly good value for money, more often than not from individual family producers.

Our shop in Gosbecks Road is a wine lovers paradise - visitors can browse our portfolio of over 1000 wines which are on display and available to buy by the bottle. In addition, our knowledgeable, friendly and highly trained staff are on hand to provide expert advice on every day wines as well as many of the greatest wines of the world. We firmly believe in trying before you buy and there is always a large selection of wines open and ready for you to taste.

Quality and value are paramount, and our programme of wine tastings and dinners showcases our huge range of wines, from good value drinking wines to fine wines and rare bottles. Mostly held in either our tasting cellar or library in our Gosbecks Road premises, our events are suitable for every level of wine knowledge, from novices, to those with more expertise and experience. Most events are accompanied by either a delicious luncheon, dinner or canapés using only the very best of local produce - so expect vibrant, fresh flavours with contemporary presentation, carefully prepared by our in-house team of chefs, lead by Craig Formoy our renowned executive chef. For details on our wine tastings and events visit www.thewinecompany.co.uk/tastings.

Home delivery is a specialty, bringing our best finds to your door quickly and efficiently. You will find our website www.thewinecompany.co.uk easy to navigate and a vital tool for buying wines for home delivery. Our wine advisors are available to speak with on the telephone 9am-6pm Monday to Saturday should you require advice, and you can purchase wines from us with confidence, as we will refund every penny should you not be totally satisfied. Richard Wheeler, President.
