A great find. I'm a big fan of English wine and when I lived in Hampshire, I used to visit vineyards in Kent and Sussex. Sadly many have now gone. Now that I'm retired and living in Scotland,... See more

I was struggling to find vegan British wines at a supermarket so I found this company online. My first delivery of half a dozen bottles certainly hasn’t disappointed me. A mix of red, white, sparkling... See more

Thanks for a very fast delivery

Thanks for a very fast delivery. I have been very good and not tasted them yet saving up for christmas. Glad to support british farmers and workers. Bottles look good with good tasting notes on them, very reasonably priced. Thanks Jonn

All wine drunk so far very good

All wine drunk so far very good. Very prompt delivery thank you. I know it's tricky but if packing could be a bit more environmentally friendly it would be even better.

Thank you for a great review. We understand our packaging needs to be more environmentally friendly - we are always looking for more sustainable options. Unfortunately the environmental impact of our current packaging is lower than sending wines out multiple times due to breakages which is why we use the air sacks. However, we do have an alternative that we're transit trialling and we hope to roll this out soon. Thanks so much for your feedback, we hope you enjoyed your wines and we look forward to welcoming you back to The British Wine Cellar again soon!

Great wine from this country.

I have bought these items as a Christmas present so can’t review the actual wine. But the transaction was quick and easy dispatched quickly and very well packaged. Just a small thing and I know a lot of companies are changing the way they package but there was a lot of plastic to protect the bottles. I understand that the product arriving unbroken is a must and I have bought from this company to support our own produce market. Just a a little comment but I know the wine will be very well received .

Can only comment on delivery which was speedy. This was bought for a present so no idea how they taste but like the idea of supporting anything made in the uk.

Xmas Gifting

Have had some British wines which have been lovely, now purchased 3 bottles as a present for someone else to try. Delivery excellent, well packaged. Have to wait and see what recipient thinks of my choice.

Save you money and energy and don’t buy from Wine cellar

I ordered three bottles of wine and none of them got delivered. I cancelled an appointment the day it was supposed to be delivered in order to make sure I was at home. I was told by a wine cellar representative that the bottles of wine are on the road and due to be delivered to me that day. I was then told at around 6 pm that the bottles will not be delivered to me and I stayed in my house the whole time for no reason. I will never buy from here again as I did not receive my items and was a waste of my time and money. I would highly recommend sourcing from other wine sellers

We are sorry that you don't feel your experience was a positive one with us. We dispatched your order the same day you placed it and put it on a next day service to try and get it to you as quickly as possible. Unfortunately there is a nationwide driver shortage that is affecting all aspects of supply chain - the driver did attempt delivery several times but on the day you specifically wanted it, it wasn't possible to get a driver to you. We called the courier so many times that day trying to make sure your order got delivered. It wasn't a representative you spoke to, it was the owner of the business who was trying his absolute hardest (on his birthday) to get the courier to send a driver, but the courier unfortunately couldn't do this due to the shortage.
Your wines would have been delivered the next morning, but you requested a refund instead, which we immediately issued. We're disappointed that you've left a negative review, and we were disappointed with the email threats you sent us - we really did our absolute best, and we sent a refund as soon as you asked for it. We would love you to shop with us again at some point so we can give you a more positive experience, and wish you all the best.
