Two very independent wine shops: London W9 & SW6. We import everything ourselves from Germany (dry Riesling über Alles), France, Italy, Spain and a bit of California.
Exquisite meal at Silver Bitch in Chiswick for our staff Christmas dinner. A wonderful evening! We ate and drank with the Gods. Additional thanks to Eduard and Conrad who were looking after us.

What could be better than a Wine Tasting at The Winery Fulham after a dim, drizzly, grizzly day? Tuesday’s top scorer was Raimbault’s newly arrived Sancerre 2024.

We were picking up in Burgundy last month. First stop, the Guillemot family in Savigny-les-Beaune. In the photo, brothers Philippe and Vincent with parents and David M. Beautiful, perfumed Burgundian Pinot Noir. We have one in our line-up at The Winery Fulham tomorrow, 09.12.25 from 17.00-20.00h.

Deliveries to Scotland! Not something we do frequently. Clemens Busch magnums door to door delivery from the Mosel to Timberyard in Edinburgh. Then off to the Borders (via Fife?!).
Stopping off at the fantastic Tebay Services in both directions.

On the road again, picking up in Germany. After a long drive, a quick overnighter at Zum Krug. Gänsebraten mit Rotkohl (roast goose with red cabbage) with a 1966 Hocheimer Neuberg Riesling Spätlese by Aschrott. Good call, Josef Junior!

It may have been cold outside but the intrepid (or, rather, the warmly-dressed) made it through. Querbach’s 2008 Riesling tied with Champagne Amyot’s Cuvée Réservée at the top.

Glorious aged Riesling and aged Pinot Noir! Our latest pallet from Peter Querbach has just arrived from the Rheingau. We can all revel again in timeless dry Rieslings from 2010, 2008 and 2002, sweet 1994 and 2007 Pinot. We may even have one open at our tasting on Wednesday…just saying.
November 16, 2025 at 1:28 PM
1-2-3 shipments from Italy! All in one day 😅. Two from Tuscany and one from Piedmont. La Colombina Brunello, boom. Dreolino Chianti Rufina, yum. Pugnane Barolo, kerr-pow!

Heralding a flurry over the coming weeks, a welcome arrival from Pascal Chalon in the southern Rhône. Pure, fragrant, deep saturated fruit. Powerful, yet elegant. Biodynamic. No surprise that some of the labels & names have changed again but La Petite Ourse and La Grande Ourse remain as benchmarks.
November 1, 2025 at 3:49 PM
Busy buzzy tasting at The Winery Fulham last night! Close at the top: a draw between Ursa Major Blanc, Pascal Chalon’s remarkably elegant southern Rhône white & Viña Sastre’s Ribera del Duero Crianza. Followed by Gerrit Walter’s sparkling Riesling Sekt & Wrath’s grownup Syrah. See you again soon!

Jonas & Martin Müllen, son and father team based in Traben-Trarbach on the Mosel. Utterly distinctive dry Rieslings from seriously steep slate vineyards that have an ethereal, shimmering beauty. The only grower(s) along the Mosel who exclusively use big old oak barrels rather than stainless steel.

It was great to see Rosi & Anthony Hanson again in Burgundy! Beautiful food, wine, company and location. 🙏🙏❤️
September 22, 2025 at 9:28 PM
That was a busy tasting, spilling out onto the pavement! Our taboo wine, Hébrard’s St-Émilion Grand Cru Harmonie 2011, came out top, followed by the Desconcierto Rías Baixas Albariño. And then to Da Daniela's for a staff unwind.

And, when in the Beaujolais, visiting Anne-Sophie Dubois is always a pleasure. Admiring her new cellar and tasting her various Fleurie bottlings. Also, tasting her boyfriend Sylvain Martel’s Juliénas. 2023 was a generous vintage but 2024 was tiny. 2023s are really expressive.
September 14, 2025 at 1:39 PM
It’s dfficult not to stop and admire La Roche de Solutré whenever we’re in the Mâconnais and Beaujolais.
September 12, 2025 at 4:08 PM
You are invited to our next tasting on Tuesday 16th September from 17.00-20.00h at our shop in Clifton Road W9 featuring Champagne and wines from Galicia, Mosel, Rheinhessen, Bordeaux and Sardinia. bit.ly/4mf72ig

Bonjour Aurélie ! It was a sunny day in southern Burgundy at the tail end of May. Cheveau very much on form across the range from the various Mâcons up to the multiple Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Crus. Check out the 3D map of the Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Crus!

Rewind a few months. Burgundy. Always chilled at Guillemot. Vincent showed us the latest wines – perfumed, silky & mouth-filling: our favourite Pinots in Savigny-les-Beaune. A treat to taste 2005 Serpentières. Mature, vigorous & haunting. “Would you like to take it for your dinner?” Yes, please!

We were asked to do another Wine Tasting for Formosa Garden. Despite the very real threat of rain, it was very busy. Winners were our very new dry Slate Riesling @weingut_deutschherrenhof in Trier & Champagne Amyot, our top seller for close to 30 years. Page 3 pics @cherylprax.bsky.social
September 2, 2025 at 8:54 AM
Top scorers at last night’s tasting in Fulham were Deutschherrenhof’s Schiefer dry Riesling followed by Didier Roche’s Pécharmant Cuvée Veuve Roches. Lovely atmosphere, thanks for coming and see you at The Winery Maida Vale on Tuesday 16th of September!

Meet Carina Jüngling at Paulinshof. We have always enjoyed Paulinshof dry Rieslings & after two trips to Altes Zollhaus Beilstein where Paulinshof popped up on their wine list, now finally was the time to drop in, taste & buy. They’ll be coming back with us in the van. Slatey Mosel magic. Excited!
August 12, 2025 at 7:38 PM
Meet Sebastian Oberbillig of Deutschherrenhof in the outskirts of Trier on the Mosel.
His dry Rieslings (and one Pinot Noir) are as vibrant as his labels. And yes, they’ll be coming back with us in the van next weekend.
