Mr & Mrs Fine Wine scoop prestigious award

THE team at Mr & Mrs Fine Wine have been raising a glass to success after winning the International Wine Challenge’s Central England Regional Merchant of the Year award.

The IWC is one of the world’s biggest wine competitions, which celebrates the shops that bring the wines to our tables. For an independent merchant like Mr & Mrs Fine Wine, the award is a huge vote of confidence. So what does it take to stand out in a crowded eld of wine sellers? According to the judges, it’s a mix of passion, knowledge and that personal touch. Independent shops can’t compete with supermarkets on size, but they can offer something far more valuable: expert advice, carefully chosen wines you won’t find everywhere else and a warm welcome that makes customers feel like friends.

This award is recognition of the role Mr & Mrs Fine Wine plays in the community, from helping customers pick the perfect bottle for a celebration, to championing small producers from across the globe. It is also reminder that world-class wine expertise can be found right on our doorstep!

Mr & Mrs Fine Wine is also thrilled to announce their upcoming Winter Wine Fair, to be held at the Saracen’s Head Hotel on Friday 21st November from 5-8.30pm.

It’s always a great night with lots of fun and the perfect start to the ‘festive season’.
