Welcome to the Withington Wines’ Website, and just as if you were really at our cellar door, we would say “Make yourself at home, and have a look around”. We have tried to keep it simple, and user friendly, so enjoy your tour, and if your queries are not answered here, please get in touch. The internet may be a wonderful communications medium but a personal letter or call, still remains best for us,and we would be delighted to hear from you.

As for our wines – we have always believed that the best spokesman for the wines must be the wines themselves, so we urge you to try them, either from one of our outlets as indicated here, or simply to order directly from us.

With best wishes

The wine world has lost a legend in the passing last week of John Avery MW, and Chairman of the well know Avery’s of Bristol. Whilst universally acknowledged as one of the great characters in the wine world, what many do not know, is of the great role he played over the years in creating a platform for South African wines.

He had visited Darling on 3 occasions and those who came across him on these visits can testify to the splendid time spent in his presence and the wealth of knowledge he loved to impart, with many a fine story attached. For him, great wines were to be sharted with friends, irresepctive of whether they were so called wine experts or not ….in his book, everyone should have the opportunity to experience a great wine. So in spite of the fact that he knew that he would be enjoying the delicious wines of Darling (which he did !), his suitcase would always contain something special from his own cellar in England to share with us. Inter alia we were spoiled with a Vosne Romanee 1959 and Chateaux Margaux 1983!

We think of his family particularly as they mourn his passing and may he rest in peace.

“…….I’ve just received my wine delivery and I would like to express how impressed I am with your service. Prompt, friendly and efficient – many businesses could take  lessons from you guys. Clearly customer service plays an important role in the way you conduct your business.”
