Welcome to WoodWinters Online Shop for wines & whiskies.
 

Drinking wine is about pleasure and should be fun whether you’re buying party wine sub £5 or you’re a canny claret collector. Our shop is … small; compact and bijou. This helps us to focus on our main objective to only list the best. There is simply no room for shelf fillers. Our award winning wine list is a roll call of many of the best producers from around the world.

We have never and will never (strong words we know) sell wines on price promotion. We don’t sell baked beans either.


We do all we can to make our service friendly and personal. We treat our customers like wine-loving friends; pointing them in the right direction and getting to know what they like. And when we know what you like, we can deliver more of it!

Have you got the latest copy of Decanter Magazine yet? It's reporting on all the medal winners at the Decanter World Wine Awards including the UK Best Independent Wine Shops. We are absolutely delighted to tell you we were the only Scottish merchant to make the shortlist and not only that we were runners-up for the whole of the UK! And when you see the competition…

"WoodWinters came close ... it is the kind of local wine merchant everyone should have: a friendly presence, terrific selection of wines, and great personal service, delivered with infectious enthusiasm."

Douglas attended the awards dinner on Monday and is seen above collecting the Independent Wine Merchant of the Year: Runner Up from the Retailers Awards Chairman Anthony Rose.

To celebrate, we're giving away a bottle of wine to the first 12 people who come in and shout ‘Congratulations’ or something similar – extra points for creativity.

Wedding Lists with WoodWinters

Is another toaster the last thing you need? Would you like a ready-made wine cellar full of great drinking and age-worthy wines? We can put together a range of wines, champagnes and whisky as part of or as your whole wedding list. 

We can include anything from single bottles of everyday drinking wines to great wines that need ageing and could be used as an investment. With input from yourseleves we would include products at all price points to suit all your guests' budgets and would be able to discuss their purchases with them so they feel happy they have bought the best wines for you.

We can also supply wines and Champagnes for the big day itself. If you have a favourite wine you would like or wish to have a better and more interesting choice, we can supply wines that can be cheaper than the hotel's wine selection even with their corkage charge included. Give us a call to discuss your requirements and we'll arrange a free tasting so you can judge for yourselves.

If you would like more information please call Shane on 01786 834 894 or drop into the shop.
