Twelve Green Bottles

When we returned to the UK in 2013 we assumed (wrongly) that we’d be able to continue in the same vein. Sadly we found the specialist shops we tried to be quite stuffy, and when we bought wine from the supermarket we felt that there didn’t seem to be any relationship between quality and price, and their wine range simply didn’t compare to what we’d become used to in Spain. We then tried buying online but we’d often receive a case of wines with one or two good ones and ten or eleven very mediocre to bad wines. We’d already decided to start a new business here in the UK and we settled on wine as we knew that we would be able to offer a wine buying experience similar to that offered by our friend in Spain.
