HarperWells have a reputation for supplying extraordinary wines from all over the world. We deal in rare parcels from tiny boutique producers through to the great first growths and everything in-between; great wines for occasions, collections or investment.

But our clients have asked for more!   Time and time again we have been asked to discover more great wines for ‘everyday drinking’, great, affordable wines to crack open on a Friday evening, great wines from well-known producers, to enjoy with friends and alongside simple dishes – The HarperWells Taste Case was born!

How Does It Work?

Our buying team will put together different cases of wine for you to enjoy, there will be a new one available every month. These wines will be selected from the very best wines they have found from all over the world. We only work with genuine family owned estates of repute so every bottle will represent its region of origin and the personalities behind them.

You can easily collect them from us or have them delivered direct to your door along with some tasting notes to help you enjoy them at your leisure.

What Kind of Wines Will They Be?

You can expect stunning wines in these cases sourced from all over the world, with the emphasis always on quality at the £7 to £10 pound price range. We have unearthed some truly wonderful wines in this price range, using exactly the same criteria we employ for choosing our prestige selections, namely;

• Every single wine will have passed our rigorous taste panel.
• Excellent examples of the grape variety, region and winemaking philosophy.
• Special selections and rare parcels not readily available elsewhere.
• Great value for money.

How to destroy 3,200 bottles of "Champagne"

Last week, Belgian customs authorities seized and destroyed 3,200 bottles of Californian Andre sparkling wine that was discovered en route to a cruise ship. Andre, produced by Gallo, is one of several American sparkling wine brands that are still labeled 'California Champagne'. The shipment also contained other bottles labeled 'sparkling wine', which were not destroyed. EU law states that the name Champagne refers only to wines produced in the French appellation of Champagne. Other wines labeled as 'Champagne' can be seized as counterfeit. Click here for a VIDEO
