The Wine Merchant California Collection is out!

Every year we invite UK importers to send us their best California wines, and our group of eight indies tastes them all and selects their favourite 50. You can read all about this year’s selections in our supplement - the print version is landing now and the digital edition is available via our website.

It’s time to enter the only wine competition where all the wines are indie exclusives … and all the judges are indie merchants.
All the details you need are at winemerchanttop100.com and you can email claire@winemerchantmag.com for your entry form. Good luck!

Our February edition is out now. All the updates you need from the independent wine trade, and a few you don’t but we’ve included anyway. In this issue: Taurus Wines; the suppliers not passing on duty increases; what happened to The Wine Treasury; a Greek wine masterclass; a pét nat panel tasting; a focus on New Zealand wines; Matt Walls; the wines indies would consign to Room 101; tasting dates for your diary; a horrible quiz; a stupid cartoon … come on, you know how it works by now. Subscribe for £85 or read it online for free at www.winemerchantmag.com.

We're up to 197 entries in this year's Wine Mercha

We're up to 197 entries in this year's Wine Merchant Survey of Independents! You have until Sunday night (Feb 1) to take part. Possibly Monday morning too if you're very lucky.

Every year brokenhearted indies fling themselves at us, sobbing, saying they can't believe they missed the deadline. Don't be one of those people this February.

You know what to do: the link you need is on our website and very likely in your email inbox. Go go go!

Our first issue of 2026 is here and if you're even

Our first issue of 2026 is here and if you're even vaguely interested in the independent wine trade you need to read it from cover to fragrant cover.

All the news, views and reviews you demand of us, plus honourable mentions for Bill Clinton, tumbleweed, Pac-Man, horse boxes, Rutland Water, Kylie, Billy Joel, two Tim Watsons, Easter egg hunts and an attempt to convince you that wine is never improved by food.

You can subscribe to the print edition for £85 a year, or hack into the free digital version via our website. We don't know how to build firewalls, so fill your boots.
