Aldeby Wines is a specialist merchant focussing on the wines of Languedoc-Roussillon. We import wines from small quality focussed producers in the South of France; we are currently working with around eighteen producers who are making some of the best traditional style wines in the region, but also wines that are truly innovative . The theme that links them all is a great respect for the land and a desire to show what it can produce.

Bordeaux & Beyond is an internet wine retailer specialising in the sourcing and direct importation of wines from independent French vignerons. All of our wines are personal selections and not usually found in the UK. We import directly and operate on minimal overheads so that our customers get the maximum wine value from each £ they spend. Our wines to taste at the Festival will include: superb family "grower Champagne" from Domi Moreau - ideal for Christmas; a silky super 2009 Givry red Burgundy; several prestige Bordeaux reds & whites from the Haut-Medoc on the left bank, as well as right bank classics from St Emilion & Pomerol. Not forgetting fine Loire Valley wines, Macon white Burgundy and artisan wines from the south of France. We are proud to be a niche supplier and only stock wines that we are perfectly happy to drink or to cellar ourselves.

We are an independent specialist importer of Rioja, Albarino and other quality wine and brandy from Spain. We stock a range of Crianza, Reserva and Gran Reserva red Spanish wine, plus 60, 75 and 100 year old brandies.

Over the last 20 years our goal has always remained the same - to source good quality, value for money wine from small bodegas whose focus is on quality rather than quantity. It is therefore unlikely that you will find any of our wines in the UK supermarkets, wine warehouses or newspaper wine offers.

We would like to introduce you to some of these great Spanish wines and brandies, and that you will be tempted to try some and become as enthusiastic about them as we are.

If you are unable to visit us at the Wokingham Wine Festival you can find us at www.decanterwines.co.uk.

Svenja and Ben founded Everyday Wines Ltd in 2010. We started importing wine from France for our own table several years ago because we like to drink wine, not necessarily every day, but often. Without the deepest of pockets and with limited time we struggle to find good affordable wine in the supermarkets or from the big wine merchants. We have now decided to share our passion for Southern French wines. Everyday Wines imports wine from small to medium sized producers in the Languedoc Roussillon region of France. Keeping overheads low, and stocking a small range of excellent wines, we can supply wines for £5, which are far better than those you will find anywhere else in the UK at that price level. We have focussed on the Languedoc Roussillon area of France for several reasons. Not only does the warm, sunny climate produces grapes with lots of flavour but the area is also stuffed full of wine producers all competing to produce the very best wines they can. The lack of "big name" wines helps keeps the prices low compared to the wines from Bordeaux or Burgundy for example. Orders can be placed at our online store. Our business currently focuses on customers in Southeast London (SE3, SE10, SE7) where we deliver free of charge. However, we can also arrange to ship to other parts of the UK on request.

Founded in 2005, Gastro Nicks imports delicatessen fare direct from small producers both in the UK and internationally. We added a range of Sicilian wines in 2009 and a DOCG Prosecco from Valdobbiadene in 2010. These wines were chosen for their clever blends and indigenous grapes and compatability with a wide selection of foods. All are available at the many events that we attend during the year and on the internet. Alternatively, anyone passing is welcome to call in.

Harlequin Wines, established in 2000 by Martin Bayne, an established dental surgeon in York, is a company dedicated to quality. Our philosophy is simple. Search long and hard to find the new, unusual and the delightful. Then dealing direct with the wine-makers we can ensure quality, and value for money. Harlequin Wines prides itself on its customer service and if you are not happy with any purchase we offer a full refund/no quibble guarantee. We have found that many mail order companies offer very ordinary wines, and did not cater for people who were looking for quality, interest and value for money. Internet sales, mail order and select trade customers have grown over the years. The idea for Harlequin Wines came during a visit to the Franken region of Germany. It is a region that does not feature very heavily in most wine merchant's lists. So we started selling wines of the Franken region of Germany. Now we source and have greater sales of French wine. We feature Alsace, the Loire, Beaujolais, and the Languedoc. All our producers we know and are visited regularly on tasting trips. Some relationships go back more than 20 years. This year we have added Italy to our portfolio.
