Had this champagne served in a restaurant in London and liked it so much went searching online and was delighted to find it at Vineking at a good price. Ordering was very straightforward but the new website had a glitch and the case was sent to the billing address not the delivery address. A real shame. VineKing we’re very apologetic and I have a £25 voucher . The champagne, when I eventually got it, is superb for the price.
For years now I have been buying Boutinot Coteaux Cotes du Rhone from the VINEKING. It is really tasty and reliable and family and friends always compliment it on its fine taste and slightly fuller body. Thoroughly recommended and excellent value.
Absolutely delicious
Went in asking for a right bank and was recommended this wine. I hadn’t heard of the area before so was intrigued. It did not disappoint, complex with a nice finish. Made the Pinot noir we had the next night feel pretty average! Thanks for the recommendation x
I thought the Pinot Noir was authentic and very good value. I have not tried the Chardonnay yet but do not expect to be disappointed.
My review is limited to this wine's appearance: it's got a lovely label. I haven't drunk any yet!
Recommended by Hamish as supplies of the Sottano were low. An excellent, robust, full bodied Malbec. Pleasant drinking either on it's own or with your food of choice. Not tried before but would definitely purchase again, especially during the 20% discount promotion! Cheers

Delightful wine, easy drinking, well priced. The adjective that came to mind on first taste was 'friendly' - it's exactly how a sparkling rose should taste - happy, fruity, refreshing. Perfect for a Friday night pick me up in front of a rom com, or with friends in the garden.
I’ve been drinking Les Coteaux for at least 13 years. My only issue is the number of people I’ve told to buy it so when it’s in stock it goes very quickly. For the price I don’t think there’s a better Côte du Rhone out there.
While dinner party guests arrived we enjoyed a couple of bottles of Gosset Extra Brut. It was perfect. The ‘fizz’ was definitely an ice breaker, and there was chatter and laughter from the get go, which continued into the dining room.
From the southern part of this region comes a wine with class, and a great price to go with it. It’s a taste sensation, stimulating your senses with a rich soaking of dark fruits, combined with cherry and spice on the nose. If you want to impress the neighbours m without having to spend huge amounts of money to go with it, this is the wine to share (alternatively, keep it all to yourself and enjoy).

Batts Hill Gin and Coffee Liquor is absolutely exceptional and stands head and shoulders above the rest! Supporting local businesses is a priority for us, and Batts Hill has won our hearts with their outstanding product and prompt "next-day" delivery service, earning a permanent spot on our weekly shopping list.
Without a doubt, the coffee liquor is our absolute favorite – it's a true delight! Delano's friendly and swift service adds an extra layer of satisfaction to our experience. We can't recommend Batts Hill enough; it's a true gem in the world of spirits and liquors. 🍸☕🌟
Purchased this wine as one of the Vineking's excellent weekly offers and it did not disappoint. Will order again in the future.
A very entertaining tasting. Very good wines, excellent nibbles, nice company, very knowledgeable presentation.
I really enjoy these wine tasting evenings... Frank's enthusiasm is infectious, the guest (Seb) was very knowledgeable & I like that you meet new people as seating in tables of 6 (usually) means you might meet 4 new wine buffs. The only grouse I have is the wine itself... in 2 events I've attended, I sampled c 25 wines & only 2 of which I've liked (same with my guests). Is the format just not conducive to having the wines at their best... maybe less wines being sampled per evening, clean glasses per tasting etc might help... & less rushed
I enjoyed all the wines on offer at the tasting which I would describe as above average and showing S.A. is still a location for nice wines at a decent price. The dried meats and especially the cheeses on offer were really good and generous, making a very pleasant evening.
I visited the vineyard 6 months ago and sampled these beauties …. so when the Vineking’s email popped into my inbox there was a broad smile on my face
Just like Corsica.Mediterranean French but with a slightly wild edge.PInot Noir with a hint of pepper I think is closest.
My wife and I had to open two bottles (separate nights - just in case you thought otherwise!) to see if there may be a difference between bottles. Can't quite put a finger on what it is about the Domaine Guillaman Rouge (Merlot-Cabernet) but it is not, to us, a smooth drinker. There seems to be a bit of heat when in the back of the throat. The wine isn't totally unpleasant, otherwise it would have received less stars, but we don't normally put a cork back into a bottle of wine to save for another day.
I am always a wee bit wary of picking up 6 x bottles of any wine, with Chardonnay being a particular risky option - you just never know how the winemaker has influenced what is in the bottle. However the Domaine Guillaman offering is a really nice drinkable wine, which my wife and I both enjoyed. Well done Eric & The Team for the recommendation.
V much looking forward to an evening with the usual high standards we have come to expect from this Reigate institution.
Really enjoyed this evening. Erik gave an extremely informative presentation about the different types of fizz and took the time to answer all of our questions. It was nice to be seated with other people and this made the evening feel intimate and social. We also appreciated the platters of bread, olives, cheese and charcuterie. I thoroughly enjoyed the evening and would certainly recommend it! Thank you Erik and team!
I chanced across the 2017 a couple of years back and thought it was a cut above most at what was £9 at the time.
I didn’t see any for intervening years but thought the 2020 would be worth trying-and it was!
Incredibly smooth, fresh, full of forest fruits and a lingering taste that encourages you to finish the bottle.
I will definitely buy more.
Lovely
Looking forawrd to it
