Did you know it’s World Pizza Day? 🍕 The perfect excuse (as if we needed one) to enjoy a slice, or several, with a perfectly paired wine.

From classic Margherita with a bright Italian red to indulgent truffle and mushroom with an elegant white, we’re sharing some of our favourite pizza and wine pairings today.

Tried any of these combos? Or do you have a go-to pairing we need to know about? 🍷

We recently shared an important update with our members about the challenges we’re facing in 2025. With new duty regulations, rising National Insurance, higher business rates, and an environmental tax, we’re expecting an additional £5.5m in costs this year.

CEO Steve Finlan caught up with The Daily Telegraph’s Senior Business Reporter, Daniel Woolfson, to discuss how the wine industry is feeling the impact of these changes.

Our story

Passion before Profit ‒ it’s a principle we’ve lived by since 1874. It means we only source the wines our buyers truly believe in, not the ones that make the most money. It means that we can guarantee the fairest prices for you and for our growers. It means our profits go back into making our services even better. Most of all, it means that you can buy a bottle from us with complete confidence, knowing that 140 years of dedication, pride and care has gone into every sip. And if one of our wines isn’t to your taste, you can return it under our Society’s Promise.
