If you only like buying the odd glass or two then Virgin Wines is not the site for you. It mainly caters for those buying cases of wine, but as I am a wine loser I get really good value for money buying cases. I love my wine but I am no expert, I often have a tough job picking the right bottle off the supermarket or off license shelf - and I am often disappointed by my choice. With Virgin Wines it's all been done for you, I just relay on their experts advice of picking the right bottles.

As you would expect from a company from Richard Branson they do their best to debunk wine snobbery and their sites gives you easy to understand descriptions of the wines. My last purchase was a case of Aussie red for a BBQ part I was hosting. Hot. The site recommended it as ideal for a BBQ, with bottles like Rochecombe Tasmanian Pinot Noir 2005 and Two Blues Limestone Coast Fleurieu Shiraz 2003 being two of favourites included in the case. Come the day and the great British whether it was downpour and all was canceled. I was only mildly miffed knowing I'd have the wine to myself lol.

Another nice site feature is that the wines all include an Average Customer Rating, and with over 1364 ratings on some wines it's a conclusive poll.

They have a price promise also, where they give money back if you find the wine cheaper elsewhere. I have usually ordered over the phone to receive extra advice and because I like the personal touch.
Cases start around £50 with delivery about £5.99. They have usually delivered by 2 working days and no longer than 3 or 4. The wine has always been well packaged.
