Hello and Thank You for visiting our web site.
R&B Wines is a family business
run by Rudy and Brigitte de Boer; which has been trading since 1999
- we specialise in supplying mixed bottle cases of speciality wines
to private clients,
coupled with a personalised service.
The advantage of selling mixed bottle cases is that this will allow you to experiment and "mix-and-match" without having to buy complete cases.
Once you have tasted your bottle selection, you can always come back to us to purchase
larger individual quantities; which we can store for you in our 'client account' at OCTAVIAN
Cellars in Corsham if you do not have suitable storage facilities yourself.
To Order:
Please
note that this is an Information Only web
site;
so to order please contact Rudy on +44-(0)771 880 6337
or email him at
randbwines@aol.com
We are an INTERNET ONLY business (we have no shop); therefore
our minimum order is for 1case/12 bottles
of 75cl, which qualifies for FREE UK DELIVERY; but this can be a mix of any bottles listed on our web site.
All wines listed are our own stock and are currently available - we do not 'broke' for third parties, so wine
provenance and quality are strictly under our own control.
All prices are
per bottle and include VAT @ 20%; and are offered subject to remaining unsold and official confirmation by invoice.

on the navigation panel on the left to review our current stock,
prices and tasting notes from professional wine reviews.

(St Estephe), Segla (Margaux) and Bahans Haut
Brion (Graves).
-
CHABLIS We are particularly fond and impressed by the wines from Domaine William Fevre, and are building -up a portfolio of their wines from good Chablis vintages.
These are excellent value and they make for a wonderful drink by themselves, or with fish and white meats.
-
WHITE BURGUNDY:
Corton Charlemagne:
Bonneau
du Martray
which is generally considered the best domaine for these
impressive wines.
Meursault: Good value from
Verget
and top quality from
Jobard.
Chassagne Montrachet:
great price/quality
from
Jean-Noel Gagnard.
Puligny Montrachet: we specialise on
Domaine Paul Pernot who makes wines in the classic style which are fairly priced, as he is more in love with his wines than becoming famous (you pay for the wine not a the name; his 1999 Bienvenues Batard Montrachet is one of the best I have ever had!).
For more top quality Maconais wines
try
Guffens-Heynen..
-
RED BURGUNDY:
Gevery Chambertin
Area; Chambertin, Chambertin Clos de Beze, Griottes Chambertin and Le Musigny/Chambolle-Musigny, we recommend you try the wines from
Arlaud and Joseph Drouhin, (Griottes Chambertin is the smallest Grand Cru in Gevery Chambertin, so these wines are very rare).
Vosne Romanee: we stock the excellent Grand Cru La Grande Rue from Francois Lamarche; the vineyard is situated right next to Romanee Conti, which is considered the best Burgundy wine anywhere, so this says something for the potential of La Grande Rue.
Morey St Denis: for red burgundy in the classical style with lots of taste, yet good aging potential, we strongly recommend the Clos des Lambrays.
Nuits St George:
Robert Chevillon, he makes beautifully round wines with lots of purity. These are some of the best wines from this appellation, which can usually be drunk a lot sooner than some of the other wines from this region.
Good Value Drinking Burgundies; you will not be disappointed with the reds from Paul Pernot; he is better known for his whites, so his red wines have a very good price to quality level in the region of £10-17 per bottle.
At the higher quality level, we have an excellent
selection from
Dominique
Laurent.
-
RHONE:
Chateauneuf de Pape (both Red and White)
we particularly recommend the top CNDP
Clos des Papes from Domaine Paul Avril,
and the excellent price/quality Domaine Vieux Donjon.
Vacqueyras is a lighter style of wine to CNDP, but they are excellent 'drinkers' from good vintages like 1998 and 2003, also price is very attractive.
Cote Rôtie is a really top-flight Rhone wine;
Domaine Guigal, make excellent drinking Cote-Rôtie
(Brune & Blonde) as well as the top quality single vineyard wines
from
Domaine
Rostaing of
La Landonne and Cote Blonde.
Hermitage are more formidable/powerful wines for long aging, especially good with red meats;
we specialise in the wines from Domaine Jaboulet;
in particular La
Chapelle which represent very good value when compared to some of the more expensive producers.
-
Italy:
Barbera, Barbaresco and
Barolo: Various price ranges from these top
producers:
Abbona,
Brovia,
G.
Mascarello,
Paolo
Scavino
and
Giacosa.
Brunello di Montalcino:
Great quality value from
Altesino,
Casanova di Neri and
Valdicava.
Vino Nobile di Montepulciano:
Elegant wines from
Poliziano
and
Valdipiatta.
Chianti:
Felsina
and
Fontodi
make really
good long lasting Chianti Riserva's.

These are really wonderful
wines:
Campoleone,
Guado al
Tasso,
Ornellaia,
Solaia,
Tignanello,

Notri.

-
NEW WORLD: From Australia we specialise in KAY Brothers; especially their excellent Block 6 Shiraz and great value Hillside Shiraz, as well as the boutique wines from Spinifex.
From the USA our focus is on Dominus which is the top "Californian Bordeaux" blend from the famed wine maker of Chateau Petrus in Pomerol; their 2nd label Napanook is especially worth trying.
From South America we can especially recommend the
top wines of
Almaviva, Concha y Toro and Errazuriz
from Chile, and the
Catena and
Clos de los Siete
wines from Argentina.
- SPECIALITY WINES: For those of you who would like to experiment with something different (but very good), why not select a few bottles of our Alsace, Loire, Lebanese and SWISS wines (yes, the Swiss do make wine and they are very good too!).
