About Us

 

Cachet Wine is a fiercely independent, family-owned Wine Agency Company, established in 1994. We operate from our own modern purpose-built Bonded warehouse and specialise in supplying independent Wholesalers, Retailers & Breweries on a Duty Paid, Under Bond and ex-Cellars basis. This means we are not reliant on a third-party bond… as soon as the wine arrives, it is available for despatch.

We are proud to have built long term relationships with some wonderful like-minded, family-owned wine domaines and estates throughout the world, who are often multi-generational and with whom we share a like-minded vision of what wine should be. We proactively seek out partners who produce wine in an environmentally sustainable way, with stock delivered directly to our HQ in Melton, East Yorkshire.

Central to our buying philosophy is bottling at source. We refuse to ship in bulk as we firmly believe that there is a compromise in quality when bottling in the UK. A handful of producers are Organic & Biodynamic, whilst the others make wine in an environmentally and sustainable way using natural yeasts and ‘Lutte Raisonee’ principles. We are also very conscious of bottle weight, and have switched several wines from 600g bottles to 400g ones with a lower carbon footprint.

Over many years we have also developed our own winemaking projects, working with winemakers to produce our own brands that are only sold to the independent trade, providing the independent trade channel with the assurance of protection from the wider off-trade sector. We do not sell to the major multiples, and have worked with many of our suppliers for a decade or more. We work collaboratively with suppliers, in some cases even choosing which vineyards/parcels are selected and working on labels and packaging together.
