Whether you are a connoisseur, enthusiast, buyer of en primeur or wine futures, student, investor or an occasional buyer of fine wine or vintage wines, we believe we have developed a site that can be enjoyed by all.

Since our establishment in 2001 our name has been synonymous with quality of service and we have developed this site to be more informative on the products, appellations, regions, châteaux and the industry of Bordeaux fine wine.

Our interestinwine.co.uk online wine shop has in-depth resumes of each Château we represent and comprehensive Tasting Notes, a Blog which updates you on the ever moving world of fine wine – including the release of vintage wines and fine wine prices – as well as detailed notes and maps of the Appellations of Bordeaux.

Our services are tailored to suit you whether you are collecting fine wine or vintage wines for your personal cellar, interested in wine investment, or looking for a case of Bordeaux fine wine.

Bordeaux fine wine has been equated with great quality for many decades and is enjoyed by many across the continents of the world as our client base suggests. Being a UK based fine wine merchant does not preclude customers from around the world. Not only do we encourage enquires from the UK but overseas enquiries will be met with the same enthusiasm as if they were home based.

Amongst our range of Bordeaux fine wine you will find Bordeaux first growths, vintage wines, and French wines.

Château Zhang Lafitte

Lafite is the “it” wine in China, it's the first of the First Growths, the crème de la crème. A certain amount of Lafite's popularity in China appears to be due to its Chinese name, Lafei, which is relatively easy to pronounce. But most agree Lafite and other Bordeaux names win because they established themselves early on as the luxury brands of choice. Indeed Lafite has recently announced plans to create its own vineyards in China. Château Lafite Rothschild has partnered with CITIC, China's largest state-owned investment company, on over 60 acres of vines on the peninsula of Penglai in Shandong province. The Penglai peninsula is on its easternmost tip of the province and wine companies there already produce Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Some say the region is China's Bordeaux. The latitude of Penglai is the same as Bordeaux and the Napa Valley – 37º. However there is already a full scale French château bearing the name of “Laffitte” in Beijing.
