Victoria Apparently the off-licence chain is about to close this site and launch a new service called Wine Rack Direct . It's probably worth having a look at both. You can order wine, port, champagne and spirits here. You can search for a specific wine, browse the shelves or use the best sellers list.

The Help information is accessible from the front page and laid out clearly. There's also a 'virtual vintage chart'. An impressive, very user-friendly site. More than 1,000 wines and spirits are on sale at this virtual wine merchant. There's a monthly page of recommendations, along with a quick-find search if you know what you're looking for.
