Wine Man
For those of us who are definitely not abstaining through these difficult days, the Wine Man in Yattendon is delivering all round the area.
Home Deliveries Continue
Firstly may we send our very best wishes to you, your families and friends and hope that you are all safe and well. Thank you so much for the wave of orders that we have received and for the kind and thoughtful words that have accompanied them. Paula and I are working strictly to Covid-19 regulations which means that although we have thought it safe and sensible to close our Yattendon shop, we are still very much open for business and delivering your orders as quickly as possible, even if these are now delivered to your doorstep alongside a call or a text rather than with the normal banter that goes on!
Our website has looked a little depleted over the past couple of days but help is at hand with new stocks on their way to us from our Bond! The site has now been refreshed and has a full range of our regular items which will all be delivered to you by the middle of next week. You can browse the online shop by clicking here. Additionally we have listed some new wines on the site which are normally reserved for our on-trade and events customers. We have priced these sharply so that we can keep this stock moving and you can see this small selection here. We look forward to hearing from you and hopefully help to make the next few weeks pass a little quicker.
As always if you wish to discuss any specific requirements, simply give us a call on 01635 203050.

A message from Lily and Maurice, St Marys Church Wardens
Community Protection against Coronavirus
- Services and Meetings in the church are cancelled for the time being, however, the church does remain open for your individual use.
- You have probably already done so, but please continue to be aware of your neighbour’s possible needs, especially if they are deemed to be in quarantine. We have already tried to identify all such villagers who are known to us, to ensure that their needs are covered. However, if you know of other villagers who may have such needs, please contact any one of us.
