Bat & Bottle

       
 

 

Bat & Bottle was founded in Uppingham, Rutland, in May 1994 by husband and wife partnership, Ben and Emma Robson.

The dream was to buy estate bottled wines of interest and value and sell them alongside cricket bats from the freshly cut boundaries of the beautiful cricket grounds of England …

The cricket bats finally made it to the crease on our Tenth anniversary, whereas the bottles were an instant success.

Our reputation has been earned through the consistent quality of the wines that we have selected over the years alongside the high levels of personal service at which we deliver.

We have developed a taste for wines made by producers who cherish the history and traditions of their hills and valleys. Such individuals make wines with a sense of place and unique character and we make the utmost effort to visit and be in regular touch with these great personalities, for our own pleasure as much as for quality control.

We do not buy wines for our customers, we find customers for our wines and though serious when we buy the wine, we try not to be too serious when selling it.
