LaithwaitesNewest Review: ... I am not a 4 seasons member. Freebies and 'loyalty benefits': In the third year of buying from Laithwaites I joined their 'Premier club'. The cost of this is £19.95 (Last time I checked) for the year. This may sound quite a lot but each month you order a case of 12 wines you receive two free bottles which are specially selected. Normally if you order two cases in the year the actual value ... more |

Now many of us enjoy a glass or two (or in my case at times three) of wine with dinner or when relaxing with the other half at the end of the day. I can't remember what it was that I had bought online but when it arrived it came with a special offer voucher for Laithwaites. I simply thought 'why not' since then I am very glad I did. The introductory case which contained 6 white and 6 red was £45.50 (this was about 7 years ago now) and each bottle was of a good to excellent standard and the case came with 'tasting notes' saying what each one would be like. This is something I found useful as it helped me to know what to order the next time I wanted some wine. ... Read the complete review

Laithwaites sell mainly wine but you can also buy some spirits, champagne and some beer, but they are better known for the wine delivery. The website www.laithwaites.co.uk is pretty straightforward to navigate and you have several search options available to find the wine you want, each wine comes with notes on the taste, the region, drink before date, alcohol percentage, and style. The home page shows the latest offers and these change on a monthly basis, if you've never used them before you can normally get a very good deal on the introductory case. They also have a four seasons wine service in which you select the type of wine you like red/white or mixed ... Read the complete review

Excellent wine company that really deliver quality wines at more than a fair price. Simply cant get a decent bottle on the high street for under £5 but at laithwaites they blow the competition away with wines that are certianly over £9 in places like wine rack but really good value on here.
Why doesnt everyone buy from them?

I have just received another delivery from Laithwaites so I thought I would do a quick review about the company, not just the wine. **Wine will not be sold to anyone under 18 years of age** ***Drink wine in moderation and be responsible.*** Laithwaites is a mail order wine company offering many types of wine delivered direct to your door.. With their famous saying: 'from the vineyard to your door' **HISTORY OF LAITHWAITES** Founded by Tony Laithwaite in 1969, Bordeaux direct, (as Laithwaite was first known) began its life with a small van and a lot of hard work. The idea was to bring fine wines at ... Read the complete review

I was introduced to Laithwaites via my bank who have some kind of affiliation with the company. www.laithwaites.co.uk. This is a wine company who provide the highest level of customer service in an age where it is forgotten about all too often. If you telephone with a query, you do not get passed to 10 different people before receiving an answer that doesn't actually answer the question. Instead, you are greeted by a friendly, coherent individual whom I am sure, would happily deliver your wine themselves if they could! I telephoned recently to enquire about the wines sent in a "mystery case" that I had had ... Read the complete review
