Novel Wines is named Best Specialist Retailer - Central & Eastern Europe for the 4th year running

Novel Wines has been crowned 'Best Specialist Retailer - Central & Eastern Europe' for the FOURTH year running at the Decanter Retailer Awards.

Our team is ecstatic to announce that we've won this award for a fourth time. It's a great credit to our winemakers from across central and eastern Europe, as well as from lesser known regions wider afield, and to our team for all their hardwork.

Over the last year, we've continued to invest and grow our range to supply a growing list of keen wine lovers all over the UK. As we progress into Christmas 2022, we're not letting up, importing even more of our own exclusive lines to bring customers the most unique and exciting list of wines. 

We've also extended our spirits range, introducing Moldovan brandy, Bulgarian Raki, eau de vie from Greece, and pálinkas from Hungary.
