Guides & Advice
At Lay & Wheeler we are passionate about wine and if you have decided that now is the time to start building your very own wine collection then we’d love to help you.
Between us we have a pretty unbeatable knowledge about wine that has come from decades of learning, tasting and listening. To help get you started, here’s the Lay & Wheeler brief guide for budding wine collectors and those of you just interested in learning more about wine.
Start your Lay & Wheeler Journey
Welcome to the ‘Discover’ section of the site, an editorial offering featuring expert knowledge and insights into all aspects of the wonderful world of fine wine.
Here you will find comprehensive regional guides, detailed vintage reports and overviews of such thorny topics as wine classifications and the ageability of wines – all intended to provide answers and insights to those questions that you always wanted to know but were afraid to ask. Wine shouldn’t be like that, so we’ve compiled a series of articles, guides and videos spanning tasting notes, wine pairings, collecting advice and more. From trends to tips, it’s all designed to enrich your wine knowledge, experience and – most importantly – enjoyment.
Expert Fine Wine Guides
Ready to continue your wine journey?
We’ve been helping the best people enjoy the best wines since 1854. During that time, we’ve found that the more rewarding way to build a cellar is by getting to know exactly what sort of wines each of our customers most enjoy. So we introduced Cellar Circle.
Cellar Circle allows us to get to know your tastes and interests, and help us to build the right wine portfolio for you. Members work with a personal advisor to buy, store, sell and drink fine wine, with various special benefits – including the best storage rates and access to limited parcels – offered on top.
