Welcome to Stone Vine & Sun
Stone, Vine & Sun Wine Merchants - committed to sourcing superb wines that truly reflect the land they are grown on.
7th April 2020 - COVID update
We are open for business, sending wine out nationally via APC and delivering locally ourselves. Drivers have instructions to place boxes by the doorstep (or elsewhere if you prefer), will not request signatures, and will stand well away.
We have taken two measures to encourage orders: we have reduced the free delivery levels to £50 locally and £75 nationally; and all wines in our stock have a 10% discount if ordered by the unsplit dozen.
As other merchants have temporarily closed (like the excellent Wine Society) or are pushing delivery dates out to a fortnight (like Majestic), and some supermarkets are still rationing wine, we are currently receiving very high volumes of orders. Sadly we are limited by short-staffing here and just as we were catching up on a backlog, along comes the weekend with a fresh slew of orders. Realistically, whilst we will really try to dispatch all orders, we can not guarantee delivery before Easter - as this is a short week. Furthermore our couriers, APC, are having some localised problems (in particular in south-east London where the virus has affected a depot), so please bear with us.
Please note: we have run out of a few popular lines (so for example our Beautiful South case is temporarily suspended) but more is coming: it just takes 2-3 weeks to get pallets of wine here from France. Our supply chain is still working, and we have large volumes arriving from Europe and Australia in the next weeks.
Our shop in Twyford has now closed: given the government advice not to go out we feel it is not responsible to offer collection at the shop. Please note that due to the closure of the shop and short-staffing the office telephones will not be manned on Saturdays. If you would like to order either leave a message or email us at sales@stonevine.co.uk
Finally, thanks for all the orders and messages of support we have received over the last fortnight.
