Theatre of Wine, founded in 2002 to offer an eclectic, high quality range
of wines from small individual estates are the kind of company who avoid
all the nonsense, snobbery and over-sell associated with wine ‘buffs’.
Today, they describe themselves as ‘purveyors of fine wines, rare
beers and exquisite spirits’ which might sound rather posh but, as
founder Daniel Illsey stresses, “I think a key word to describe us
is ‘honest’; definitely no bull”!

They are passionate about their trade, and are proud of the fact that
their retail shop in Greenwich has become a ‘local icon’ with
its emphasis on interesting and individual producers and avoidance of the
big mass-market brands.
They are regular award-winners, locally and nationally, including being
short listed by Decanter Magazine as one of the best independent wine merchants
of 2006.
They also hold tastings for corporate clients, arrange special events
for up to 250 and deliver locally – an all-round service indeed!
