We are delighted to be a finalist in the first Waverley Business In Growth Awards. Even though it's a very rural part of Surrey, Waverley still has over 8000 businesses within it, so to be in the top 12 is something of which we are very proud. 

We have been shortlisted in the Decanter Retailer Awards as one of the top 13 independent regional merchants - vying for Regional Wine Shop Of The Year. Fingers crossed for the top spot, but we're honoured to be in such esteemed company and proud to even be shortlisted.

Last month we were honoured to be awarded a special commendation from The Drinks Business in the category of Independent Retailer of the Year. The judges were impressed by our 'destination wine shop' - so why not visit us and come and see why!

We won... Best Wine Merchant In Surrey! Thank you all so much for voting for us - we're chuffed to bits to be announced as Surrey's favourite wine merchant. It's a real honour - and is especially meaningful as it's voted for by you. 

​

We are an independent, award-winning wine merchant and importer near Bramley in the Surrey Hills. We specialise in parties, weddings and celebrations, as well as having an extensive range of fine wines and spirits, all nestled on the shelves of our beautifully renovated barn.

Call us on 01483 54 84 84 or come and see us - we're open from 9am to 7pm Monday to Friday and 10am to 6pm on Saturdays.

 Here's what other customers and the press have had to say about us...

"Based in a converted barn in the village of Bramley, this shop is the ultimate treasure trove of great drinks, and the Summer and Christmas tastings are hot tickets not to miss......his new English drinks list is a selection put together with Rupert's typical thoroughness and panache." Susanna Forbes DrinkBritain.com

Here at Taurus Wines we love a wedding!

So, if you need help, check out our Wedding Wine Guide and Party Wines List. We've been helping couples choose and plan their wedding wine for 15 years - and it's not just weddings... if you're having a party have a look at our Party Services page for all the glass hire/cool boxes/sale or return information you need! Happy partying!
