At Nectar, quality is everything to us. This year, the UK
has ripped up its wine rulebook. In February 2025, the UK's duty system was
completely overhauled, with a total emphasis placed on the alcohol by volume of
each wine. UK wine importers have responded in varying ways with a much wider
range of reduced ABV wines entering the trade.
2024 has been spent working diligently with each of our
winemakers. We continue to ensure each wine accurately reflects the varying
regional harvests, several phenomenal vintages have led to new wines across
Portugal in the Douro, Alentejo and Vinho Verde region. In Marlborough, New
Zealand, our Sauvignon Blanc's will collectively increase in alcohol with a
noticeable strengthening in the concentration of flavour, following one of the
finest vintages in recent memory.
There is no doubt that drinking less but better is here to
stay, and customers are demanding authenticity in their drinking
occasions. We look forward to you reading our curated list and identifying
the reasons why you would consider these wines for your menu.
