SOS wine home delivery service

Picture the scene: it's 8pm on a week-end evening, a busy week behind you and a rare chance to put your feet up, kick back and enjoy a few minutes of rest in front of your favourite (recorded) television drama. You order in a Dominos pizza - not because you particularly like it because there is no better alternative. With normal Japanese efficiency, the pizza arrives moments later but horror of horrors: instead of the meat feast  you have ended up with one of those Frankenstein only-in-Japan creations with errant potato and mayonnaise on top - what might be better called a rubbish bin pizza.

Irked, you at least have the consolation of a decent bottle of wine with which to wash this down. Or so you thought. That was the Burgundy you used for last week's bœuf bourguignonne. OMG what to do: the local liquor store is most likely closed and in any case you are not in a decent state to be seen by the public.

If this ever befalls you just give us a call. As long as we are still open (and we normally open late) one of our sommeliers will recommend just the wine you need and will be around in a jiffy with your tipple of choice. Well, perhaps not quite as quickly as your Dominos Pizza man, but then we do not have one of their nifty bikes with boxes on. We can also supply necessary accoutrements such as glasses should you need them.
