September 2025 · PHW · 1 min read

We are thrilled to share some exciting news — Hourlier Wines has been once again Highly Commended in the “France Specialist of the Year” category at the International Wine Challenge Industry Awards 2025!

We are honoured to be recognised at this level, among such respected names in the wine trade.

As an independent, family-run wine merchant and importer in Melbourne, Derbyshire, our mission for the past 50 years has always been simple: to bring the very best of French wine to UK wine lovers. Being Highly Commended is a recognition of the passion we pour into our work, the dedication of our team, and the incredible winemakers we represent across France—from Beaujolais to Bordeaux, the Loire Valley to Languedoc.

This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without our loyal customers, who continue to share in our love of French wines. Your support inspires us to keep discovering hidden gems, telling the stories of small producers, and making French wine accessible, enjoyable, and unforgettable.

We’ll raise a glass to this award and to you, our wonderful customers, for being the most important part of our journey.

Santé les amis!
