One of the first merchants to receive a private liquor license, Daryel Gough began importing fine wines and spirits directly. The shop grew to include, liquor and fine beers of the world, but the focus has always been wine.
The philosophy at Britannia is simple, “Explore the possibilities”. Whether it be a food pairing, a special event, or a regular occurrence, wine selection should always be familiar, yet surprising. And a wine shop should always be a resource; familiar, yet surprising.
It is our goal here at Britannia Wine Merchants to make you feel comfortable, informed and confident in your choice not only of wine but also of the shop itself. No question is a dumb one. We ask them all the time.
Wine like any other art form, is subjective. Begin with what you like, or dislike. Explore why you like it, and expand your taste to fit the occasion. This is where all good wine experiences begin. Then let our staff help you from there. Whether you are collecting fine vintages for your cellar, or planning a picnic in the country, we can help you select the perfect wine.
Come in, look around, find your favourites or try something new.
