Wine is a great adventure – let us be your guide
Back in 2019, I realised something curious: the most compelling wines in the world were hiding in plain sight.
Most people never experience them. Not because these wines are expensive or rare, but because the path to discovery is broken. It's like Alice tumbling down the rabbit hole but never finding Wonderland.
So we built Ourglass with a simple idea: connect people directly to authentic wines through the eyes of experts who care.
We find the winemakers doing good work – work that reflects terroirs, expresses variety and honours culture. We sample, taste, and research every bottle painstakingly. Then we make each selection to match and expand your palate, deliver the story behind it, and suggest pairings that turn the everyday into something memorable.
That's it. No mysteries, no pretence. Just beautiful wines – wines we love –waiting to be enjoyed.
Don't take our word for it
Fantastic subscription, quality better than the wine society I love my Ourglass subscription! We get a sample of high quality wines that are great value for money. The quality is always better than what I would have chosen for myself. I thought I had a good sense of what I like, but Ourglass has introduced me to bottles I wouldn't have chosen and really enjoyed. I cancelled our wine society subscription after a few months of Ourglass boxes and increased the number of bottles we get from Ourglass. It's miles better!

I really enjoy drinking different wines that I’d never normally have tried. I also noticed the step up in quality when we tried a £12 bottle of Rioja from our local supermarket.

Very good especially if you want to learn and try interesting wines. The tasting notes are excellent.

This is a present that goes above and beyond standard alcohol delivery services, and a subscription service so good you might as well put yourself down for a subscription while you're at it.

Beautifully selected exquisite wine for a good price I love how carefully selected the wines are, delivered with information on its taste, origins and food they can be combined with. The wines are always delicious. We are quite picky drinkers yet we’re always amazed, you get so much for your money!

Wine is a looking glass – one that transforms ordinary moments into something memorable. It turns life's natural pleasures up to 11: food becomes a feast, conversation flows like music, and everything turns to colour. Not just something to drink, but something to discover. As Mr Wonka says, there is no life I know to compare with pure imagination.
