Welcome to Bacchanalia
Bacchanalia (the business, not the debauched Roman festival) was set up 10 years ago with the philosophy of sourcing the very best drinks we could find & selling them at a fair price. In an age where branded discounted products are the norm, this has led to safe, bland uniformity, from mass produced, confected wine. to neutral over chilled beer. At Bacchanalia we believe the true pleasure in wine & beer is their amazing diversity, subtlety & the very fact that these products are not the same year in year out, even from the same producer. These amazing products can bring great pleasure to our lives, be it a pleasant glass on your own, a few bottles with friends or that stunning special occasion bottle.
We spend the year tasting products (at least a gargantuan 1500 wines each a year & countless beers) to ensure that we have the very best products so you have a great bottle every time from us.
I will add a slight caveat, in that tasting wine & beer is a very subjective thing & so it is beneficial to find your particular favourite styles & we will help you hunt these down. If not just leave it up to us & you won’t go far wrong.
Basically we love wine & beer, & from the inexpensive glugger to the most sophisticated of styles we are sure you’ll enjoy them as much as we have.

WINE & BEER
We have just managed to get ourselves a nice clatter of bin ends on the wine front, these are basically small batches of older vintage wines that companies we buy from want to move on quickly so they can fll their ware houses with the new vintage. The benefit to us is we get these wines at slightly cheaper prices & they have a nice bit of bottle age thrown in. So here goes
Le Cru des Amoureux St. Amour 2008/9 cru beaujolais £5.99
Bech Merlot 2008 £5.99 fruity little southern french glugger
Novas chardonnay/marsanne/viognier 2006 £6.99 rich & lush chilean white
Novas syrah 2005 £6.99 nice depth of fruit & spice
Amayna Sauvignon 2008 £9.99 lovely rounded & intense chilean sauv
Tanagra syrah 2005 £10.99 very creamy & dense fruit with a nice aged gamey touch, exclusive to us
& on the beer front we are very excited to have an order coming in from Marble Brewery, one of the best breweries in the country, both bottles & draught
