Tony and Barbara on 50 years of Laithwaite’s Wine

It’s been 50 years since Tony travelled from Bordeaux to England with his first case of wine in tow.

Throughout September we’ve been celebrating our 50 year journey – from a tiny arch under the railway in Windsor, to the largest home delivery wine merchant in the world.

And what a year to celebrate, not only is it our 50th anniversary, we’ve also been named Online Retailer of the Year at the International Wine Challenge Awards. Tony’s even written a book, AND earlier this year the Queen awarded him a CBE for services to wine.

To hear about how all this happened watch the video below.
