Nigel says, ‘Good wine is as important to me as good food. Our customers are King and we source produce for our menus with great care. The Cracking Little Wine Company cares about its customers too, everyone is special to Carolyn and her team and she is a genius when it comes to sourcing something special for your wine list at home. You can trust her – I do, and have these wines on my restaurant menu, our guests love them. I’m delighted to be on board!”
