Villeneuve Wines Ltd

I always enjoy my purchases from here, carefully put together by Alister and Kenny. Variety and quality you just will not get elsewhere delivered in an inclusive and helpful way.

Superior quality wines and spirits with professional knowledgeable staff.

I rarely give 5 stars but this shop deserves it. It's more than a wine shop, it's a community resource. Let me explain:

In a country town like Peebles there are certain shops that serve a much wider area than the town itself. I'm organising my Dad's 80th birthday party and I need glasses; people in my village (Traquair) said "you get glasses from Villeneuve".

But when I called to book some glasses the boss said they're all taken, and they only hire them out when you order wine from them. And I had got wine elsewhere so this conversation was going nowhere.

This is where their natural sympathy took over. He took pity on me and has allowed me to hire a couple of boxes of glasses. This will save me having to buy new glasses -- and it has won them a new client.

As for the shop itself, all I can say is that it looks great. I've been in there twice, each time for a bottle of water (in glass bottles) for £1 each, and each time I've found the staff really friendly and helpful.

Terrific range of Malts, gin and wine. Very knowledgeable staff.

Great selections of wine,gin and whiskey. Staff know their stuff. They also have an outlet in Edinburgh that is great too. They supply local restaurants, so if you taste some good wine with your food chances are you could buy some here.

Great selection of booze ran by a knowledgeable friendly fellow, good place to find something different
