Press Coverage
Much to our delight, the national and specialist press keep singing our praises . . .
Daily Mail 16/4/05:
"My Wine of the Week, by definition, the top wine of the tasting. The reason for this choice is that Margaine combines all the best characteristics of the other champagnes on this page. It also happens to be the cheapest, which really surprised me when I phoned up The Flying Corkscrew to find out the details. Ripe, effervescent, celebratory and elegant, this wine has it all. It is a joy to see such amazing fizz at such an affordable price, and I heartily recommend you buy this wine."
Wine International Magazine, 2005
"A young company based in Hemel Hempstead, The Flying Corkscrew shows just what small independent merchants can achieve when they want to. The range covers the bases brilliantly, with over 20 established and “discovered” estates in the Loire and over 40 producers from Australia including names such as Shadowfax and Clonakilla. Service is good too. A firm to watch."
