Why Slatebin
Slatebin members benefit from the knowledge and long standing reputation of our internationally-respected wine expert – and Slatebin co-founder - Alastair Boogert, whose twenty five year relationship with top world producers in Burgundy, Bordeaux and around the world, leaves him uniquely qualified to both source and assess vintages.
Alastair can advise on everything from the best Bordeaux to lay down to an exciting Burgundy to drink with friends. His frequent tasting visits to some of the world’s greatest producers and exclusive small vineyards, hand-selecting the most interesting wines, means that our members can build up a covetable cellar to enjoy over the coming years.
As well as advising on major one-off purchases, Alastair can track down that elusive or rare wine for the more adventurous oenophile. Many of our members take advantage of our secure, climate-controlled bond to keep their purchases in premium condition, but if you prefer to store your growing collection under your own roof, Slatebin will gladly advise on optimum cellar management, whether you’re laying your wine down for three years or twenty. In addition, we can provide an efficient and cost effective brokering service for your 'liquid assets'.
For anyone seriously interested in creating their own unique wine cellar, Slatebin’s unique blend of insider knowledge, international contacts and personal service make for a combination that is hard to beat. To find out how you can become a member, please contact us.
