Would like to say was a bit unsure as it my first investment but the people I first spoke to at Elite Fine wines put me at ease. Now I have got Daniel Gurr looking after my portfolio he is very easy to talk to and makes you feel at ease, I have his mobile no and you can call him anytime if unsure about anything although I have not met Daniel yet I feel that I have known him for a long time and he has your best interests at heart Joy Amphlett

Rescued by Elite Wines

After problems with another fine wine merchant we were rescued by Elite Wines. They did exactly what they said they would, gave us more than a fare price and were pleasant and professional throughout. So far we are very happy.

All round positive experience from Elite

I've been a client of Elite for 4 years. During this period I've seen my wine portfolio grow from strength to strength with the value of some of my wines exceeding my best expectations!
Ricky Upadhyay has been managing my portfolio over the last 3 months and during this short period Ricky has gone out of his way to ensure that we have built up a strong working relationshp. I have no doubts that through Ricky's knowledge and expertise my portfolio will continue to grow.

I was introduced to wine investment by Daniel about 18 months ago. Over the months he has been a great help and offered me sound advice. To date, we have had one sale which made me a small profit. I am very happy with the service that Daniel has provided and I am very pleased that he has now returned from Australia to carry on being my wine guru!

Ricky Upadhyay elite fine wines

Ricky Upadhyay has guided me into the investment opportunities of fine wines in an elegant and informed way. He has taken me through how wines are chosen and the fact that they advise when the best time to sell them on, time will tell on how good the investment will turn out but it is looking good so far.

I knew next to nothing about fine wines, still have a lot to learn it is a completely new way to invest monies although I have just invested very small amounts, with a lot of advice and help from Thomas who is one great guy,he has had to have a lot of patience with me,he took the time to travel north to meet us, sit down and explain the in and out of wine investment,I had invested a small amount a year ago,did the full sale of the wine,and Thomas made a return of 17.2% for me which I thought was great the way things are at the moment,I will continue to invest with Thomas in the future,I would like to wish him and the team a Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year

I have been a customer of Elite Fine Wines since 2014 and over the last 4 years have built up a varied portfolio of French wines and champagnes. Over the last 6 months Daniel Gurr has helped me diversify my portfoilio through recent investments that are expected to achieve a high yield in the next 12-18 months. I would recommend Elite to anyone thinking about investing in wine.

A whole new world

This is a whole new world for me, but Thomas has helped me gain both knowledge and some confidence. It's been great meeting him and other team members, so I'm taking smallish steps with investing some of our money. The jury is out, of course, since we need to look longer term, but happy so far...

Daniel Gurr at Elite has helped me to put together a great portfolio of fine red wines and vintage champagne. The investment is relatively risk free and high yield, I have a background as a wine shop manager for 8 years, but I would recommend it for anybody.

Use DLG for their marketing, big big mistake for feedback!

They use "Savers Club / Consumer lifestyle" via DLG to get your data and then ring you offering their services.
I gave "Savers Club / Consumer lifestyle" a false name and lo and behold these time wasters are trying to sell to me within 24 hours.
Personally I would not buy from any company who employs data trawling companies who phone day and night and waste my valuable time.
