The Only Three Wines You'll Ever Need
Life doesn’t need to be complicated, and neither does wine. Which is why each of our Pig in a Poke wines is fruit-filled, scrumptious and artfully blended with sheer deliciousness in mind. No fancy language, no nonsense, no snobbery. Blended by experts in Great Britain from the product of Europe’s finest vineyards.
What could be nicer? Enjoy!

Now’s the time to lay aside all those exotic and unspellable words that the world of wine has become littered with. Gewurztraminer, Dornfelder, Garnacha, Viognier, Montepulciano… these are words to consign to oblivion. Because taste is the only thing that matters.
Outstanding Value Wine Made By Experts
We’re Al, Andrew and Chris. We make and sell wine for a living. Between us, we’ve circumnavigated the world 28 times in pursuit of the best flavours, tasted upwards of 40,000 wines, and created or sold over 100 million bottles of wine. Most importantly, we love what we do – which is why we’re still doing it!
His parents wanted him to get a “serious” job, but Al had a smarter idea! Former sales supremo for some of the UK’s top wine companies — not to mention a senior wine buyer at ASDA for 5 years — Alistair knows more than most about how wine should taste. Pig in a Poke is his ‘baby’ — he was its founder back in 2008.
Wine marketing specialists are thin on the ground. Andrew’s CV includes spells with Virgin Wines, Orbital Wines, Oddbins and ASDA, and he has spent the last 15 years working with winemakers all over the world, helping them bring their fabulous wines to market — lucky chap!
All companies have a man in the hot seat and, in our case it’s Chris. Like Al, he cut his teeth as a big-wig salesman for top wine companies (one being Champagne Lanson – quite a pleasurable gig that one!) but of late, it’s keeping the trotters on our proverbial piglet that keeps him busy. Cheers to that!
100% Satisfaction Guaranteed
A “Pig in a Poke” has come to mean a certain thing: a swindle. Originally, it meant the opposite – when you buy something from the market, make sure you get what you pay for.
Seems fair enough, right?
Yet wine, with its confusing jargon and sheer complication, has become a Pig in a Poke to many. As wine lovers, this makes us very sad indeed. It’s a wonderful drink shrouded in rubbish. The time has come to strip all of that away.
Which is why we have watched, studied, and constantly questioned to understand what makes wine attractive and delicious. Together with some of our best friends in the industry we have taken that learning, tweaked and refined it… and – hey presto! – Pig in a Poke is the result.
Pig in a Poke is the only wine to come with a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. We’re confident that you’ll enjoy our handiwork, but if you don’t, we’ll tell you how to take advantage of this pledge.

Tailor-Made For The Outdoors
Pig in a Poke is the ultimate wine for alfresco gatherings of all kinds. Its outdoor suitability is greatly enhanced by the PET format, which will not smash and weighs an astonishing 60% less than the glass version. It’s also the
best-looking PET on the market we’ve seen, meaning that you’ll be proud to serve it at even the most prestigious gatherings. Not only the most sustainable bottle of wine on the planet, but really very smart too!
