Welcome to the Flying Corkscrew online!

The Flying Corkscrew has Moved
Last month we moved from Water End to new premises on the nearby Gaddesden Estate. Our new address is The Flying Corkscrew, Gaddesden Home Farm, Red Lion Lane, Great Gaddesden, HP2 6EZ
Unfortunately we no longer have facilities for 'casual' shoppers but collection of pre-ordered wines is possible. We also offer a free local delivery service on orders of £50 or more. There are a number of ways of buying.
1. By telephone, when you can discuss your requirements with us and we can send the order directly. Our telephone number is - 01442 213155
2. From our website. We will be launching our new website in the next few weeks which will contain the same fantastic range of wines we stocked in the shop, and where you will be able to create a 'basket' of wines for either delivery or collection. However at the moment you cannot buy from this website
3. By e-mail - simply e-mail us your order and we will contact you by return.
4. By signing up for our monthly 'Discovery' cases which will contain a range of wines based around a country, producer, grape variety or style. The first of these will be e-mailed out shortly. If you want to hear about these please send us your email address
5. We will also be restarting our tasting programme and winemakers dinners at venues and dates to be announced. If you want to hear about these please send us your email address
Many thanks for your support over the past 8 years and we look forward to many more years of support from you in our new format.
