Our head wine buyer, Lydia Harrowven, is excited to introduce a truly distinctive collaboration with like-minded East Anglian fine wine merchant Private Cellar. Known for their exceptional sourcing and deep-rooted expertise, Private Cellar brings wines to the table that are rarely found on traditional retail shelves.

This collaboration is the result of a shared philosophy — that fine wine should be both exceptional and accessible. The Private Cellar team of nineteen down to earth and approachable wine professionals includes Master of Wine Nicola Arcedeckne-Butler, with other Masters of Wine in training.

“From the outset, it was clear that Private Cellar shared our values — an entrepreneurial spirit, a sense of discovery, and a desire to make fine wine enjoyable rather than intimidating,” says Lydia. “We have launched a concise range that will be available to purchase by the bottle in selected Adnams stores. Curating this range together felt like a natural step, and one we’re incredibly proud of.”
