About Boutinot

Boutinot is an international wine company working with more than 150 wine houses around the world, and it also produces a wide range of wines in close collaboration with winemakers in France, Italy, South Africa and Australia, among others. For newcomers, Boutinot is a reliable shortcut to quality wine from around the globe, while connoisseurs appreciate the company's close relationships with some of the more interesting smaller producers that rarely reach the Danish market otherwise.

History & Background

The story goes that Paul Boutinot was buying wine for his parents' restaurant in 1980, but was disappointed with the selection available on the English market and travelled to France in search of better quality wines. He quickly built a strong reputation as a wine specialist and went on to help smaller, lesser-known producers bring their wines to the international market. What began as private wine buying grew over the decades into one of Britain's most respected independent wine houses, with its own portfolio and close producer relationships across continents.

Production & Style

The wines are selected from a wide range of producers, with a focus on quality and regional character over a single house style.

Signature Style

Varied, Fruity, Approachable
The flavour varies by origin, but a fruity, approachable profile often runs through.
