Amber Valley Wines (AVW) has won a prestigious accolade from BBCs Dragons Den star Theo Paphitis #SBS (Small Business Sunday).

Partners Duncan Mercer and Barry Lewis are delighted to have been chosen for this particular promotion. Their business was selected on Monday night and sent their twitter feeds crazy. The promotion will mean a permanent membership on Theo Paptis' exclusive SBS club.


Duncan said,

Amber Valley Wines will be branching out very shortly to launch its new online store 'The English Wine Shop' which will give people the opportunity to try a while range of the very best English Wines and particularly our world beating sparkling English wines.

Barry Lewis added,
'This really couldn't have come at a better time and will give real momentum to our business.'

Amber Valley Wines are also a member of our very own Team #AVYourSay and the third member of the team to win this prestigious award with previous wins from Drew Patterson of Tree Hugger and Kaye Booth of SocialMyna.
