Wine Rambler ethics

The Wine Rambler is not a commercial website. We are rambling on about wines because we enjoy it, and no one is paying us for it. We do not put up advertising, be it normal adverts or paid-for-content. Almost all the wines we review here we have paid for like everyone else. If we recommend a wine it is because we have enjoyed it. We do mention where we bought a wine and what we paid for it in the wine review though - to give you an idea about the price and in case you might want to get it yourself. We do not receive any commission from the wine merchants or wineries. Full stop.

Having said that, we might consider to review wines sent to us (we are based in Munich and London). If you would like your wine to be reviewed on the Wine Rambler please do contact us.

A few very clear rules apply to this:

• We do not guarantee to write something nice about your wine. If we do not like it, we will say so - in kind words, of course, but we will.
• Actually, we do not even guarantee that we will review the wine at all or when we will do it.
• Finally, we will say in the review that we received this wine as a free tasting sample.

Do not let these rules put you off - we are actually very nice people and keen to feature interesting wine and winemakers. It is exactly for this reason that we feel we should be clear about how this works on our site. Transparency is crucial and we strongly believe in it.
