Our Story

“After years working in vineyards and running independent wine shops, I saw how often great wine felt overcomplicated. Bit Thirsty started as a simple idea: make discovering brilliant bottles feel easy, relaxed and enjoyable.

No jargon. No pressure. Just well-chosen wines, honest guidance, and bottles you’ll want to open and share.”

Jack Priestley, Wine Buyer & Founder
