Our Story

From boardrooms to bottle shops.

We’re Rachel and Rebecca — partners in life, and now in drinks.

After years in fast-paced leadership roles, we realised we wanted something different. Something slower, simpler, more grounded.
A place to reconnect — with people, with good wine, and with moments that don’t need to be rushed.

That place is pour.
A bar, a bottle shop, and an online wine store — born in Ruddington with a love of good wine and good company.

Why we started pour.

We’ve always believed wine should feel welcoming, not intimidating.
That discovering a bottle should be enjoyable, not overwhelming.
And that finding something new to love shouldn’t mean guessing on a supermarket shelf.

We wanted a space where it felt okay to ask questions, try something different, and simply enjoy a drink without the jargon.
So we built the bar we always wished existed — and the online store we could never quite find.

What we’re building

A space to taste, explore, and feel at home.
An online store to help you discover bottles you’ll actually love.
A brand that’s honest, unpretentious, and made for real life — Wednesday wines, weekend toasts, and everything in between.

We’re just getting started.

Come pour with us

Whether you’re dropping in for a glass or browsing from your sofa — you’re welcome here.

This is pour.
Where taste meets ease, and every bottle has a story worth sharing.
