About Fox & Vine
An independent shop with time for the bottle.
Fox & Vine is an owner-run wine and drinks shop being created for Canford Cliffs: knowledgeable without being stuffy, selective without being narrow.
Why we’re opening
Buying a good bottle should be enjoyable. You should be able to say what you are cooking, who you are buying for and roughly what you want to spend—and leave with something that feels right.
That is the idea behind Fox & Vine. We are building a carefully edited range across wines, spirits, beers, ciders and alcohol-free choices, with room for both dependable favourites and bottles you may not have come across before.
We will favour independent and founder-led makers where the quality stands up, including producers from Dorset and the wider South.
Independent means we can choose bottles for their quality and story—not because a national range tells us to.
What matters to us
Three simple principles
02
Independent choice
A range with personality, supported by relationships with smaller producers and specialist suppliers.
03
Part of the neighbourhood
A local shop that listens, responds and gives people a reason to return.
04
Responsible retail
Good drinks sold responsibly, with tastings designed for discovery rather than excess.
