THOMAS - Store manager Tom is a real renaissance man. With his equal opportunities approach he's at ease in any setting: one moment he'll be hosting a high-end Bordeaux tasting; the next he'll be packing parcels alongside his team.

PHILIP - The utterly charming and knowledgable Phil fronts the store at the weekend and is an expert at two things: plastering a smile on your face and getting excellent wine in your car boot. Unfalteringly honest, Phil will let you in on our very best deals.

MARCEL - Gentle giant Marcel effortlessly co-ordinates the Glengarry logistical apparatus. With the mind of a supercomputer, Marcel will jigsaw across the city making timely corporate deliveries and make it back on time for a good peanut butter sandwich.

KIM - Eric is a passionate wine and whisky enthusiast with a thorough understanding of winemaking. More secretively he is the don of Wellington's underground tasting circles, speaking French in candle-lit cellars and advising big spenders.

VIOLET - Violet is the queen of customer service and is the embodiment of service with a smile (and style!). After hours she unwinds by writing screenplays and enjoying the occasional gin.
