What a find! Plenty of interesting bottles in a format that really fills a gap in the market- helping overstocked seller and curious buyer alike! Bravo.
Squelch is the marketplace where fine wine lovers buy and sell directly with each other. No bidding and hoping – just memorable bottles and an honest price you both agreed on, with full pricing transparency and funds protected in escrow. Behind every bottle there’s a story, and behind Squelch there’s a growing community of people who love sharing finds, swapping recommendations and hunting for their next favourite bottle. From rare treasures to genuine bargains, this is wine discovery as it should be: exciting, accessible and shared. Fine wine has been too closed off for too long. Squelch. Opens the cellar door. Fine wine should feel exciting, accessible and shared. Now it does. Squelch. Opens the cellar door.

I had a great experience using this service. I was purchasing a bottle of wine from a private seller and having it shipped to Hong Kong, so the process required quite a bit of coordination between the seller, the support team, and myself.
Because both the seller and I had scheduling conflicts, the whole process took about a month. Despite the long timeline, the customer support team remained patient, responsive, and helpful throughout. Every email was answered quickly, and they were always willing to help arrange the purchase and confirm the shipping costs. The seller was also very friendly and proactive, making the whole process smooth and pleasant.
I really appreciated their professionalism and excellent communication. I wouldn’t hesitate to use their service again and would highly recommend them.

I recently had a nice bottle of wine to sell.
The team at Squelch were great, made the transaction as easy as possible and my wine was sold within a few days. I was very pleased with the price I got . Will be using Squelch again !

I sold some wine on Squelch for the first time. It was extremely straightforward (the site is really well set out, with a great user dashboard). I think Squelch dis-intermediates the auction houses brilliantly: cheaper, quicker and far less cumbersome. Great concept.
I tried to list my highly rated (by Robert Parker) domaine de Marcoux CNP Vintages 2003/4/5/6. These wines are valued around £40/btl. As wine merchant I paid ex cellars "Marcoux" estate back in 2005 and so on..around £23....The wines now are well matured and in perfect condition. I am myself a Chevalier du Tastevin des Grands Crus de Bourgogne(a hilghly rated international accolate) ...and in the wine business since 1977!! (yes I am 76 y.o.....Well Well !!! Squelch automated valuation I feeded has given me from descending price £40 to £15 still over-priced!!!!! They should get rid of this ridiculous automated system if they want to look profesionnel!!!!

My first experience of buying wine through Squelch but very impressed and pleased with the wine I bought. The website is very clear and easy to navigate and making a purchase is very straightforward - I clicked, I paid and a couple of days later the wine arrived, perfectly packed, directly from the seller. Felt very easy and straightforward. I had to confirm that I had received the wine for the purchase price to be released to the seller which gives the buyer protection. The range of available wines is very impressive. Seamless and trouble free - will definitely use Squelch again, particularly for one off special bottles that might not be available elsewhere.
Highly recommended!

Excellent site to buy and sell wines, nice secure and quick processing (and releasing if selling) of funds. Also nice to finally have a platform which charges reasonable fees! Highly recommended.

I’ve had a great experience using Squelch so far. The platform is straightforward to use, and the process of listing and selling feels smooth and well thought out. It’s clear the team is putting real effort into building something valuable for both buyers and sellers.
What stands out most is the support and communication – responsive, friendly, and genuinely helpful, which makes a big difference when using a newer platform. It already feels like a community that’s growing in the right direction.
Excited to see how Squelch develops, and happy to be part of it from the early days. Definitely worth trying if you’re looking for a fresh, easy way to buy or sell wine.

I’ve really enjoyed using SquelchWine.com. It feels less like a typical shop or auction and more like a community of people who genuinely care about wine. Buying directly from other users is straightforward, and the whole process is surprisingly easy from start to finish.
What stood out to me most was how safe it felt. Payments are secure, everything is clearly laid out, and the sellers I dealt with were communicative and helpful, which makes a big difference. Delivery was also quick, which just added to the overall smooth experience.
It’s a refreshing, hassle-free way to discover and buy wine, and I’d happily use it again

Happened across this by accident and glad i did. Picked up a genuine bargain and will be back for more. This time I went quite modest but I'll return for something a lttle grander.

A quick and smooth process. Very good customer service. I was given some old bottles and just wanted to sell them and get the money, Squelch made the whole process effortless. Out of all the website I looked at, Squelch seemed the best option and it didn’t disappoint. Highly recommend.
