About the hosts
Neils Dubro - Founder, Street Wines
Street Wines are a passionate and unstuffy wine merchant, built on the personal journey of founder Neils Dubro. Having discovered wine on adventures around Italy, Neils built up his knowledge of wine through books sourced from charity shops and through landing his first job in wine at Oddbins; a brilliant and unusual company that formed an education of wine and wine regions.
Pairing passion with risk during the recession when the shop closed & Neils was made redundant, he risked it all purchasing good wines he had learnt about, putting them on a list & then taking it around the streets to previous customers, bars & restaurants, forming its namesake, Street Wines.
The business has grown and thrived on two founding principles: buy quality and treat everybody with kindness
Street Wines stayed true to its name and remains available via order and delivery, an important factor in offering unbeatable value. There is no minimum order and delivery is free often on the same day to Colchester & nearby areas. Delivery outside of Colchester is £12. Street Wines specialise in two areas - Their must try list -featuring excellent wines from family producers & their Classic Wine list featuring many different wines sourced from auctions & private collections.
Charlie Rogers - Operations Manager, Three Wise Monkeys and F.B.I.I.
Charlie’s passion for wine began with a trip to the Northeast of France to visit one of the battlefields in Verdun with his Father, where their ancestors had fought in the great war. This was followed by a trip to the Champagne House, Laurent Perrier, where some of his surviving relatives worked.
Since then Charlie has gone on a discovery of places and people within the wine community, tasting and developing a deeper understanding; learning about the specific characteristics that wine brings to a meal and how it can enhance experience.
When it comes to Three Wise Monkeys, Charlie brings quality, careful selection and balance to the wine menu, changed seasonally. The wine list features great wines from local supplier Street Wines, to compliment the food menu. The list represents the best of the major wine regions be it Old world or New World as well as the popular wines favoured by guests and a few really great lesser known choices.
A career spanning over 20 years in the drinks and pub industry, in 2006, Charlie was recognised by the British Institute of Innkeeping and made a Fellow of the organisation and awarded for a number of his efforts in the industry.
In 2018, Charlie and his partner purchased a dilapidated farm in South West France, near the great wine regions of Bordeaux, Cahors and Bergerac. Charlie’s summers are spent doing up the farm piece by piece, benefited by a very decent supply of wine located nearby!
