A wine company with a Mexican twist registers on Essex Place

A company called The Mexican Wine Co. Limited has registered an address at 19 Essex Place, W4, incorporated on 1 September 2026, according to Companies House.
The registration is filed under SIC codes for wholesale drinks distribution and retail sale of beverages — a combination that could suggest either a shop, an online operation, or both. Essex Place is a short residential street just off Chiswick High Road, so a retail presence there would be a modest but characterful addition to the neighbourhood's drinks scene.
The name itself is an intriguing one. Mexico is not the first country that springs to mind for wine, but the country has a growing wine industry centred on the Baja California peninsula, and specialist importers focusing on lesser-known wine regions have found a receptive audience in west London in recent years.
It is worth stressing, as ever with new company registrations, that incorporation is not the same as trading. Many companies register an address months before opening — or never open a physical premises at all. Still, a name this specific tends to suggest a genuine commercial idea is in the works. One to watch.
