I've used Tesco and Naked Wine. Laithwaites are advertising heavily now but I've no idea of others or of their relative 'sizes', I'm afraid.

We've just had a case from virgin and one from laithwaites. Not tried them yet though but my dad has been using laithwaites and the wine society for years.

When I did some reading naked wines seemed to get a bit of a panning, but they have an interesting concept of where the wines come from.

Not sure if you could call them a leading player in terms of volume but Berry Brothers www.bbr.com have a very good website and a very good selection of wines. I heard but cannot confirm that they are one of the only British merchants who will willingly send to the continent.
