Wine List Introduction

Welcome to our wine list, which we have recently updated. It is divided into two distinct sections as follows:

• Main List: from some of the world’s most famous producers, to the less well

known and fiercely independent ones, these wines have been chosen to offer a diverse range of options to compliment our food. All offer exceptional quality.

• Cellar List: our Cellar List includes some of the world’s most iconic and rarest

wines from around the world. In order to give as many of our guests as possible the opportunity to try them, we have applied a reduced corkage fee to each of them.

The majority of our wines have been selected as they are either entering, or are in their

“drinking window”, although we are very much aware that everyone has their preferences and we have a number of younger vintages for you to choose from as well. Please do not hesitate to ask if you would like to have your wine decanted in advance of your dinner.

We have included general vintage notes as background information to many of the

sections, but have opted not to decorate the list with reviewers’ scores or notes because we firmly believe that the wines speak for themselves! We have a number of reference books if you would like additional background information on any of the wines listed here.

All of the wines listed have been chosen as they are, in our opinion, great wines. The

absence of a particular comment or reference does not imply a wine is any less great than one with a comment.

We are continually updating and extending this list and we welcome any thoughts or

comments you may have in relation to it.
