WINE LIST
We take our wine list just as seriously as our food and are proud to offer our fantastic list, built up over 17 years, with the help of our wine merchant Christopher Piper Wines in Ottery St. Mary.
We have changed the layout of our list, as we felt that we often know what style of wine we want to accompany our food, but that a Cabernet Sauvignon, for example, could be extremely fruity and fleshy or dense and tannic, and there is no way of knowing this by considering its country of origin alone.
Grouping by style and flavour profile opens up wine regions and grape varieties we might never have considered and could ultimately lead to a love affair with totally new wines.
We offer nearly a hundred different wines, which we feel offer fantastic value for money at every level, having personally tasted them, looking for wines of real character, which express their roots - regional and grape varietal.
We did not want to just offer big names at a price point. Ultimately we believe that wine, at all levels, should be a pleasure to drink, that along with our fabulous food, will create an experience that will be remembered long after the name of the wine itself.
We don't offer half bottles as the packaging costs render them comparatively expensive, but we have a great selection of wine available by the glass, and we are always happy to give you a cork to take any undrunk wine home with you should you wish to try more than one style of wine with your meal.
