The Cellar

Bottles worth
talking about.

Small growers. Honest importers. Nothing on the list without a story.

01  ·  Our approach

Wine that tastes like somewhere.

We're not chasing trophies. We're chasing bottles that taste like the soil they came from, and people you'd want to have dinner with.

That means small producers, mostly. Some biodynamic. Some organic. All of them making a wine that couldn't have come from anywhere else.

Come in for a glass, ask what we're pouring today, and see where it goes.

02  ·  The list

Six styles.
A hundred stories.

Our list changes with the season and the mood in the room. These are the categories you'll always find on it. That is the shape of things.

01 · Whites

Bright, saline, unhurried.

Grüner, Chenin, Assyrtiko. Loire in the front row. Something quietly Cheshire, too.

02 · Reds

Lean into these.

Gamay, Nerello, old-vine Grenache. Reds you can drink an evening of and still walk home.

03 · Orange

For the curious.

Skin contact done gently. Start with a friuli. We'll steer you from there.

04 · Rosé

Dry, savoury, all-year.

Serious rosé from the Rhône and Loire. Not the pool-side kind.

05 · Sparkling

Grower Champagne. Pét-nat. Franciacorta.

Small houses only. Because celebration deserves the good stuff.

06 · Sweet & Fortified

The good long ending.

Madeira, Sauternes, a Rutherglen Muscat for the ones who linger.

Three glasses of wine on a wooden rail with a vineyard behind at golden hour.
03  ·  Tastings

Three glasses.
An hour.
No jargon.

Our small-format tastings run most weekends. Three carefully chosen glasses around a theme, whether a region, a grape or a producer, with cheese and charcuterie to see them through.

Come alone. Come with friends. Come with the person who says they "don't like white."

"If you tell us what you drank last, we can usually tell you what to try next."
