Our Wines
As Italians we take great pride in our wine, and the hand selected wines on our wine list are chosen to really showcase the best that Italy has to offer.
From the fertile north of Italy, to the sun drenched south, our country has such a diverse winemaking history resulting in a huge range of delicious wines with something to suit all wine lovers tastes. Many grape varieties and winemaking traditions used in Italy to this day date back to the Roman times - if it isn't broke then don't fix it!
All wines on our wine list have been carefully chosen by Ferdinando or Alessandro, and represent the variety of the choice, flavour and styles of wines from all over Italy.
Please find our wine list on the back of your menu, and our wines available by the glass on our blackboards located throughout the restaurant.
Our House wine
We are proud to source our house wine directly from Italy ourselves. With our house red (Montepulciano) and our house white (Trebbiano) both coming from our close family friends at the small E. Cirillo winery in the Abruzzo region of Italy where it is bottled, labelled and made especially for us.
Easy drinking and not too heavy, we consider our house wine to be a great match to any of our dishes. Served in 75cl bottles, half litre carafe, and also by the glass.
Regionality
Italy has a wider selection of wines than anywhere else in the world, and incredibly has over 500 different native grape varieties. Mainly because it is one of the most bio diverse countries, with a range of unique soils and microclimates.
Sometimes when selecting a wine it's difficult to know where to start, that's why we make our wine list (on the back of our main menu) as easy to navigate as possible.
On the menu we highlight the region the bottle is from and give a small description of how each wine looks and tastes. If you would like to also know the year of each bottle, or some more advice on wine then just ask one of our team.
a little stronger?
As well as a good selection of wines from almost every region of Italy, we also offer a good array of Italian spirits.
For something stronger, or as a post meal digestivo, look out for our grappa selection that changes regularly. We always stock a minimum of four different types all made with varying grapes and wine varieties.
Please ask any of our team for more information on our amaro selection. Again we always have around 4/5 to choose from. Plus Italian brandy, Strega (our favourite!) and many more.
