What diners say

Michele Di Cecio

An indipendent wine shop with a great variety of "less known labels" from the 5 continents. You can book a tasting too, it's a great experience. They have food (great choice of cheese, you'll be delighted) to serve along the bottles you would like to try. Ask for Matilda, she's a great sommelier undercover.

I love coming here. As a Balham local this wine shop is fantastic and offers a brilliant variety. Staff are always helpful and kind, not to mention the wine list is endless! The cheese board is also really tasty and overall I would recommend coming here for a glass or two.

Went for the Wine Tasting experience and had the pleasure to meet the creator, Mags. Was an enjoyable night. Not much of a Wine Tasting experience that I was expecting but more of a history of what inspired and drew Mags into producing Wine. Enjoyable all the same and drank lots of wine. Would recommend and go again only for the Wine on offer.

This local wine shop/bar is really good in terms of wine selections and aperitivo vibe. The staff is friendly and professional. It’s also dog 🐕 friendly! I recommended it ☺️
