WINE LIST
In the same way the food menus change with the seasons,
so does the wine list.

As the seasons change, so does the wine list
In the summer the lighter, crisper wines match the lighter more delicate dishes whereas in the winter wines need to be slightly richer with stronger characters to complement the more wholesome dishes.
The intention is to ensure the wine list unites both the classics and well loved favourites with more innovative and unusual wines.
There is a large collection of New World wines, a well-rounded selection of half bottles.
CLUB ALTANZA
Wine is an integral part of the whole dining experience at Wedgwood the Restaurant and something we are extremely passionate about. When we came across Bodega Altanza whilst in Spain in 2009 we felt there was a strong synergy between ourselves and them. Both Wedgwood the Restaurant and Bodegas Altanza are independent and family owned; passionate about flavours and continually striving to bring enjoyment to others.
Tradition and modernity
Embracing the heritage of Rioja, Bodegas Altanza strives to blend tradition and modernity, producing some superb fruit driven wines. We tasted this wine and thought it was superb, so it seemed only natural that we should try to purchase a barrel and bottle it especially for our customers. After much talk and planning it happened and we trust you will enjoy this wine as much as we do.
2011 vintage
Now on to our eight barrell, the 2011 vintage is deep purple in colour, a well developed nose with aromas of cinnamon, cloves, lavender, wild cherries and blackberries. A good citrus acidity and a medium palate with notes of liquorice and dark chocolate. Firm tannins and a lingering finish with a fine hint of minerals mixed with fruit.
“We hope you enjoy it as much as we do”
Paul & Lisa Wedgwood
Club Altanza, Rioja Reserva ‘Wedgwood’, 2011 – £45.00 bottle
Proud and Passionate
Paul and Lisa are as passionate about the wine offering as they are about the food, often picking up some interesting finds on their travels around the world.
They are extremely proud to be still listing their own personal Rioja Reserva from the Altanza winery in Rioja – They met the wine producers in 2009 on a trip to Spain, with a mutual respect and a love for their wine they brought home their first barrel of wine for the restaurant.
Towards the end of 2015, their sixth barrel of Rioja Reserva arrived, a 2008 vintage which is as good as ever.
New and exciting wines
As ever, their commitment is to keep evolving as a restaurant, one of these aspects is to change and update the wine list regularly, to stay on the lookout for new and exciting wines.
Recent additions see a very exciting Pinot Noir from the Patrick Sullivan winery in Yarra Valley, Patrick is a fascinating winemaker and believes in minimal intervention, his wines are delicious! look out for his wine, ‘Fruits of the Sky’
With all these choices the “Deciding Time” before a meal becomes extremely useful.
