The Table
The wine list
Two cellars on site: Pick's Pick for outstanding value, and the investment cellar for exclusive vintages. Our sommelier will guide you through either.
- Pick's Pick
A portfolio of outstanding value wines for the table or for home, bottled under the Pick's Pick label after many years of co-operation and friendship with some of the country's finest winemakers. Every Pick's Pick red and white is poured by the 250ml glass.
- The investment cellar
Rare limited editions, bottled under special arrangement for The Butcher Shop and not available anywhere else in the country.
- Take it home safely
Our wine bag protects a bottle when you travel, even in the hold of an aircraft. The wine skin keeps it safe over shorter distances.
The list
As published on our current website. Ask your sommelier what is pouring today.
