Wine
The Witchery has developed an internationally renowned reputation for its wines, gaining a prestigious Wine Spectator Best Award of Excellence in 2004 and retaining that award ever since. The Witchery now holds the highly esteemed Wine Spectator Best Award of Excellence, among the many other awards it has collected for its famous cellar.
Its comprehensive list of over 500 wines covers all of the great wine producing areas, varieties, prices and styles with a special selection of seventeen available by the glass.
Owner James Thomson runs a skilled and enthusiastic wine team, who constantly taste, source and buy wines to add to The Witchery's already extensive cellar. Their extensive knowledge is available to guests in the restaurant when choosing from the amazingly diverse list.
As a Chevalier of the Order of the Tasse de Vin in Burgundy, James is a regular buyer of fine wines in cask at the annual Hospice de Beaune auctions each winter and sometimes the wines from his private cellar may be available. If not, then you'll find a wide selection of his favourite Burgundies here.
As well as a large selection of old-world classics from Burgundy and Bordeaux there are extensive selections from new-world producers such as Australia, Chile and New Zealand and a comprehensive Spanish and Italian list.
Champagne is a Witchery speciality with over 30 available, from the Witchery's highly regarded House Champagne Billecart-Salmon Brut Reserve, to the deluxe cuvees of Krug, Roederer Cristal and Dom Perignon.
To complement our wine list we stock an extensive range of Malt Whiskies, Armagnacs, digestifs and liqueurs to accompany the perfect Lavazza espresso. Mineral water is probably the best Scottish water avaialable - Speyside Glenlivet.
