THE GRIFFIN INN WINES

THE MORE YOU SPEND THE MORE YOU SAVE !Something of an oxymoron, I hear you say, Dear Reader.....“In Vino Veritas” as Caligula would say ! Unlike the vast majority of wine lists we do not seek to achieve a fixed “margin” on our list of 120 odd wines.The higher the price of a bottle, the less margin we make. The idea is that you will be encouraged to try new and interesting wines from the main list, and the upside from our perspective : in the immortal words of the original Mr Sainsbury “ You can’t bank a percentage !”

Welcome To our encyclopedIa of WIneTHE GRIFFIN WINE CLUB “Usque ad Mortem Bibendum” We launched the “Innovative, Didactic and Sybaritic ” Griffin Wine Club in October 2012 with the intention of bringing a whole new world of oenological delights to our members in an informal and open forum (i.e Bacchanalian!” ) environment, with as much audience participation as possible. We meet every six weeks or so, and in the company of the winemaker and our resident experts, including yours truly, your palate is guided through an extensive range of boutique wines, and those that you fall head over heels in love with, you may subsequently buy at wholesale prices. We provide serious tapas as blotting paper; despite the fact we aim to taste wine we have yet to see the spittoons being troubled at a GWC event. There is an annual membership charge of £30 (which can be for a couple!) For the latest oenological news and future Wine Club events please visit www.thegriffininn.co.uk.

We have added plenty of new oenological delights to the Winter 2016, and, as always, we look for wines that represent great value , often from forward thinking wineries from both the New World and The Old World. Current stars on the list that I would urge you to consider : Any of the Planeta portfolio , the family that have revolutiionised perceptions of Sicilian wines; the unique Pedro Ximenez from Chile(making great white wine from this Sherry varietal) ; from Northern California we are currently loving The Cannonball Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.

One of the Griffin Inn’s glories is a wine list compiled by a true enthusiast, its tasting notes full of missionary zeal, the selections full of interest and character’.
