Whighams can trace its history back to 1766. Archives from that year show ‘The Buck’ pictured below landing a cargo of Claret in New York.

The cellars in Charlotte Square became the company headquarters in the late 1800s. In the cellars they were bottling from barrels sourced mainly from Bordeaux, supplying the

gentry of the New Town with wine, whisky and port. More recently, in 1983, the cellars were converted to a wine bar,

which was subsequently extended to what you see today.

Our aim continues to be to source the best possible wines at reasonable prices, offering great examples of grape varieties and regional styles. We endeavour to search for wines from wine makers who are passionate about their

vineyards and produce.

We hope you enjoy our list. If we can help please do ask, we love to talk about wine.

Sometimes I drink it when I’m alone. When I have company, I consider it

obligatory. I trifle with it if I’m not hungry and drink it when I am. Otherwise, I

never touch it -- unless I’m thirsty.”
