Wine List 
, 136Kb
The Ethos behind the list is purely good drinking. Understanding a wine list is capricious; you will see the constant changes throughout the year.
We have compiled the first draft particularly to fit The Plough, which is to show unusual wines from unusual places and the diversity of the appellations, areas and the individuality of each producer. There is one thing you can be sure, the growers and producers are small, producing limited quantities of the finest examples, some organic, some biodynamic, but all with integrity.
In Champagne, Armagnac, Cognac, and Calvados we have chosen artisan, small family names locally renowned, but otherwise not able to produce the volumes required to market, please be assured whilst value is paramount nothing has been purchased price consciously as nothing has been made with that in mind, what is in the bottle is more important than the label.

is no treacle here! 70ml.
