"WHITE WINE?"

Considerable quantities of white wines are consumed without much thought being given to their selection. Yet a little care in choosing the right wine to suit your menu will be amply repaid by the pleasure you can give your guests.

We have a large choice of white wines in stock, ranging from the rich sweetness of Chateau bottled Sauternes to the dryest of Hocks, and it is our pleasant duty to try to satisfy every individual palate. Let us advise you on your next purchase.
