The Winery At Liberty – housed on the second floor of the iconic Tudor Building in central London – is an off-shoot of The Winery store in Clifton Road W9.
What marks out The Winery is the individual wines listed. Each is personally sourced and imported with almost all being exclusive to the company. The wine list is packed with ‘unknowns’ – Mittnacht-Klack from Alsace, Tarlant Champagne, Wild Hog from California and Cheveau from Burgundy.
Strengths are in France – each region well represented by wines worthy of exploration, plus Spain, California and Italy. There is a superb list of dessert wines, mostly from Germany. New Zealand and South America are absent and Australia is poorly represented by just one producer though.
Unlike many London independents the wines are more than affordable with most coming in at under £20 a bottle. Delivery, if you can’t make it to either of the stores, costs £10 per case of 12, or free with 3 or more cases. Sadly no online ordering.

Enjoyable wine tastings. Do it whilst the wife is looking at the frocks and fripperies. We bought an excellent sparkling german white that I would not have considered without the tasting. Having to go back for more of the same as the wife likes it so much.
An interesting choice indeed P. I must try and make one of their tastings.
