Kensington's Wine List

From just outside Lecce in the heart of Salento comes this cracking Primitivo. Bright and perky this has a fine zippy line that makes it not only food friendly but very moreish. Cherry skin and cooked damson and delightf...(read more)

This Grüner Veltliner (previously known as ‘Hochterrassen’, now simply ‘HT') is possibly the best vintage of this wine we've ever had: a zippy, peppery white that invites you to keep pouring. A tiny bit more weight...(read more)

Gorgeously textured, but never too weighty - so bright and fresh - this is a delight. Pithy lime and a firm white peachiness are beautifully balanced by a crisp mineral streak. Delicious on its own or with fresh seafood.
