Cafe Murano St James
A 161-bin list with 26 by-the-glass options spanning entry wines at £32 to £575, median £72. Piedmont and Tuscany anchor the collection with 29 bins each; Tenuta Fertuna, Angelo Gaja, and Cantina Bolzano each appear multiple times. Sparkling represents 14% of the range, white and red split the core at 34% and 39%. Sussex and Trentino show particular strength among English and northern Italian producers. Sardinia remains thinly represented. Approach by vintage depth—the 2011 Perillo Taurasi at £130 signals serious cellaring—and work through the by-the-glass selection (£9–£33) to navigate the broader list.
Hawksmoor Air Street
A 180-bin list anchored by Champagne (15 bins) and Piedmont (11), with sparkling accounting for 18% of holdings. Entry wines start at £38, median £99, climbing to £1,350. Charles Heidsieck and Pulenta Estate each appear three times. Red dominates at 46%, white at 31%, though Alsace, Campania, Catalonia, Dao and Douro each claim just one bin. Approach by vintage depth—Palmer & Co. 1985 sits at £640—and let the by-the-glass selection (£46–£120) guide shorter visits.
Maison François
A 125-bin list anchored by Champagne's fourteen entries, with Philipponnat appearing seven times across vintages back to 2000's Grand Blanc de Blancs at £290. Entry wines start at £30, the median sits at £80, and a quarter of bottles exceed £120. Sparkling represents 15% of the selection; red and white split the remainder fairly evenly. Burgundy appears only once. Approach this as a Champagne-focused list with Loire support, drawing on depth in the classic regions rather than breadth across France.
The Ritz Restaurant
Five hundred and ninety bins anchored by Champagne (175 references) and Burgundy (84), with sparkling accounting for nearly a third of the list. Louis Roederer appears 51 times, González Byass 17. Entry wines start at £13, the median sits at £185, and a 1903 González Byass Moscatel reaches £2,800. Abruzzo, Kamptal, Marche, Napa Valley and Ribera del Duero each appear once. Approach this as a serious Champagne collection—drink Bollinger or Charles Heidsieck by the glass (£25–£116 range) before committing to bottle.
