Whirly wine Aperitif bar and wholesale wine prices…..

The Aperitif bar has been open for a week now and although the weather has been against us in the first week with a great deal of running outside to rescue menus from the rain and hail, its been a positive start with an excited reaction from customers and locals, so thanks so much for that.

The Menu for this week is below! This week we introduced some Iberico Salami de Bellota and Locally baked Foccacia from the Elephant bakery in Streatham served with the wonderful olive oil from Velenosi in Marche that I import together with their very individual wines like the LaCrima.

I have changed the wine list this week and added the very unusual Willespie Margaret river White 2011 ( blended with their four main white varietals, Verdelho, Semillon, Sauvignon and Riesling), the Ribas Blanc 2012 from the oldest winery on Mallorca, over 300 years old now as well as the Perusini Ribolla Gialla 2014 from the glorious white wine region of Friuli in North East Italy that borders Slovenia and Austria. Stunning wine, so very fresh and clean with a citrus finish mixed with a little wax from the lemon skin! I look forward to welcoming you soon to the Aperitif bar and if you are interested in buying wines by the case the ex vat wholesale price list is now updated on this website. I can offer free delivery to you if you are a local SW postcode! Lastly the “Wine of the month” page will start again in May with some new wines from Gascogny that I am importing this week! Stunning Strawberry rose that will soon be served in the Aperitif bar very soon at around £1.95 for a 75 ml tasting glass, so not in anyway expensive! Enjoy Whirling!

Whirly wine Aperitif bar opens the 16th April 2016

The new Whirly wine Aperitif Bar opens this weekend, 16th April. The Aperitif bar will promote wines that Mr Whirly sources from all over the world from his close relationship with his small producers and will be served in 75ml and 125ml glasses. I will have tables set up outside so you can sit out and enjoy the sun ( fingers crossed) as you taste some wines and eat some carefully sourced cold foods. The plan is to offer 14 wines by the glass this weekend so you can get a real feel for the quality of wines on offer here in SW17! The wine offering will change every week or even twice weekly and I shall be sourcing some outstandng new wines throughout the summer.  I already have a Bandol rose on the rade from Chateau D’Azur that I tasted yesterday with staff here in the shop and it was the perfect Provence rose. It rvials Domaine Tempier but at half the price! So pop down this weekend from midday to 9pm and Mr Whirly will take you through the whirling process!

The opening hours are Wednesday to Saturday, midday to 9pm, Sunday midday to 5.30pm ( though this might change depending on the demand to open later), closed Monday and Tuesday from Midday to 7pm. I look forward to welcoming you soon to the Aperitif bar!

Mr Whirly
