Savvy's Verdict

"The Howard Arms Ilmington wine list has been analysed by SavvySipper. If you want to drink high-end bottles without paying standard restaurant markups, jump straight to the Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru, Les Vercots, Tollot-Beaut 2022 or Vega Sicilia, Valbuena No.5 2019, as both sit at an exceptionally fair 67% markup. For a crowd-pleaser, the Vega Sicilia, Valbuena No.5 2019 scores a massive 4.6 on Vivino and delivers immense depth for special occasions. Solo drinkers win here too, because grabbing a 250ml glass of Babich Sauvignon Blanc 2025 gives you practically the exact same value per milliliter as buying the full bottle. Overall, the high end of this list offers rare bargains while the glass program avoids steep markups."
