Savvy's Verdict

"The Plough at Bolnhurst wine list has been analysed by SavvySipper. If you want top-tier wine without paying customary restaurant tax, skip the entry-level bottles and head straight for high-end options like Domaine Christian Bellang Meursault les Tillets 2023 or Burn Cottage Central Otago Pinot Noir, both served at an unusually low 100% markup. For guaranteed crowd-pleasers, Burn Cottage and San Felice Brunello di Montalcino top the table with exceptional 4.4 Vivino ratings. Budget-conscious guests can also take advantage of 375ml half-bottle carafes like the 501 Cantina di Monteforte Soave Classico for £15, offering true volume value with zero price penalty over bottle rates."
