In Italy , the word Enoteca is synonymous with fine wines. This is also true in Putney.
With just one glance down the wine list at Enoteca Turi, you will see that the wines here have all been carefully chosen to perfectly compliment the menu; each wine producing region of Italy is well represented.
Giuseppe Turi trained at the Connaught Hotel as Sommelier, and holds the Wine Diploma from the WSET. Passionate about wine, Giuseppe’s cellar is a constant work in progress involving many hours of reading and researching, tasting and testing, Each wine is accompanied by its own tasting notes – no small job when there are over 300 wines on offer.
“I realised the need in the restaurant business to buy important wines from great vintages when they are first released and lay them down until they are ready to drink. This means I can offer my customers the experience of drinking great wines at a fair price – an important part of the Enoteca philosophy.”
Enoteca Turi’s legendary wine list has earned awards as well as praise from customers and critics alike. As Charles Campion put it…..
“At Enoteca they really understand the complex relationship between food and wine. There is a very passionate man attending to the cellar and the result is a very engaging place to eat and drink.”
