Explore six wonderful wines and four grape varieties sourced from two famous winemaking regions.
The Olde Wine Shades
The Olde Wine Shades is located in the heart of the City, close to Cannon Street and a stone’s throw from Bank station. Join us for a drink at the bar and explore the impressive wine selection with many exclusively shipped and interesting selection of craft beers – perfect for a tasty lunch with friends, drinks with colleagues or tapas with the family.
Our historic wine bar is the oldest in the City of London, one of only a few buildings in the area which survived The Great Fire. With its smuggling trade history, it is where charm and character collide.
